Really no different than a safety car. Guys who took a full pit stop prior to the SC lose out to guys who haven’t pitted and do their stop under the SC. To be fair, all the teams can change tires if they want, assuming they have fresh tires left. | |||

It is entirely different than the safety car, IMHO. Even behind SC you lose some time and positions. Diddling around with car while parked in line under red costs absolutely nothing in terms of either. Sure, everyone can change tires, but that doesn't mitigate the huge change to the race order created by timing of the red. Again, far more than a SC. Is there any other racing series where this is done?
Is it just me, or does pit lane look super narrow as well? Almost like the "second" lane is missing. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

This track looks like a driver's track, and if you haven't got the goods, it will really show. Most of the drivers said they really liked the track. We shall see how it all shakes out. | |||

Insane race. Maybe best of the season so far. Hopefully Mugello makes another appearance on the calendar. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

I DVR’d it, and even though I always pad 1/2 hour, I still missed the last 2 laps. Oh well, it was pretty much over by then, and I got to miss Hammy’s BLM stuff. | |||

Pretty good race and certainly the wildest. A lot of the suspense at the front went away on lap one when Max went out. Nice to see another new track that is a real race track. This was almost worse for Ferrari than the last two. No DNF and Vettel was near the back and Leclerc faded back there even after a fortunate qualifying position and a lucky break with the safety car put him back towards the front. They were slow and ate tires. I'm sure they can't wait for this season to be over ASAP. Next year may not be much better but it couldn't be much worse either. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

Wild race. Dvr didnt record the end but saw the Important stuff. | |||

Not to be contrary, nothing important about this race. Too bad, I love fast tracks and Mugello is fast. Beautiful too. Two revelations may be Stroll is looking halfway competent lately and Bottas is just getting worse and worse. F1 is floundering. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

When Hammi put on that "shirt" at the end of the race, I shut the tape OFF!!! This shit needs to stop, and right NOW!!! | |||

He's currently under FIA investigation for it, to determine if it breaches any rules about political statements. IIRC, the rule states that it can't be on the cars, but may not specify driver apparel. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

The FIA has maneuvered themselves into a corner on this, and there are no regs w/r/t what drivers can wear. The sponsors with logos they are paying a fortune for on firesuits are equally screwed. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

They won’t do anything to a soon-to-be six time world champion, who is also the only black driver in F1. They started all of the pre-race kneeling and the end racism messages because of him, basically making an exception to the FIA’s long standing non-political stance. He’s untouchable now. | |||

| Thank you Very little  |

There ya go.
Hamilton will not face FIA investigation "While the sport's governing body is to consider whether the T-Shirt breached its rules, it has ruled out an official investigation." That is quite the hair to split. Toto quote from earlier article:

It's comforting to know that Merc is the source of universal truth as respects human rights and politics. I would have thought the two are necessarily joined at the hip, but that's just me. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

Not that I needed it, but more reason to hate Chinstrap and Mercedes Benz. | |||

Chinstrap's "protests" are so off-putting to me. Between him and the rest of the sport, it's been nothing but a distraction. I was an avid F1 fan since 1986. I've tuned out completely this year. | |||
