RBR sending Perez out again is some passive-aggressiveness at this point.

[–] evanuggetpi@lemmy.nz 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Farcical. That rule will change. And Perez is done. He cannot have that seat next year with this form.

I wonder if we can vote for Perez as the clown of the day.

Wew what's Perez up to today. Gonna pick up penalties like Infinity Stones.

[–] genuineparts@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dude feels the pressure so much that he's driving himself out of a RB seat.

What is even goin on with Perez today. Clumsy start resulting in early pit stop to drop to back of grid. Picking more penalties on the way. Retired. And now comes back and retires again after one lap.

I heard this would be a 2-stopper; Logan getting them out of the way early so he can spend the remaining laps hunting down Max. /s

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

He needs to be banned just for being a reincarnated Latifi

What the hell? How can be unretiring a car to serve a penalty, then retire it again be in the rules?

[–] Microw@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Because there is no definition of "retiring" in the rulebook. Which should have been on their radar years ago, you see it regularly how cars pull into the pits and the official tracking keeps showing them as "in the race" and not "retired".

[–] Sentau@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

They did a pitstop and served the 5 seconds and then retired the car. This is why he was out there for 2 laps

Fucking hell Perez. That's not how you keep your seat.

[–] June@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s so bizarre not having both RBs on the podium at the race that they win WCC

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeap, but Perez helped secure the WCC by taking out Logan /s

Perez DNF?

Edit: yes, he’s out

[–] genuineparts@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

Perez coming back in to serve his penalties? Or he could pick up some more on the way :P

Torpedo Perez showing his worst driving. He’s having awful races lately

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Agreed with Jolyon. That was brutal. Not sure I agree with the FIA.

[–] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The just showed a clip of the actual infringement - into the pits, overtaking Alonso.

Ngl....that's a high IQ move by Red Bull

[–] genuineparts@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I kinda doubt it'll work out the way they want, the other teams definitely will have words. And if it works out that will be a change in regulations.

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

If it requires a change in regs, won't matter because the strategy will have worked when used.

Sargeant penalised for new car after Q1 crash https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.official-grid-who-starts-where-in-japan-as-sargeant-is-penalised-for-new-car.X4qn5ydpjjHBscTrUrMwn.html

the damage to his Williams was such that the team have had to build up what the stewards consider a new car for him. [...] it means the American rookie not only has to start from the pit lane, but also receives a 10-second time penalty.

But Will Buxton on pre-race stream said that Williams got penalized for starting work on his car too early?

EDIT: He did tweet this out: https://x.com/wbuxtonofficial/status/1705774169374257291 (Nitter link) so maybe I misheard or something.

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Either way, hopefully Sargeant's done in F1 after this race. He's basically the reincarnation of Nicolas Latifi.

[–] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man what is Perez doing anymore

[–] fiah@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He wants to play bumper cars or something!

Wow. More than a few DNFs today.

Edit: Williams out, plus Stroll, PΓ©rez, Bottas.

What a move by Charles

Max, 20 seconds ahead. Red Bull Constructors champions
