    I love the way he just casually said on the radio that he was upside down.

    You make your own luck, not for the first time he had a crap start and ends up back in the pack fighting instead of looking at the back of car 44

    How did bottas go from 6th to 4th?

    Restart order was taken from the positions when the cars passed Safety Car line 2 which is just after the pit exit. Since the red came before everyone passed Sector 1, that was the most recent fully completed timing line they could use.

    Didn't make much difference for Bottas in the end anyway :pac:

    LEC overtook him on the inside of turn 1. VET had to dodge him and he thinks it was too aggressive.

    LeClerc I think.

    Vettel took evasive action when Charles dumped his car down the inside of him. He was saying he should have just let the crash happen.

    I think that is what he was talking about, referencing Austria and a similar incident too.

    Feel sorry for DK, he didn't do much wrong in either incident

    Is he not the one who technically restarts it?

    Yes, but only after the green light. I'm sure the on-track lights were green and there's probably a slight lag in the TV feed.

    He becomes the leader once the lights on the Safety Car goes off. He can then accelerate whenever he likes once he doesn't slow down again or catch the safety car. I don't think the track lights (meant to be flags) change until they've passed the green light on the start/finish line.

    Le Clerc can be crazy reckless at times, couple of occasions he almost wiped himself and Sainz out there

    The lead car can gun it before the safety car line once they don't slow down again

    10 seconds was harsh enough but he did cause that accident he was too far back to lunge up the inside.

    Did he lunge though? Kind of looked to me like he waa just there... Not like he dive bombed down the inside. I'd have put it down to racing incident given it was in the first lap. Felt the penalty was harsh.

    I'd be hitting Force India with a massive fine for that. ****ing nonsense.

    EDIT: Racing Point. I'm sure Force India wouldn't be too worried. :P

    Perez should have pulled over much quicker. A 3 place grid penalty for next race is warranted.

    That Marshall had a death warrant. Could have been a tragedy after the miracle earlier in the day.

    Ricciardo a lucky boy as well. Kimi should've had the black and orange flag earlier as well. If we can see something on the broadcast the stewards can see it too, enforcement of simple rules shouldn't be let slip.

    Racing Point needed to tell Perez to park that car, when an engine blowing smoke like that there is always a risk of fire or sending oil all over the track.

    There's a big part of me that thinks Grosjean's fire was caused by the rupturing of the Lithium batteries in the impact. These sit behind the driver's seat right where the chassis split
