2014 Formula One World Championship - Round 2@ Sepang

I partly laughed at you mistaking them. I partly laughed at the ludicrousness of your post. Nico and Seb were chatting happily in German. Lewis was just enjoying the moment. You were seeing things that weren't there.

German sounds angry at the best of times, maybe he thought they were having an argument.

Dan's first three races stuffed up by the teams incompetence. Welcome to Red Bull

Don't agree that Australia was the team's incompetence. It was clearly calculated and pre-meditated.

Typical race for Button. 10th to 6th and no-one really noticed...

Vergne, Kimi, Ricciardo and Kev all started ahead of him and had issues during the race, so Button did nothing to get those positions

Maybe yeah, the team knew about the issue during the race and were told to address it, but chose not to

Very tough but you can understand why the penalty is so severe. Stoked with the way he has performed so far for Red Bull.

Also since when did Christian Horner start dating Geri Halliwell?

 

[ManWithNoName]

No it doesn't, as the driver has no way of knowing where other cars are in the pit lane, they just go when the team says go

I meant in that you can disadvantage another driver by doing it and getting ahead. So that's why penalising the driver makes sense in that case. Would be unfair to the bloke he jumped otherwise.

They've gone penalty happy, the penalty to Magnussen for tagging Raikkonen was ridiculous, looked a racing incident for me.

 

[tandino]

A wheel is probably the easiest thing and the worst thing to come loose in pitlane, in terms of the potential damage it can do. I think the penalty is appropriate.

 

[little graham]

Unsafe releases can do a lot of damage.

remember this?



Redbull got leniancy, IMO

Yeah that's fair enough, in that case I'd rather just a drive through penalty rather than the penalty extending to the next race.

Especially when you consider Kob taking out Massa at the start in Melbourne which got no penalty

 

[imadodgyumpire]

I'm ok with Magnussen getting a penalty. While it might not be intentional, it stuffed Raikkonen's race. A strict ruling on this hopefully will the make the driver behind think even more carefully in a similar position.

It's been known since, that Kobayashi brakes failed.
