And the first fines for swearing thrown down.

Alex Albon got 150K and 3 penalty points.


Nonsense. Guys are going 200 Miles per hour taking turns and are expected to be leave it to beaver on team communications. That is horrible. It's not like the TV can't beep out the swear words. I mean they have done it for 25 years now.

Well that will make press conferences this week interesting. I think rally drivers protested by all of them going silent in press conferences when it happened to one of theirs.

That's pretty well what Max has been doing since his fine.

Both Merc drivers just got bumped a spot each for getting out in the pit lane too early in Q2. So Leclerc on the front row and a freaking Alpine on row 2. Don't know why it took so long.

Feels like a race where Oscar drives off into the night, which would really tighten up the drivers standings.

Combine this late penalty with the lap deletion for hulk, that kept albon out of Q2, after it had ended, you have to wonder if they're just making up the rules as they go.
