Only saw this today. https://www.youtube....h?v=rgqPlco9ais


Jpm is right. In hindsight it is absolutely clear that the red flag immediately after the crash was desirable if the goal that the teams/ FOM decided ahead of time was to finish under a green flag.

Damn, sad to read reports of Latifi getting a load of abuse via social media, including death threats.  :blink:

He was just racing and made a mistake.

Spa is putting the 70000 ticket buyers into a lottery for 170 seats to the 2022 race as compensation for the parade race in 2021. Why not make it only slightly worse and make the 70000 people go through a squid game contest for one seat to next year's race?

I'm actually cool w/ Toto & LH skipping out on the Gala but I can see why it rubs folks the wrong way.  Toto and LH has personally congratulated Max and RB but have always said that their beef is with the FIA which skipping on the Gala is just that...

I've always thought that the Red Flag should've been called once Latifi wrecked and also shows how race control wasn't really consistent if you go back to Saudi Arabia...2 Red Flags but when marshalls need to clear parts on the track and they don't red flag it?  Makes no sense.  Latifis wreck was perfect for a red flag situation and I lambast the reasoning they didn't call that.

Either way a shame how Latifi is being treated.
