All Ro Gro's fault. "I haven't seen the images and I need to see them to have any point of view.", bullshit asshole, nobody likes the tuna here. Enjoy your weekend off:

Also, speedtv needs to give up on the "Iceman cometh" storyline for each race. The iceman came-eth, and he came up short. Get over it.

I too hope Mikey returns. I have never seen him race. :wtc:

Thinking about it, I still feel Maldonado caused some of carnage that came before turn one. Should he receive a one race ban as well? I'm on the fence, considering how fucking shitty he's been all season. JV was right, some of these young drivers do idiot shit without the amount of fear that used to be present.

These washed up old guy race drivers doing the interviews needs to stop immediately. I stop watching as soon as I see it. Some of them are just terrible at it, others seem to be trying to match or show up the driver with their status/accomplishments.

Also, sucks for RoGro, that crash was wild. I'm sure Red Bull shit themselves when that happened.

RoGro's ban was harsh. How many times have we seen MSC/Webbo move someone into the grass to defend? I'd been much happier if they had penalized these types of maneuvers years ago, so that they would cease to continue today. To me, RoGro's ban is too little too late; drivers make these moves all the time now. If you're going to make an example of someone, ban Malanado for a day...he maliciously rams other drivers off the track. Now that's fucked up.

This...I like the new format, but it needs to be tweaked. Have a real interviewer do the questions, PLEASE...

I take it back. Pastor beasted the field there. wow.


Still hate the fucker.

Turns out he did jump the start. Said his hand 'slipped off the clutch'

That and hitting Timo Glock got him a 10 place grid penalty for Monza.

Yet Roman is the one with a one-race ban for his incident....

They're going with the 'broken clock' theory at this point, I guess.

Not the first time Romain did the same move at the start this season though, Monaco with Schumacher springs to mind I'm not sure if there were more. He's also been involved in a bunch of other incidents like Melbourne with Maldonado. Dude needs to learn a lesson.

I still think pastor has been a bigger, more repeated offender, yet seemingly skates on any real punishment. Certainly nothing like a race ban.

I agree that they've both been dire, maybe the FIA just decided to make a point here.

Pastor, being Pastor. The second half of the penalty that he got which we were not shown on TV:




Kinda BS, Pastor had 3 penalties last weekend (Blocking Hulk, Jump Start and Pastoring Glockdog), only a -10 spot penalty and a -3 quali pos from the last race to show for it. I always thought the penalties were of the order of 1/5/10 positions, +20s or DSQ, this -3 is a new one for me.

He needs a "weekend vacation" at some point too.
