true adder
I smell a rat "limited video evidence at the time". Basically never do clear black and white infringements like this need to be investigated after the race, they always set multiple cameras up on pit exit to catch things like this
Just seems to me that it got left till after the race to give Max a chance to overcome a 5sec penalty in the race and make it null & void like it was

Taz is right though if a driver goes over the pit exit line slam dunk penalty, no argument

Which is strange cos 99% of the time they have multiple cameras on pit exit for this exact reason.

"to prevent one company owning two F1 teams" like Red Bull doesnt own two already
trim girder
and technically merc team is broken down in to 33% split of Merc group, toto, and Ineos. so not really "owning" two teams if its merc group going for it as Flavio states its merc not toto put the offer forward
true adder
Can someone explain the difference between merc buying into Alpine vs Red Bull owning Red Bull & 100% of Racing Bulls?
Cos the merc offer is being painted as bad for the sport but those same people are fine with Red Bull and Racing Bulls?
sinful kiln
the article mention say Supporters of Red Bull would suggest that the Austrian company bought their second team from Minardi at a time when finances in F1 were desperate, rather than the profit-making teams they are now.
i guess it was more OK that a company owns two teams back in 2006 compared to today.
true adder
So either Red Bull sells Racing Bulls OR Merc can buy a stake in Alpine

according to chatgpt ```Typical long-term averages for Nürburg / the High Eifel area are:
Around 800–1,000 mm of precipitation per year
Roughly 140–160 days per year with measurable precipitation (rain or snow)
In the warmer months, expect about 15–17 rainy days per month on average```

who's driving the 3 in Q3?

it will be Juncadella i think
Max and Lucas Auer can't drive in TQ3 now, cause they did TQ1 and TQ2
dawn siren
ok
wraith stratus
although this next session now is just Qualifying 3 for all cars
TQ3 will be after this session
wraith stratus
basically TQ1 2 and 3 are just for the GT3 cars or cars of equivalent power
the rest of the cars qualify through the normal qualifying sessions
but the GT3 cars can run in the normal qualifying sessions as well
if that makes sense
N24 Qualifying can be a little complicated
dawn siren
top qualit for the fastest cars, then they can treat the other quali's as practice.
