2026 Austrian Grand Prix - Spielberg, June 26 - 28

It feels extremely unfair. F.e. to Antonelli.

Also, Russell was immediately talking politics, influencing the stewards. I thought this was not allowed anymore?

Why did they wait 22 seconds, and why does it matter. In situations like this, the double yellow should be retroactively applied to the moment the car was in the barriers. You should not be encouraged to try and squeeze through.

It will be a huge kick in the nuts if Antonelli somehow finishes ahead of Russell on pure pace tomorrow. That's a serious upshot for Kimi's psychological battle. I mean it hasn't gotten ugly yet... but it will. Just a matter of time.

I think the argument probably is it should have been a double yellow.

But by the rules George did nothing wrong.

Think when Anthony showed the striped yellows in the in lap it looked clear and George was okay by the rules

From f1:
"Single waved Yellow flag:
Drivers need to reduce their speed, cannot overtake and must be prepared to change direction, due to a hazard beside or partly on the track. It must be evident that a driver has reduced their speed during the relevant sector(s)."

We can argue Russell was never prepared to change direction due to a hazard as his lifting was insignificant.
