Serves George right trying to pick his own penalty, not smart at all, needs to read the rule book and learn the penalties available to the stewards :lol:

Horrible viewing this

Russell drive through and then still needs to do two stops 😂
Aye. Things seem to be coming to a head, this just isn’t working.

Merc all in on a red flag free pitstop? Big gamble, does not seem to work out right now.

All RBR want right now is to ensure LEC takes points off NOR. A red flag would be great but this will also help significantly.

I don't blame RUS. This track should be scrapped.

I think Russell still needs to make 2 stops.

apparently there's a 30s penalty for not doing the 2nd stop. So Verstappen could take the flag 1st, if he likes. Result will be the same as if he pits.

The 2 stopper made this race even worse.

Mmm this is just not quite right.

If anything they need to find a way to make quali the sort of highlight. Pay out a few WDC points for qualifying in Monaco. A Pirelli Paycheck for pole? Halve the race points payout and dish them out in quali?
