They are discussing the amount of money RB are willing to pay to avoid the penalty.

I hate penalties too but this was a cracking race and Ferrari pitted Charles too early IMO so there was no way he was going to keep Max behind him with worn hard tyres, it was painful to watch his lead evaporate like that and he was pretty fed up on the podium, not surprisingly. Seb did all he could have done after the pit-stop dramas and nearly got Bottas too, but for Red Bull to beat us to a win with a Honda engine is not a surprise to me and I said so a few races ago. Both our drivers drove great races and deserved better. I await the official outcome but after the penalty with Seb in Canada, rules are rules. Unless they want to reinstate Seb's win , of course!

One point to @Greig ... you’ve said there’s lot of media for the drivers to follow up when asked abt news on investigation.
But at Canada vet vs Ham, penalty was instant ???

There are rumors that the decision will be taken only after Brexit

**Greig** · 30th June 2019, 17:31

Wasn't instant

Well, that's that. No decision ever.

I keep asking the same thing. He said it took 10 laps for the Hamilton penalty, at roughly 1 minute a lap that’s 10 minutes, we are over 2 hours now and still no decision. Trust me...if Hamilton was involved this would have been decided already.

I mean during the race itself..?? May be after 5L?

**Giallo 550** · 30th June 2019, 17:34

They're probably basing their decision on whether they can escape the Dutch fans safely.

I don't run the FIA so I have no real idea how long these things take, but it took hours to give Riccardio penalties last week and nobody was crying about how long it took or on about Hamilton

I take back what I said about Honda engines early this season-they are so much improved! McLaren are also much improved though now with Renault power so go figure?

Waiting for FIA stewards decision is agonizing!

FIA stewards ajourned for dinner.

They had delivered their decision to the media on a Williams

**nani_s23** · 30th June 2019, 17:47

So Leclerc and Binotto were about to leave and all returned back to the circuit...!!

**TonyRizza** · 30th June 2019, 17:48

Fia fixed as ****, F1 is corrupted

**nani_s23** · 30th June 2019, 17:49

Stewards decision: No further action. Verstappen keeps Austria win!

**nani_s23** · 30th June 2019, 17:49

Not good ...!! I would say again n again. F1 doesn’t care ferrari anymore.
If SM was around, things would have been different.

**Giallo 550** · 30th June 2019, 17:52

The double standard in this sport is disgusting.

I thought nothing could make me angrier than gifting Hamilton the Canadian GP. This takes the cake, the FIA is corrupt, a complete joke. There is no consistency at all, the only thing consistent is screwing Ferrari on the regular. Sickening

**nani_s23** · 30th June 2019, 17:52

I want to see FIA document what they state as the reason.
If it’s ferrari car they say red car didn’t leave enough width.
When it’s other car, there’s plenty of space for ferrari to use run off track.

Ferrari should show they aren’t here for money
