LOL he was on the same line as everyone else

He was on the racing line, the driest line

When it's the only car on track :rotfl

He lost his rear ( aquaplaned) then touched the white line a little and totally lost the car.
Look at Verstapen behind him he almost went out by exact same way

RB wt a year they r having, they've always been lucky.
Ferrari penalties, DNF's, crashes, spinning.... are helping them alot

Think you need to watch it, he did not lose it on a white line

That was the cause. Exactly as ME in Sauber before him

Exactly. Long way after that. Incar cam shows how problems start way after white line.
Weather was bit too much. So many crashes within few laps is not normal. Ferrari lacking downforse and suffering more.
Vet and Kimi spinned - what a terrible drivers we have right?

Penalty for Massa and Ricciardo

5 seconds for both

All those complaining drivers... :-s

Feel proud to have seen Senna winning in Spa '89 with Nigel at P3 and this unbelievable classic at Spa in '98..My god.. those were real heroes :thumb

Forgot Spain 96. Epic!

5 seconds? Thought should have been more than that.

Horner said he had a puncture. Would love to see his face now

this is a joke. 5 seconds for pitting when the pit lane is closed.

Wasnt Massa black flagged for doing the same thing Ricciardo did 10 years ago or so >?

Is there a 2h limit in place? And after 2h the race is flagged of even if like 30 laps remain?

How does that work? Is the 2 hour limit only counted when they are racing and stopped when red flag? Did the delay before the start count on the 2 hour race limit? Or is it like hockey, when the race stops, the 2 hour limit clock stops?

When its red flag then its 4 hours, the 2 hour race timer gets stopped during red flag.
The 4 hours is the absolute limit, even under red flag after that the race ends.

race time is stopped when it's red flag. Delay to start would count for 4 hour limit.

Thanks.

On formula1.com it says:

LAPS 21/71 - 36:47

Does that mean 36 minutes race time have gone on the 2 hour limit?

Yes, 1 hour and 22 minute of racing time left.

So angry kimi is out just before full vets :furious

What was the point of red flagging the race? Nothing has changed, conditions looks the same
