Webber receives post-qualifying reprimand

**Ferrari_Fanatic** · 25th July 2010, 02:17

Red Bull’s Mark Webber has been handed a warning by FIA Race Stewards for returning to the pit lane too quickly at Hockenheim on Saturday.

Following the qualifying session, which finished just under ten minutes late due to the Q1 stoppage for Vitantonio Liuzzi’s crash, all cars – under sporting regulations – were required to enter the pits no sooner than an electronic countdown timer, displayed on their steering wheels, had reached its end.

However, having confirmed that Webber travelled between the two Safety Car lines (one located after Turn 1 and the other before the pit entrance) too quickly, stewards handed the Australian an official reprimand in Race Control.

The Australian, who has qualified fourth for Sunday’s race, receives no other penalty for his breaching of Article 30.13

now if that was Alonso they would have gave him a 10 grid penalty!

jokers!

They would have waited until the race starts and give him a drive thru.

As frustrating as it may be, we need to focus on the things we can control. Sour grapes can ruin a team and it's fans. Fantastic showing by the team in qually and in practice. We're heading in the right direction, so lets keep our spirits up.

No, they would've waited until 1 or 2 laps before the Safety Car comes out during the race, then announce Alonso's drive through.

We have to take the higher ground. As much as it sucks, and as much as we disagree, lets stay focused and keep our eye's on the prize. Blinders towards the penalties, and cheers for overcoming the hard times. We're Ferrari dammit! We overcome. We're a team, so lets start acting like one.
