This seems like a ridiculous decision to me!

Bonkers!

Las Vegas setting up to be the clusterfuck it was to be expected.

Drivers won't be tucked up with their teddy bears until 6am local. If they can sleep that is.

I feel for Ferrari. Vasseur quite right to be angry at being penalised for something that wasn't their fault.

Carlos Sainz gets a grid penalty for the damage that a lose man hole cover has done to his car. Apparently the stewards spent over three hours going through the rule book to avoid dishing out a sanction that clearly isn’t his fault.

How can they follow that part of the rule book to the letter of the law but Michael Massi can make up the rules of a safety car in Abu Dhabi on the fly?

Gave up watching F1 after that Massi shitfest.

Nobody saw this weekend being a farce did they.

I’m away anyway so won’t be able to watch it. Probably for the best.

Be piss funny if they have to just cancel the whole thing.

 

[Roger Mellie]

Terrible that they've been penalised for that

 

[TinFoilHat]

After today's farce will driver fatigue kick in for P3 and qualifying?

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Apologies, not understanding the time issue and definitely cannot understand why Ferrari would get a penalty for a fault caused by F1?

Seen some clips of the "opening ceremony" (?) the other night. F1 will never knowingly undersell itself, will it? I suppose, on the assumption that it's a night race (haven't checked), it'll look stunning.

Yep.

0600 Sunday morning for us.

Lots of angles of the giant sphere and other Vegas attractions in the background whilst Max strolls to victory.

Bugger that.
