however the team said that if a SC was deployed they would have asked Lando to wait 10s behind Oscar and box after him because doing another slow lap would be too risky.

with so many crashes Oscar had a small chance of staying ahead but i guess all the rookies have crashed out by then and now the WDC is 8 points + the Max factor

I think he got caught out by the safety car coming in and just wanted to get one last hit of brake/tire temp before getting back on the gas.
Yeah . WTF is spray ? => https://www.reddit.com/r/formuladank...konnen_energy/

This braking sharply when under starters orders on a running start is getting silly. Someone with a working brain wouldn't risk his own car getting rear ended and making a 'bad decision' on this doesn't even come into it, it's actually a no brainer not to do it !!

Talking of the opposite of near misses have you seen the short vid of the M2/911S huge fireball crash on the 'Ring.

I know you are being tongue in cheek but if we think seriously about it the real question is, how much would Horner have to pay him to get him to downgrade? He's in a multi-year deal with Audi, it wouldn't be cheap to buy him out.

Max disagrees with you.

That's about the size of it and it looks like the M2 driver was a beginner, hope they were track insured.
