If Alban receives a penalty the scores will be updated

I was wondering that too. Must have had the three monkeys as stewards this week

Just checked the results again. Didn't Alban
receive a penalty or was it a 5 second with no effect.
He could have been dq'ed

No penalty for Albon, Dare.

must me legal. Makes sense to me

Racing Point could still be dq'ed if Renault's protest is upheld.

I think they reported that the stewards ruled Bottas had stopped and didn't gain any advantage. In fact, it cost him several positions.

I did just read that:

Bottas jumped the start - No penalty

Albon's guys used the blowers to dry his starting box - No penalty

Haas told their drivers to pit for tires - Both drivers demoted one position.

Logic, F1 style.  |-(

I suggest the stewards have not been able to get eye tests during the Covid-19 lockdown but their hearing is fine.  ;)

Bottas seen to be moving but no sensors were triggered, so timing dept says, hence hooter never blared out in the stewards room.   :D

Albons guys did what all other teams did with leaf blowers, supposedly cooling engine & brakes, the stewards couldn't see any difference in tarmac - it's all too blurred.  :tease:

Haas made the mistake of using the radio which is easy to record.  |-( 
If only they'd fired coloured flares into air to signal come into pits they'd have got away with it too. :fool: s
