Title: Grid Penalities on the Way Out!
Post by: Calman on May 09, 2018, 07:04:45 PM
Like so many other stories rising to the surface lately, this will come as no surprise, but it's something we will all be glad to see implemented.   Apart from serious incidents, this will be a breath of fresh air, particularly as we are all tired of seeing drivers penalised for issues which should point more to a team's failure or incidents which simply don't warrant a grid penalty.

I would prefer to see fines handed out for other reasons, rather than spoil the line up on the grid.

All the best,
Cal :)

Except for a few infractions that directly effect the grid order (Schumi parking at Rascasse in Q3 for example), fines would be a much better option.

The irony would be if they fine teams who go over their engine or gearbox limit which was implemented to save money (shaking head emoji).   :fool: :fool:
