If Alban receives a penalty the scores will be updated

Why wasn’t Bottas penalized for his false start?

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.

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
