Can't trust Red Bull to do what's right. Verstappen is the Chosen One.

 

Yeah fuck that noise. Hang on Checo!

 

It’s almost as if Aston told him to park it on the track so Alonso could serve his penalty under a safety car.

 

And the rest of you stragglers don’t mess this up for him with a SC!

 

Stroll, parks car basically off the track, behind the wall, no marshalls needed to go onto the track, just pull the car forward 3 feet.

FIA- SAFETY CAR!!!!!!

 

I might have to jump on a plane and kill someone… stand by…

 

Checo! Checo! Checo!

Would love to be in Mercedes debrief.

And McLaren, too.

 

I saw the rear jack touching Alonso's car and I said to my wife 'huh, he's touching the car while everyone else is waiting 5 sec'....

Wonder whats going to happen.

 

Couldn’t be happier for Checo. I might still have to jump on a plane and kill someone.

Oh and Max’s dad looked super pissed. Lol.

 

Third place goes to Russell.

 

Hahhhhaaa… I don’t know what is more ridiculous, the penalty itself, or not being able to get your shit together on a timely basis so George could enjoy his podium. Morons.

 

Wait, he cheated twice in one race?

 

Beyond amateurish.

 

Is the FIA drunk?

 

F1 app still shows Alonso in third? He’s was 5.1 seconds ahead in the finish so he would have covered a 5 second penalty.

 

They’re just making it up as they go along. Whatevs. Alonso back on the podium. Yay!

 

Nah they gave him an additional 10 second penalty because they didn’t serve the full 5 second penalty because the rear jack was touching the car at 4.5 seconds or whatever, then rescinded it when Aston Martin bitched it shouldn’t make a difference between front and rear jacks. Or something like like that. WTF. Lol.

 

F1.com says Alonso keeps his podium

They’re stoned, they can afford the good stuff.
