@mercsogyny Regazzoni finished p3 in his debut year despite missing 5 races and was only 12 points from winning the title.
2 podiums in them 5 races and he wins it.
@Potatomehn@bedheadman@PilisPatryk It was wet. He didn't have to pit.
The stewards are pussies, its that simple. They should have allowed it and then added a new rule to not allow it.
@PremierSimGL@jarno_opmeer@FRA_ELITE45 Let me rephrase this:
"We didn't think of it and it wasn't the outcome we wanted, therefore we give out a penalty."
Also, controversy gives views, whoever actually decided this is a fucking idiot and shouldn't be in charge of stewarding.
@autosport 4 were from penalties. (23 poles)
4 were from strategic errors from his team while leading (9 wins)
3 were from engine issues from the lead. (12 wins)
And thats before we get into races that he put a shit box on pole and had no chance of winning.
12/23 is pretty standard.
@fiadocsbot See @johnnyherbertf1, penalising a driver when there's no contact makes no sense. We all know you would have given one for "potentially dangerous driving".
@F1BigData 4 poles due to penalties.
4 poles due to others bottling it. (including today)
2 mechanical failures from the (net) lead.
4 poles because he's insane over one lap.
Leaves Monaco 22 (strategic error on Ferrari), France 22 (his mistake) and Monaco 24, which he won.
@M28Motorsport@WORleague@GaborCsontos_@d_zorzo@Leo_Lund3 Not his job to let someone else back on track. He left the space, the other guy decided to turn into him and go back into the wall because of it. He's lucky he's not penalised for it. Awful driving.
