Leclerc gained it all on Lewis on his own without even being informed about the penalty and then they screw him over in favour of Lewis, I cannot believe this team
During testing, I wrote about feeling optimism that the new regulations would be 'alright on the night' once we actually got into a competitive weekend.
But, seeing the realities of the new regulations, that optimism has vanished as quickly as the drivers use up their batteries.
There's no doubt these power units are exceptional pieces of engineering, and continue to showcase the usual brilliance of the manufacturers.
But it's difficult not to see the regulations now as anything but fundamentally flawed, and seeing cars unable to maintain their own momentum halfway down a not particularly long straight is not the direction #F1 should have travelled in.
It's an overly complicated mess, and I fear it's a massive misstep. This is nothing to do with competition, or the pecking order.
Seeing an F1 car essentially have its horsepower halved midway along a straight on a qualifying lap, before gently coasting into a corner like a pensioner heading out for mass, is not why any of us are here.
