@russellius I guess this answers the fans questions about why the Mercedes wasn't also protesting the results or raising right to review appeals with the FIA. George seems to have accepted that the race is done and can't be changed

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@abhagsain @aayushman2703 So if he had done all of it, but not out of spite, you would be fine with it?

Your problem isn't with his actions, just his words. That's a silly way to live

@russ99a @MercedesAMGF1 The decision of letting the rookie have the free practice session is made with the main driver's involvement.

@CMKsince1980 @Fatof_ @officialtaras @cytrusf1 Did the team tell Russell to pit? No.

The team weren't prepared to handle his pit stop

Two things are true. The team never expected Russell to pit. Russell saw the tyres and expected the team to be ready to service his car

I am not fanatical about supporting one over the other

@ItsaboutGR1 He spent money to buy the driver of the day vote for Kimi in the Chinese Grand prix last year? That's not likely

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@CMKsince1980 @Fatof_ @officialtaras @cytrusf1 Andrew Shovlin just explained in the Mercedes debrief video that it is a normal practice to keep the tyres out for both the drivers when the safety car is going through the pit lane.

Team always told George to stay out and weren't ready for him. George saw the tyres and went in

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@CMKsince1980 @officialtaras @cytrusf1 Yes. And I said, just following the safety car into the pit lane wouldn't be a penalty.

Did you read my comment wrong?

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@russellius Hey, can you list what you have posted for him to repeat?

I feel his explanations were complete in regards to all the issues the team had in Monaco

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@russellius I think the main reason for this perceived bias against George that Toto has is that he's had better drivers in Lewis and Nico, and has a rising star in Kimi and always had his sights on the best of them all in Max.

Just my opinion.

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@CMKsince1980 @Fatof_ @officialtaras @cytrusf1 The instruction was not to come into the pit box. Not about the pit lane itself. That isn't something that the team can instruct him to do or not do. Safety car was going through the pit lane, which meant every driver must follow it

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@CMKsince1980 @officialtaras @cytrusf1 No, just following the safety car wouldn't be a penalty.

@effonecasualfan @feayaanshudhull Didn't think you would be this stupid or just baiting us for engagement.

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@Hogiforever Same was said about how Ducati didn't need Marc and Pecco was their future and their best bet.

Teams will absolutely jump at the chance of getting the best

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@ducatiforza Everyone explains how Silverstone 2025 was different as there was oil on the track, and you keep droning on about using that race as your counterpoint.

Your brain okay?

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@dxbestani When it comes to fresh softs vs old hards, Leclerc at Monaco is completely different from Lewis at Abu Dhabi.

If you get out of that hangover, you will realise that an overtake was unlikely

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@FDataAnalysis @liegl_florian How does it get optimised if development is fixed for the entire power unit?

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@Antsamp701 @effonecasualfan Right. Why didn't FIA account for this?

Consider the complete power unit performance (ICE + ERS) in handing out ADUO allowances, or give the upgrade allowances only for the ICE.

[MM93 Fan 1 @RootJoseph12303]

@FDataAnalysis @ScuderiaFerrari @Charles_Leclerc @LewisHamilton @redbullracing One thing bothering me about the ADUO concept.

You provide allowances based on the ICE performance, and the allowances can be used to upgrade the entire power unit, not just the ICE.

Why not just measure the performance from the power unit in measurements for ADUO?
