@bernasaurus he was completely aware but admitted that he forgot about it. Hence the 6 penalty points

@rocketpanda I’d be inclined to disagree – you mention the Russell-style heroics – well Schumacher is in the same position that Russell was in last year – the worst car on the grid alongside a rookie. I see no […]

I think this shows the problem with the 5 second penalty rule.
Given the choice between breaking the rules and taking a penalty or obeying the rules, a driver should always choose to obey the rules without a […]

@tifoso1989 @keithcollantine ah, I got the wrong Mika!! Thanks for the correction, didn’t realise he retracted the claim though.

@jimmi-cynic I have no source and I’ve forgotten who it was (something tells me it was Hakkinen, but no idea why he would know) but someone in the know did tweet that the penalty was a reduction in fuel flow for […]
minnis commented on the post, Schumacher: F1 tyres let you "push hard", unlike F2 3 weeks, 6 days ago
@jerejj number of laps is hugely relevant. If a safety car is called, it cannot disappear halfway through a lap. If it’s not ready to be called in, it will stay out for a full extra lap. If there aren’t many laps […]

Unfortunately I wouldn’t be surprised if Schumacher gets comprehensively beaten by Mazepin this year.
Not due to lack of talent – he has that in spades. But because if Mazepin can pay enough money to not only […]minnis commented on the post, First pictures: Mercedes reveals its new F1 car for 2021 1 month, 2 weeks ago

@Jerejj fine, if you’re determined to continue to argue with me, I will say that it’s STILL exactly like that, only the finish also happens to be the start point. It can still be seen as a form of […]
minnis commented on the post, McLaren confident sprint races will not "artificially change the pecking order" 1 month, 3 weeks ago
@jerejj my point was specifically that it is always against the clock, with the fastest time winning. No racing, no fighting for position, purely the fastest time wins. And no, it is not always point A to point B […]
minnis commented on the post, McLaren confident sprint races will not "artificially change the pecking order" 1 month, 3 weeks ago
I think the only sprint race format that will work would be like the WRC – have a one lap sprint race, but make it so that rather than all being on the track at the same time they can go separately and we record […]

I think the 15 point penalty was perfect.

@theessence she tried to push his hand away and cover herself up – that to me looks VERY much like she was bothered. Again, she may not have been, but that is what it appears.
And as I have said (and I shall […]minnis commented on the post, FIA joins Haas in criticising Mazepin's "inappropriate" behaviour in social media video 4 months, 1 week ago
@theessence yes, now that she’s come out and said she consented, we can assume that she’s happy. That’s not my issue, nor the majority of people’s issue.
Look at the pure facts of the video. To quote the […]
