It was confirmed on RDS, the French Canadian network that Harlow was told when to wave the flag. Honestly, she is blameless in this.
Olivier42 commented on the post, Mercedes demand tough stance from FIA on Red Bull 7 years, 7 months ago
Mercedes’ comparison to 2005 BAR is so disingenuous that they should get a race ban themselves.
(no, I’m not serious)

There is one party we have hardly heard anything from regarding this… it’s RBR.
Maybe they are keeping their cards close to their chest until the appeal, or maybe they do not have any cards.

There was a *sarcasm* mention here but the comment system trimmed it off.

We know Vettel’s good results are all due to his fantastic car.
I think it’s obvious that Alonso is nothing special, and it’s just his car allowing him to have great starts.

Great news. They’ve been handing penalties like candy so far, how about one more?
Olivier42 commented on the post, Mercedes are ahead but for how long? 8 years, 5 months ago
Fernando Alonso starts from tenth on the grid and will need one of his trademark brilliant to begin the process of getting on terms with title rival Vettel.
You accidentally a word here ;)

Just a small correction Red Bull was 0.37% faster than Ferrari – not 37%

@catracho504 why are you derailing this thread about Button and Hamilton with incorrect information and conspiracy theories about Vettel and Red Bull?
Olivier42 commented on the post, Vettel sent to back of grid for qualifying infringement 9 years ago
Huge mistake by Red Bull. Nice to see the stewards be consistent, but the ruling in both cases was stupidly harsh. Disqualify the last lap or Q3 entirely, but having the pilot start last is ridiculous.

Hamilton now has the most laps driven while carrying astroturf.

The carelessness he committed was not worthy of a world champion.
That’s wrong. Was it careless? Yes. Was it stupid? Yes. Does it make him any less worthy of a world champion? No way. Every world champion has […]

Olivier42 commented on the post, Vettel and Hamilton at odds over unlapping 9 years, 4 months ago
F1 fans sure love their artificially-inflated drama.
Hamilton comments are pretty rich considering all the drama he found himself at the center of in recent times.
Regardless, I never put too much stock in […]
Olivier42 commented on the post, Vettel demoted to fifth with 20-second penalty 9 years, 4 months ago
The 20 second penalty was fair.
Vettel and Red Bull took a bet – they ended up losing 5 points (3rd -> 5th). Not the end of the world. The problem is Alonso winning, not whether they finish 2nd or 3rd or 5th.

Olivier42 commented on the post, Should Red Bull lose points over 'illegal' floor? 9 years, 5 months ago
Here’s another attempt at an analogy.
Street X has a sign that says “Speed Limit: 60” on it. Everybody assumed it was 60kph, but RBR made a case for 60mph. Charlie Whiting and the stewards accepted that, and let […]
