It's amazing that with Bernie gone that FOM can actually stretch out now. Clearly they ahve some of the best media people working there and it's hilarious how restricted Bernie made everything. Thanks, Bernie, for making the sport into what it is but also gently caress you, lol.

Didn't Sainz tap Big John before the final shoving, or was that just nearly contact? Could have been a whole lot worse, I think it's fortunate that he impacted quite cleanly into Massa.

So, uh, Kvyat is in full meltdown mode.quote:Toro Rosso driver Daniil Kvyat described Formula 1 stewarding as a "stupid f****** circus" and strongly criticised race director Charlie Whiting after a double Canadian Grand Prix penalty. https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/f1-kvyat-stewarding-stupid-circuit-917596/

If you get hit with the wrong penalty and serve it then there's no way that you should also be given the "right" penalty. He won't be around next year anyway.

Yeh that's pretty harsh from the stewards, I'm with Kvyat on that point. I guess they felt that the drive through wasn't enough of disadvantage once it had all been said and done, and someone who wasn't paying too much attention was like: "Hey how come Kvyat is so far ahead? Hasn't he done his stop-go-penalty yet? It's been like 12 laps!" And then everyone else in the stewards room just look at each other awkwardly while one of them is thinking "I done goofed" Pretty sad tale for old Daniil over the last couple of years...

And it was a penalty for doing a thing that didn't disadvantage anybody - he took up his grid slot where he qualified and AFAIK the start wasn't delayed because of it. This is the Bernie-era pedantry that people are a bit sick of.

They could have just added the 10 seconds at the end of the race, which would have corrected the penalty without loving Kyvat over. This is my cover letter to apply to be a race steward.

Any MotoGP race not won by a Spainard is good. Also Ott Tanak won WRC, and Ott Tanak owns, unlike noted fraud Seb Ogier.
