Bahrain Grand Prix

Recommended Posts

What a race that that turned out to be. As a Hamilton fan I was getting despondent with his tyres going off and Verstappen catching him with time to spare. Then Verstappen overtook him but had to give the place back because he'd exceeded track limits to do so and Hamilton goes on to scrape a win. The thing is, Hamilton had exceeded track limits many times earlier in the race until Mercedes were warned not to do it. The difference being that when Hamilton did it he wasn't gaining a place. Surely this needs tidying up. Supposedly there's a different rule on track limits for qualifying and racing. But if it's allowed on race day why was Hamilton warned to stop doing it?

What say you?

Track limits are track limits otherwise why not just race in a straight line.

Ok to run wide to avoid an accident but not gain an advantage .

Kerbs were lowered to stop cars becoming airborne not to allow short cuts/higher corner speeds.

Exactly. It makes no sense to have one rule for quali and then change it for race day but it was what it was so why allow Hamilton to do it around 30 times during the race and then was told to stop doing it?
