      Indeed. Unfortunately it also means we missed out on a Carlando podium and appearance on the Verstappen Podcast.

        Typical Carlos way to get on the podium though. Would this be his 3rd time promoted to the podium well after the race due to penalties?

      Well if they had compramised the setup so this would have not been an issue, maybe they would not have been as fast as they were over the weekend

        Perhaps it’s why red bull wasn’t as insanely fast as expected. Only Norris/max/Charles/lewis got scrutineered for this as I understand it, and the first 2 complied.

        Typical, they blamed the bumps and the small amount of setup time

          This. Ferrari and merc were far closer to RB and McLaren this week and could be because both RB and McLaren compramised setup to raise the car a wee bit
