I’m no expert but merc had the first pit box. If LH came in and everyone else followed he would have to wait for all to leave pits before he could be released

Same as me. I have many vices but I don’t know the first thing about placing a bet with a bookie.
long may it stay that way. I have many other ways of wasting money

Not necessarily, as long as he is released safely I think he could go when ready and to the pit Lane exit, but not sure how they would decide when to turn the pit exit light to green as that is normally after the last car on the grid has gone past.
Yeah that sounds feasible. Especially with ocon second.
I guess Redbull had Max down the field.
That would be an interesting shot from above.
I guess it also made it worse because they were all line astern on an outlap.
It would not have helped Lewis backing up and bolting into pits late
I think @Bullet2012 means once in his pitbox the whole field was nose to tail with no gap for the team to get Hamilton out into the pitlane.
But I guess they would turn the lights green in pitlane at the same time as redlights in on track went green.

Year off? Working at the factory rather than travelling the world, suppose it would be nice and exciting initially but not great for anyone with family.

They do it on rotation. It’s fun for the first year but then it gets monotonous

Not sure I'd like to follow that circus every year.

It’s good fun for a few years. It took me 26 years to stop the traveling round the world for work

A little off topic.
where I was working today, nowhere near an F1 team, a couple of Aston Martin F1 guys were there relaxing and enjoying a day out.
next thing the guys spoke to some parents and the youngsters running around all suddenly appeared wearing Aston Martin F1 baseball caps.
Good show AM F1, those youngsters will remember that for a long while.
big thumbs up from me. even though I did not get a cap.

It’s not entirely clear to me in that article but it seems the rule says (paraphrased) “it matters not what the reason is - if you can’t pull a litre you’re disqualified”. So it would seem no matter what they come up with they’re toast. Unless the “leak” was after they extracted the fuel and they spilt it ??
That's the way I read it as well. Shame but if he had a puncture he would have lost second place and that would also be a shame. But they need to work out what the rule is intended to do and if it fulfilled that purpose.
Not followed F1 for a few years now but why should anyone care how much, or little fuel there is left in the car? Seem to remember one or two drivers running out on the last lap or on the "insurance lap" after the finish in years gone by. Set a min weight, to be checked after the race by all means but the fuel one seems pointless.
