Norris out in Q1, Gasly disqualified

Fine for Williams

Williams must pay an amount of 5,000 euros for Albon’s unsichere Freigabe. We would like to have a better experience, but we will also have a higher grade. Look here for Urteil in Wortlaut:

“The car was taken out of the garage with the engine cooling fan still on. The car was stopped at the first opportunity, at the pit exit, and the driver then removed the fan and threw it overboard, where it was subsequently retrieved by a marshal. Albon drove away and came into the pits without setting an extra time.”

“The general expectation in an unsafe situation is to simply stop at the next safe location. Throwing parts overboard, requiring a marshal to retrieve them, is not normal. However, in this case, the actions of the team and driver prevented the qualifying runs of other drivers from being affected, as a yellow flag would have been shown if the car had remained where it was, or had been moved to a run-off area, and in this unique case, throwing the part overboard avoided the yellow flag. As discussed at the hearing, this appears to be the ‘least bad option’.”

“If any of these actions had affected other participants or created a further unsafe situation, the stewards would have taken further action. However, in this case we are imposing the usual penalty for a release in an unsafe situation of ?5,000.”

Gasly disqualified

Fangen will be a little with the Franzosen one. Who has a technical problem, is now a disqualification. If Rennen starts a second time, the start must begin. All Fahrer give instructions about the start of a position on.

Here is the complete description in Wortlaut:

“The Technical Delegate reported that car 10 exceeded the permitted fuel mass of 100kg/h during the final timed lap of Q2.”

“The team representatives explained that they had an unexpected technical failure of short duration which temporarily increased the fuel mass flow more than expected. The FIA ​​technical staff agreed that this was the cause.”

“The fact that the fuel mass flow at that time was greater than the limit was not disputed by the competitor.”

“The competitor demonstrated to the Stewards that the technical error resulted in a slower lap time and that no performance advantage was gained at that time. Therefore, they argue, this should be taken into account as a mitigation. They also noted that the very rarity of violations of this article demonstrates that this was not part of their strategy and that the magnitude of the transient simply exceeded the margin they allow to avoid a stranding.”

“The usual penalty for a breach of the technical requirements is disqualification and the stewards note that Article 1.3.3 of the International Sporting Code states: ‘Where a car does not comply with the applicable technical requirements, it is no defence to claim that no performance advantage has been gained.’ In addition to the Code, this has long been the position of the International Court of Appeal.”

“Therefore the stewards apply the usual penalty and disqualify the car and the driver from qualifying.”

The first parts are that

At least the first two could finally. Gasly was disqualified and Williams got a fine. More fun with us!

Hamilton: There is no function anymore

After all, even though the officials were extremely wary, we were able to cope with it, Lewis Hamilton was with his qualification to the following hat: “The Qualifying war was enttäuschend, we were still having a good Tag hatten, and I thought that I, with a könnten a place in the first two camps.”

“Leider hatte ich Probleme, die Reifen zum Arbeiten zu brücken, en genau darum geht es”, erklärt er en ergänzt: “Unser Ziel ist es, morgen nach vorne zu kommen, en ich bin zuversichtlich, dass wir das winst können.”

“It’s not even that this council had a different range strategy than the others, which helped us. If he was on the ranges, there could be a problem with the ranges behind him.”

“If it goes well, it could be a tribute tomorrow when he passes away,” Hamilton said.

No punishment for Russell?

Mercedes has failed to qualify its mandatory press release. It’s exciting, but if an Indian entrepreneur wants it, George Russell can’t stand a night’s punishment.

If all goes well, Russell will be from the P5 starting position tomorrow. And the teams were increasingly informed about the announcement of the drivers. Gleich can also come the official FIA document.

We are doing badly.

Deutsch langsamer als erwartet

Leclerc’s pole time was at the end at 1:41.365. It is an overrun, when the teams reached their goal, and that week would have made them seconds faster. It is betrayed Mario Isola from Pirelli.

Der Italiener erklärt: “Although it has happened, if the Strecke is still faster, you can drive even more cars.” Trotzdem sei man noch “weit davon entfernt”, was man eigentlich erwartet hatte.

So if a Zeit of 1:39.4 is displayed simultaneously, the Pole-Zeit des Vorjahres (1:40.203) cannot even erreich a man. That said, “there is no space for further development of the racing experience”, so Isola.

Zhou: War nur Wasserträger für Bottas

The Chinese war will last longer if the Zehntel passes its Team College. If you do something, it’s a minor mistake. “We know that I will be able to get the job done in the future, so that I can start from scratch,” he recalls.

“However, we want to optimize the team performance of the teams. I see wars, Valtteri has delivered a wind treasure, damn I saw a Q2 re-entry, was amazing in FP3,” said Zhou.

Or to put it another way: There is a chance that qualifying will happen for Bottas, but it will not happen. Didn’t matter that it was, when the Finn country was on 18. just a position ahead of ihm.

“Let’s make it easy without having to worry about it, so we can buy it in Q2,” says Bottas de Schultern. Sauber will be successful in Folge with both cars in Q1.
