Did the penalty deferral ever get sorted out?

It’s in the other post, it’s been dropped.

[Skub]

That's how it's done. Pick up a grid penalty,then don't play for a few rounds to make it go away.

No. Insist the rules are followed.

I bet the wording of the rule is changed soon.

Are we going to have a sweepstake on which lap he is going to crash and who he is going to take out with him?

[Yorick]

Oops

I'm not sure how far it is from here, but we've got a week of winter trying to make a come back up here! Hope the weather turns good for the GP!

MM binned it big, twice

Can't say he's not pushing

Aah. Ok. That's a bit scary! I do get that he needs to push on, but knowing a smidge about shoulders, every time I see him crash I wince, just in case!

(I am certain-sure he's got all the airbag protection and any other protection they can give him, but I still wince!!)

Since 2018 it’s been a requirement

It's always been a requirement for MM to crash...

I didn't know it was a requirement, but I kinda meant specifically on the shoulder area - from what I've seen, generic airbag systems don't give much extra to the top of the humerus bit. But I'm sure he's been set up with the best kit

It does seem that way

[Yorick]

Some fast times in Q1 but feel sorry for Fab Frog.

Impressive by Fernandez.
