    But you had to admire the worlds worst pitstop

    1. Loose wheel which meant the car had to be pushed back to be redone
    2. After loosing time at the stop Riccardo pushes the car over the car and destroys his wing which then divides his tire in two, Ricardo returns to the pits for a new wing and tires.
    3. Drive through penalty for an unsafe release to add insult to injury.

    You forgot the 10 grid penalty he gets as well at the next race.

    I feel that they are taking it to far, the stop/go penalty was enough, they could/should fine the team rather than dropping the driver 10 grid slots. It is the start of a horrifically silly season if you ask me.

    Wow that's pathetic, the driver dropped from a 4th place finish to last which is enough IMO. Plus it's not like he failed to tighten the wheel lock it was the guy in the pit crew. Like you said give the team a fine not the driver.

    The new rules are becoming silly and it is driving me insane. The sounds of the F1 is depressing, the look of the cars are silly, the fact that they have to go hybrid is still the worst thing ever, since F1 always was about pushing the boundaries and it feels like they have all been shackled.

    The other thing I loved was the way Kimi drove yesterday - it felt like he was doing badly on purpose to tell the guys at Ferrari that their car sucks :P

    I don't mind the hybrid system, I'm hoping to see this tech get advanced at F1 level and from there have it engineered and adapted to road cars. To me F1 was the birthing ground of new tech which was later implemented onto the cars we drive today.

    The rules are gonna suck for a while but i'm also excited to see what teams do and how that tech will be brought into the cars we drive today. Imagine a kers system in your mercedes car where you can have a smaller engine that saves you fuel but still have the power to pull away at the lights thanks to you car harvesting energy earlier.
