Why should he have left a car’s width? Wasn’t even alongside :S
Again AFAIA, it's the rules.

Red Bull have lodged a complaint against Russell due to “Erratic braking” under the Safety Car - Which to be fair he did almost come to a complete stop.
And wonder boy was playing his 'let's get right alongside' games again, which was outlawed post-2021.

Beware “Loonie Lando” coming down a slip road near you!

See viewtopic.php?f=90&t=253891#p1668808.

He makes Mad Max look reasonable.
The helicopter coverage of the rest was quite interesting.

Agreed, I thought the front wheel/wing had to be next to the mirror?

Wasn't even close and Oscar held his nerve.

At least we saw Lando being more aggressive for a change. Too often he just jumps out the way, it's cost him a lot of points, especially vs Max. Okay in this instance it was vs his team mate and there really wasn't a gap but Lando's biggest flaw is he doesn't race hard enough.

Aaaaaand in ever more consistent officiating, Norris is given a 5 second penalty for causing a collision.

There’s racing hard vs racing stupidly. Wouldn’t have seen Piastri try that.

Lando dammed if he goes for it, dammed if he doesn't, he just can't win. I remember a 7 (8) time world champion making a similar move on JB..
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

JB was the one investigated for that incident-though not punished.

It’s not like it was an all or nothing place to gain…there were other opportunities and places, and laps left on the board. He chose the one that simply wasn’t on. He should’ve waited.

Everything is crystal clear in hindsight.
