Kimi: Perez Punch Punishment

Welshy, even with dodgy tyres there would have been not overtaking

Even with dodgy tyres, the track is not designed to allow overtaking. The track is too stop-start to allow the slower cars to be overtaken. The only area on the track I can see that can make overtaking a possibility is to make a straight straight after the tunnel.

Like I said many incidents of this happening through F1 just normally grass or gravel for the car to run off to instead of the wall, the crash has made it look worse

If there is a circuit where a driver is left with the choice of letting a car through or pushing it into the barrier, then the circuit is not fit for F1 racing in my opinion.

letting a car through or pushing it into a barrier? Raikkonen was already turning into the corner - now if Perez wants to make a late move - perhaps he should engage brain and realise that not even having his front tyres alongside Raikkonen's rear tyres is not a good enough reason for Raikkonen to give way - tbf if Grosjean has a 10 place penalty at the next race then so should Perez or do we just defend any driver who tries to be 'aggressive' as it is good for the sport?

I sounded bitchy then



Tired - long day at work

Raikkonen was already turning into the corner
=====================

that was never a racing line. he turned way before the corner, for the sole purpose of pushing the McLaren into the barrier.

Yep cos Kimi has a reputation for that and wanted to wreck his own race

im not blaming kimi, im blaming the track. it looked clear to me though that he turned before the corner.

okay so it does look like kimi initially takes a slightly wider line before he turns, but he is turning into the chicane before Perez makes his attempted pass.

Again I do like Perez but that was never gonna happen.

Nay mind Canada next
