Pity. Imola is an interesting track and usually has decent racing.

If your trying to suggest that Norris is getting preferential treatment compared to your hero, Max, you can stop. The stewards investigated after the race and gave Norris a 5-second penalty for causing a collision.

He is a little bit fortunate that he was classified in the race allowing the 5-second penalty to be served and totally irrelevant.

Naturally, he was classified as in the race. He caused the SC that ended it.

A complete nothing burger of a penalty. If Verstappen had pulled that reckless manoeuvre against Piastri , would you have been happy with a five second penalty - Be Honest

Verstappen received a complete nothing burger of a penalty the previous round when he DELIBERATELY DROVE INTO A COMPETITORS CAR.

No-one else on the grid comes close to the degree of petty aggression spiking into dangerous acts that Verstappen pulls almost as a matter of course.Everyone can see it. Trying to defend it OR suggest any other driver is guilty of the same thing is


a bit sad.

Congratulations for completely misrepresenting my poststo try to make a point.

At no point have I defended Verstappens crash into Norris, in the same fashion as Senna's crash into Prost in 1990 both were was stupid and unprofessional. However Norris's attempt on the overtake of Piasti was reckless and dangerous at such a high speed part of the circuit.

It merited points on Norris licence

Catch up Dogbert. We’re talking about Barcelona when Max petulantly drive into Russell.

I have never seen a driver penalised by the Stewards for causing a collision , and the stewards gave Norris a 5 second penalty , without the Stewards also awarding at least one, usually 2 penalty points - that hasn't happened , ever.

I remember going upriver in Borneo, Sarawak, to a long house where you could stay for free, just roll in and the tribe'd put you up. That's the communal building where everybody in the tribe lived. I'd pulled down a wicker basket hanging from the roof in the living room as it were, there were a fair few of them, to discover it was full of human skulls. You see grandad in the corner there to get married had to go and get a skull. Yep, actual headhunters. Now the chief of this tribe was barely 2nd generation non-headhunter, and he was one of the most impressive individuals I've ever met in my life. Focused, utterly professional in his demeanour and actions who radiated considered thought and charisma. Handled family disputes, managed the tribes finances and purchases (I met him again when he came down to Sibu for business), education (they got volunteer teachers to come over from Malaysia proper). Spoke a bunch of different languages including English and Mandarin. An extraordinarily intelligent and talented man capable of anything.

His potential was not wasted as it were, but I find it utterly fascinating this source of ability that can be found anywhere amongst anybody. And you have to realize in wars and despotism how much of this goes to waste.
