The stewards ruled Oscar Piastri was "wholly responsible" for the collision which ended Charles Leclerc's race - but Leclerc also blamed Andrea Kimi Antonelli.
The problem is that this ruleset inhibits wheel to wheel action. Either divebomb or don’t overtake on the inside. I don’t want racing where the only overtakes happen on the straights with DRS.
In my opinion Piastris move was valid and should be allowed. Kimi should give him space, there is plenty as shown in the picture.
It’s the stewards discretion to decide when to apply which rules. They are normally more lenient after a (re-)start. Protesting is pointless as they acted within the ruleset. I just think it’s stupid.
You say it yourself. Either do it like Verstappen, or dont do it at all. With the current rule set that is the logical outcome.
Stella didnt even protest against the penalty.
