Not sure if trolling or 15yo ghetto kid. I'm just going to ignore your posts from here on in, despite your love for Rosberg the Legend.

Yes I see either the ED or Mr w00ds are up to shenanigans. Rosberg is a legend (in his own lunchbox)

Yep sure, please ignore my posts as heavens forbid someone here has his own opinion that goes against the majority here... :rolleyes:

I have no admin powers, I can only edit my own opinions of Rosberg the legend.

It is obvious to me that your opinions are based purely on the drivers involved in particular incidents and not what is objectively right/fair or a positive thing for the sport regardless of who is behind the wheel.

If that was Hamilton on Rosberg, would you then agree a 10second penalty is fair?

Didn't think so.

I think you'll find my thoughts on passes that push drivers over the track limits has & will continue to be the same as per the rules that govern the sport.
So if it was the other way, I'd expect Hammy to get a penalty. As for 5 or 10 sec's my original comment comes from the fact that in Austria, Rosberg was handed a 10 sec penalty for not leaving sufficient room (sorry for "causing a collision") so why was yesterday any different other than Max didn't turn in so avoided contact. I too am as frustrated as others for the lack of consistency in the interpretation of rules & penalties.

You say your views mirror the FIA's rules but then bag them for being inconsistent.

I actually said...
"lack of consistency in the interpretation of rules & penalties."
the rules exist but they are being interpreted differently & inconsistently a lot of the time.

I think Horner has explained Rosberg's penalty best...

It was deliberate, I dont doubt that for a second. I still dont see how the way max defended against Kimi is ok yet Rosbergs trick is not. Maybe fair enough if it was effective, but he cant even pull it off... and without any contact or it resulting in the other driver being seriously if at all effected, I dont get why he is penalised.

To me, it discourages overtaking as it appears the odds are in the defenders favour more than it has ever been.

Yeah, it was the first time I've seen Rosberg be an aggressive overtaker since... well, maybe his stint at Williams?
Verstappen needs to stop his jinking last minute, it's going to end badly for him in the long run.

Shame really, I was really hoping Rosberg would keep his head and drive this thing to the championship... but in his attempts to prolong his lead, he's actually made it easier for Lewis (penalties, accidents, and poor starts).

I think a better way to look at it is, what would've happened if there wasn't the tarmac there? The racing is between the 2 white lines, and Rosberg didn't not leave any room for verstappen at all. To me it's the same incident as the Hamilton one

I'm waiting for the almighty shine to wear off Verstappen. I quite like him as a driver but for fuck sake he's aggressive as fuck and I'm really starting to think he's experience and coaching have somewhat taught him how to force others into an error, which he then uses to complain and while the shine is around he won't get in trouble.
