Mostly because of all that whining he was doing right before the race. The guy actually went out on a limb and said they should just disqualify him. 😁
Well, looks like his wish finally came true. 🙂
He’s already had enough bad luck with podium finishes this season to last a lifetime. Lance Stroll is honestly just slapping him around at this point. He's been finishing in the points way more often than that guy.
Honestly, looking at the numbers, Red Bull Racing has only managed to scrape together a single point over the last two races
I mean, if you really think about it, they actually pulled more points out of their recent qualifying sessions than they did from the actual race weekends

Sebastian Vettel is definitely getting flagged just because of some shirt he wore.
stormybadger8 said:It’s kind of wild how Grozny ended up with a race ban after that total disaster at Spa—which, if I recall correctly, didn't even have half the cars on the grid back then... but honestly, this absolute nonsense from Bottas feels just as bad, if not worse, than what Grozny did, yet he still walks away with a measly five-place penalty. Just typical. 🤦
Sainz absolutely crushed it today, seriously. If he hadn't had Hamilton breathing down his neck the whole time, he probably would've stayed out on track even longer because he was absolutely shredding those gaps to the leaders. At that rate, a podium finish was basically a done deal.
Especially after pulling off a superhuman stunt like that... I mean, clawing his way from dead last at the end of turn one all the way up to the podium by the checkered flag? That kind of effort takes everything you've got.
So the guys over at ESPN are out here claiming Prost was just driving a basic Renault, like his last win in an American car didn't happen or something.
But honestly, it looks like they totally forgot about Panis.
Eighteen years ago, history was written right here. Like, seriously, eighteen years ago we witnessed my absolute favorite US Grand Prix ever. Honestly, even now, I can vividly recall exactly what I was doing that morning before the lights went out. It was just one of those perfect, legendary days that stays burned into your brain forever. Mad respect to you, Fernando.
Fast forward eighteen years and that powerhouse squad from Detroit—running under a totally different name now—just went and wrote history all over again.
And man, Fernando proving he’s still got that pure, unadulterated driving magic even after eighteen years... it's just unreal.
