I thought a lot of those penalties were utter rubbish! Including Vestappen's 1-place for Qualy. Stewards were shockingThat penalty for Lando was bang out of order. The new race director needs pulling in for not clearing that debris immediately. That aside , good race

Are the penalties at the discretion of the race director, or are they actually listed somewhere?That penalty for Lando was bang out of order.

The Penalties are handed out by the Stewards taken out of a Rule Book, each 'foul' so to speak has a designated penalty. Agreed, a VSC could've cured the issue a few laps earlier.
No, wouldnt ever do that its dangerous, plus I can't work on my laptop, drive and use the phone.No excuse, Have you not heard of playing with your phone whilst driving? It's a thing you know, well it certainly is in every bloody vehicle when I'm sat looking down at them from my cab.
They are indeed. I probably didn't explain myself correctly. I think for such a small error a 10 second start stop penalty is ridiculous. A 5 second penalty added on at that end would have been spot on.
That would be the 90s and before then, ahh I remember those well.
Especially as he lost places whilst correcting it, a degree of common sense is required.
