How can the FIA tell individuals where they will and will not be during their own time? And what about in Brazil where there are some security concerns?phil1993 wrote:Curfew for team personnel

Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
i feel that no overtaking in pitlane a bit harsh, it removes the excitement of SC. ofc, if incident is somewhere near start-finish straight then its ok
Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
the main thing is, how much would they consider as sufficiently delayed, they are being quite ambiguous

Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
From the regulations:
This is bulls**. What if a driver opts to start hard tyres and use it for the most of race as a strategic gain? Why should he be penalized for not doing anything illegal but a strategical move? Essence of the rule is not fair. Theoretically, strategic players could and would be punished just because they are aggressive. It needs tweakening.If the race is suspended and cannot be re-started, thirty seconds will be added to the elapsed time of any driver who was unable to use both specifications of dry-weather tyre during the race.

Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
Yes, if a race is suspended early enough in the running for some cars not to have switched to the second set of tires, there is no reason for any penalties. The only reason a driver should be penalized for improper use of tire compounds is if he completed the entire race distance or 2 hour time limit without using both dry compounds in a dry race. If a race stops earlier than scheduled distance or duration, there should be no penalty.

Re: 2011 Formula 1 Season - Official Discussion Thread
I can understand the pit lane overtaking ban though - it's very dangerous. The TV cams don't give a proper sense of the speed through there.
