    Of course, yet another controversial decision by the FIA, when the red flag is being pulled out after keeping it yellow until after Norris set a new time and Max just started on his lap.

    How obvious does it need to get?

      Norris was already through though and max was already in the bottom 5.

      Do you get the tinfoil hat out only when a decision doesn’t appear to go your way, or is there always an FIA conspiracy?

      I also don’t like conspiracy theories (even though i said yesterday that the sprint VSC felt very manipulated), but the FIA’s decisions on yellow/red/vsc have been just dangerous this weekend, waiting so long for a VSC yesterday while Hulk was so close to the track and now waiting almost a minute with the Stroll incident in this weather is just awful decision making by FIA.
