seems quite far away to be fair 0.5s is quite short at their speed but not far away in length :D | 22:12:53 |
| MTRNord (they/them) | it looked weird either way what alonso did there | 22:13:05 |

| MTRNord (they/them) | probably was kinda like a jumpscare for russel as you never break in that area usually | 22:13:43 |
| MTRNord (they/them) | so he might have expected that there was a reason for it? | 22:13:52 |

| MTRNord (they/them) | or just missed his breakingpoint therefor | 22:14:57 |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrYE391RVjo Hmm is it considered as brake-test ?
Better with telemetry and compare with other Alonso laps | 22:16:38 |

| Gnuxie 💜🐝 | basically he cut his speed a lot more aggresively, and over 100m earlier than his normal break point, so it's really indefensible | 22:24:30 |
| Gnuxie 💜🐝 | that's not to say he didn't make a mistake | 22:25:18 |
| Gnuxie 💜🐝 | but he predetermined that he was going to risk it so yeah, he's out of luck | 22:26:29 |
| MTRNord (they/them) | In reply to @gnu_ponut:matrix.org
that's not to say he didn't make a mistake with his experience its questionable that he would make such a mistake without prior issues to the car imho | 22:28:11 |
| MTRNord (they/them) | he is not lets say bearman or tsunoda | 22:28:27 |
| sm | ha bearman wouldn't have been caught by russell | 22:29:08 |

| MTRNord (they/them) | oh fun just learned russel also repeatedly asked for a red flag since he is in the middle of the track. I wonder if that VSC decision will have any consequences (yeah its the last lap but still I guess its kinda fair that this still probably is more of a red than VSC. If he was off to the side I guess VSC yeah but uhhh I can see why russel didnt like that) | 23:09:08 |
| sm | for sure | 23:13:10 |
| sm | scary moment | 23:13:15 |

 Reticulated | Well then if any other team gets too competitive and I'm RB I'll just have perez wreck out last lap if leclerc is coming for my verstappen | 13:47:09 |
| Gnuxie 💜🐝 | we've been there done that, no one would do it because all the sponsors would move away not just from your time, but everyone else's team would find it harder now that the sport is in disrepute | 13:53:23 |
| Gnuxie 💜🐝 | and organising something secret like that today is a lot harder than 15 years ago | 13:53:54 |
| Reticulated | yeah didn't Proust do that and get penalized? | 13:55:00 |

| Reticulated | maybe with AI we can clone Murray Walker and have him commentate again | 13:56:07 |
| MTRNord (they/them) | in the end there just needs to flow a certain amount of money to the stewards... Oh wait we dont say that out loud 👀 | 14:24:17 |
