Checo on pole with Alonso next to him, Verstappen 15th, Leclerc 12th? Looking forward to some mayhem!

Well, I'm happy for the winners but, the race was quite boring for me. I cleaned the cat box and came back to see nothing happened or changed.
What was the supposed 2nd penalty for Alonso?
EDITED: Now I know that they think Alonso didn't properly serve his first penalty. These penalties in F1 are just ridiculous. Not just now but has been for several years.

Looks like back jack was touching lift point before 5 sec penalty ended
Essentially same as Ocon last week, then. 10 second plus the 5 second penalty if they are consistent. Puts him out of third I believe.
I thought the race was good overall…advantage of having F1TV…I can watch all the good battles as they happen.
Maybe Alonso will get the pole in Monaco and somebody besides Red Bull will get a win.

You know what's funny?
Ferrari has gotten worse since last year. Red Bull better. Don’t see how anyone will be able to match the pace of Red Bull unless we see some miracle upgrades. It’s embarrassing for the rest of the field.

Get used to it.

That’s what happened.
Yeah. First, this particular rule is stupid. Second, if it’s taking that long to decide if it’s a penalty or not, the rule should be changed.

Apparently they are going to now after this successful challenge by Aston Martin
Did the rescinded penalty start with a protest from another team or the stewards?
Looking at you Toto…

Good grief. Who writes these rules?? Who approves these rules? Ugh.
Just have all penalties served at the end of the race. No more issue. Of course then you’ll get teams causing cautions at the very end of the race to ensure one of their drivers is/isn’t within the penalty time of other cars.

It will be a little wait for the next chapter since the Chinese Gran Prix at Shanghai is cancelled.

I'm glad I watched the replay at 9:30 this morning and didn't bother to stay up.
Still happy for Alonso.

I stayed up. I felt it was very entertaining. All of it. The battles going on throughout the entire field were fun to watch.
We nodded off a few times during the live broadcast and so tuned in to the replay. They cut the Gasly-Ocon collision and the entire third red flag from the replay, and didn’t even mention it.
