An unnecessary Safety Car and needless confusion over Alonso's penalty proved the FIA needed to show 'consistency' in Jeddah, according to David Coulthard. F1
‘Lance couldn’t get any further off the track if he’d tried’
It opened the door for those who hadn’t yet pitted, such as Max Verstappen, to grab a free stop with the Dutchman leapfrogging the Ferraris, as too did Lewis Hamilton.“Let’s be realistic as to where the real penalty should be,” he continued. “Safety Car. Lance couldn’t get any further off the track if he’d tried and they said they needed camera angles to tell us. I’m sorry, but they’ve got more camera angles than we’ve got cameras.
However, on the penultimate lap Mercedes informed Russell that Alonso could have another penalty for the team working on his car, that subsequently confirmed by the stewards only to later be rescinded. “They haven’t gained an advantage, I would say, and what it has done is stolen and affected the podium, that the podium we’ve seen is not the podium that should have been if we had that information a minute or so before.
