2012 Formula 1 Official Monza GP Banter Thread
#21
I know the cars are in Parc Ferme, I never said anything about changing anything to the car.
I think Ferrari should have
a) brought the car in after lap 1 to check if the car is safe, and either go back out to put in a timed lap or just accepted P10 on the grid
or
b) if the car felt safe enough to do 2 more laps on his first Q3 run, why couldn't he go for his timed lap at that time rather than coming back in & wasting tires on a second run?
Either way, with the car's damage taken into consideration...he just ran too many laps that could have been better managed. Maybe Monza isn't a tire-hungry track like some places, but I would just expect better from the best minds in the business.
