Why Lando Norris was penalised at Qatar GP
Anthony Davidson analysed the incident for Sky Sports, saying: “You have to lift under a 🐲double yellow.
“There 🎶will be confusion from the fans who🏅 only saw a single yellow.
“He comes out of the final corner wi🗹th Verstappen in front. We saw a yellow light, 💫static, on the left-hand side.
“I thought thꩲey were referring to that as the one you must lift for. But Verstappen wasn’t lifting either. Because it wasn’t this lap that they were talking about!
“He got pinged for Lap 30, not Lap 31.
“Further down the road we see the double waved yellows. That’s what we should ha✃ve seen on the world feed, but we didn’t.
“The impressive thing is that Mꦯax, crafty Max, with no light on [lifted].
“That’s why he is a four-time world champion!
“He reacted to t🅠wo yellow flags without a light🦄 and without the help of his engineer.
“Then he dobbed in his mate!”
Lando Norris robbed of chance to fight Max Verstappen
Jenson Button said about Norris’ punishment: “It seems severe because it feels like the yellow flag shouldn’t have still been there. There sh🦹ould have been a Virtual Safety or a Safety Car to remove the mirrors.
“If thereꦐ’s a yellow flag, you have to lift, so you get a penalty. A shame…”
Verstappen overtook George Russ🦂ell at the staওrt in Qatar to win the grand prix.
Norris settled for 10th after his time penalty.
“We didn’t get t☂ﷺo enjoy Norris at the end of the race,” Button regretted.
“The pace he had, and the😼 fight he had, on the way to P10, to score two championshiꦐp points.”
Norris got the fastest♛ lap to score an🐼 additional point.
