Re: The Caterham Thread
I needed to use large text because it's such a tragedy that Lotterer won't be racing. And I don't even like comic sans. But yet, you've missed the point. We're all a bit annoyed that Lotterer has made the (admittedly, better) choice to not race for Caterham, but that doesn't warrant the size a bill...

I think it's lucky he went in backwards, as the pictures appear to show. If it'd been a direct front-on impact, he'd have gone under.

Whatever the aftermath of all this is, I suspect a lot will be made of the conditions being too poor for the helicopter to fly.

This is true. It's also interesting that Alonso has otherwise been pretty laid-back throughout his career too, except in 2007.

I don't imagine the stewards went down to fix the barriers themselves, or had anything to do with the fixing process. I would also imagine that the barriers took as long to fix as was required to fix them.

Re: 2014 Canadian GP RoTR
One thing about the bad TV direction is that this has been a problem for the last 15+ years. Back in the ITV days in the late 90s, Martin Brundle was upbraiding the race direction for cutting to shots of people in the paddock, rather than focusing on the race. Noticeably, he doesn't do that any mor...

It doesn't matter. It's not a punishable offense to cause yellow flags, therefore there's no reason he should be penalised for that.
