  • Hold on... if you're trying to overtake round the outside and the car in front is on the racing line, it's your responsibility to back out of it or be run wide, shirley?

    If the overtaking car is in front or even alongside then fair enough, but in this case (assume we're talking about Perez on Norris?) Perez was still a good metre or so behind as they reached the apex.

    He can't seriously have expected Lando to lift or hold a tighter line to let him through?

    Not in my book. If there's a car alongside you, you give them space to stay on the circuit. It's not a question of letting them past - it's a matter of not driving them off the circuit. If you want good racing then it requires mutual respect. Not a 'yield or crash' mentality.

    Strongly disagree. He was alongside Norris. Norris should have given him space to stay on the circuit. I like Norris and admire him as a driver, but in my view that move crossed the line, both literally and metaphorically.
