I don't think WEC drivers intend to cause incidents or leave track limits either, it's a result of driving hard and if you go over those limits, then you get a penalty. This isn't about intent, this is about the pathetic slap on the wrist for bad driving.

You have to include intent in the decision making. If someone drives hard and accidentally wobbles and hits a competitor causing them to go off track and retire that needs to be penalised differently to driving hard and t-boning a competitor. Wouldn't you agree?

I'm not debating that if it was on purpose it should be more severe, this is about how pathetic F1 penalties are. Don't straw man my argument.

In this incident we had Stroll fully off the track on the outside after braking too late. He then decided to not break while off-track, re-entered the track unsafely, and careered into Gasly on unsafe re-entry. All of that resulted in a meager 5 second penalty.

Don't straw man my argument.

Steady on lad. We were having a friendly discussion ๐Ÿ˜„. Nobody's trying to straw man you. Don't worry about it.
