when i used to watch indycar - they had stop and go penalties. it almost seems like in this case - a stop and go penalty against Max would have been a better solution. get him out of the way of lando right away, only lose ~10-12 seconds instead of 20. more "fair" to both of them

EDIT wiki says there hasn't been a stop and go penalty in F1 since 2020. maybe it's time to bring it back

Or make him return the position as Lando's race was affected to the point where maybe he could have won (doubt it though - Sainz was hooked up all weekend).

It's too bad this track was changed so much to make it suitable for F1 - when Indycar went there the old esses were still in place and it was such a challenge to get through there clean. Now there's no character to the track.
