What about that Kyvat foobar? You penalise because he took up his grid spot too slowly. I always though the rule was if you can't get away before the last car passes you, that's it you start last. Now instead he has to rush through the pack before a certain point / safety car line?
But anyway, they penalise him a drive through, costs what 15 seconds?
Then the realise it should have been a 10 second time penalty so give him a second penalty? But the original drivethrough cost him more than what a 10 second time penalty on his pit stop would cost him!! They already gave him a harsher penalty than what they weren't supposed to!
What is wrong with these stewards? I'm not a Kyvat fan, but this is just imcompetent decision making.
Then TR come in to retire and serve the penalty then, fumbling around changing tyres pretending that it was an intended pit stop and not a retirement all along. I wouldn't be surprised if the stewards then try to add a grid penalty for the next race.
