Montoya exclusion. Why after 50+ laps????
My Montoya
The guy risks his a*se around a racetrack for 50+ something laps and then, ONLY THEN, do they decide it is wrong he is in the race. Were the stewards of the meeting in McDonalds for that time just putting on a bit more weight??? What would they be feeling - apart from not hungry anymore - if it was Montoya in the wall, and now hospital with back pains, hey? have I missed something?? |

The driver (Montoya) joined the race after the start in a spare car in circumstances where the driver had not left the grid within 15 seconds of the start," an FIA statement said.
Regulation says that: ''No change of car is permitted after the start of the race and, any driver wishing to change car, must have got out of his orignial car and left the grid before the 15 second signal which immediately precedes the start. A change of car will be deemed to have taken place once a driver is seated in his new car and such a change may only take place in the pit lane or the team's designated garage area. '' i don't know . it could have been an error of the stewards, or maybe someone passed a good word . about it . maybe another team . who knows Last edited by Dani Filth; 20 Jun 2004 at 20:50. |

Isn't this similar to what happened with Ayrton Senna in the 1988 Brazilian GP? He started from the pit lane, got up to 2nd place behind Prost, only to be black-flagged at about half distance.

I agree that it was rather stupid not to have black flagged him after a lap or two...

I believe Monty already had done his first pitstop after we got first notice that he was under investigation. Surely, there is no margain for breaking this rule so when it happens, it happens and the penalty must be given then and there.

It's just utter BS.
I thought they had to issue a penalty within 20 minutes of stating that the car was under investigation. And then it was well into the race before they decided to investigate. Thanks to the stewards for allowing JPM to risk a puncture with all the carbon fibre shards everywhere lap after lap only for it to be for nothing. |

Thank you Frued - I'll buy you a drink next time in the pub.
No -one else picked up on the point that it is out of order to risk a guy's backside for nothing. see my other posts about How long it took the doctors to get to Ralf. |

Well the FIA is very quick to impose fines and reprimand its drivers on petty errors. May be now JPM should ask them for some compensation.

I can find no reference in the FIA 2004 F1 Sporting Regulations to any 20 minute rule or any requirements to how long after an incident takes place when the FIA have to make a decision. Indeed it seems that it could theoretically happen after the race has finished!

"The reason for Juan Pablo’s black flag is that when we tried to start the engine on the grid, the starter would not engage into the back of the car and we decided therefore that Juan Pablo should get into the T-car. However, according to the FIA’s article No.85 Juan Pablo would need to have left the grid within 15 seconds before the start of the formation lap and we were a few seconds too late. Obviously two disappointing results in a row is not good. However we are fighter and intend to come back strongly"
