What bad luck? Vettel cracked under pressure again. Like Hamilton said, he forced him into a mistake, nothing for free tbh. On every single Tilkedrome, he would have passed him around the astroturf. Sadly, Vettel is way too prone to mental errors. His post-race hissy fit was childish. He can grow a fancy beard but still acts like he's 6 years old.

The issue is not that Vettel made a mistake, the issue is he got a penalty for nothing. Literally his only other option was to steer himself straight into the wall on the left to (maybe) avoid sliding to the outside.

 

And yeah, those 'fancy' Vettel-beards and 'fancy' Hamilton-haircuts are only making me dislike both of them even more :p  This is pretty much the one time ever I completely agree with Vettel though.

FIA stated the penalty was applied the same way Verstappen got a 5 secs. penalty for forcing Raikkonen off at Suzuka last year so they are consistent. That's a fair call then.

Which in my opinion was a way more justified penalty than Vettel's penalty. The situations are rather different as well, wouldn't call it consistent. Verstappen went off and steered back on the track where Raikkonen was, Vettel went into the grass and because of that logically lost control for a minute and slid onto the track (where Hamilton could have moved the other way and easily passed him, but alright).

Max Verstappen steals Austrian GP with an actual pass for the win with 3 laps remaining... but he's under investigation for banging wheels with LeClerc in the process :p

It would be so much FIA to penalize an actual pass for the win :facepalm:

    • WWE introduced two new Women's Championship belts. The first one introduced was the Women's United States Championship and not shortly after that the Women's Intercontinental Championship. The Women's US Title will be exclusive to SmackDown and the Women's IC Title will be exclusive to RAW.
    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
