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:

    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
