Gutted for George, to lose out on a hard-fought victory because of being underweight.
Still, it's the rules.
Can Max get random engine penalties at every race for the rest of the season?
That was a major factor in making the race interesting. I cannot help but think that had he done his PU upgrade in Hungary, he would have won by a pit stop at Spa.
It was good strategy that he took his lumps in Belgium, where passing is possible. Others will be facing the same choice at tracks like Zandvoort and Baku where you really cannot make up places. Ferrari, for one, will not change engines in Monza where you can overtake - the Tifosi would skin Fred alive!
Norris made way too many errors, while Hamilton drove like the seasoned pro that he is, now that they have given him a capable car. Piastri was amazing.
