    I don’t think it should be a penalty if you push someone off the track. But in this case I am not too sure.

      Why though clearly forced of track and he was well ahead going into the braking zone. Can’t see why he should be penalized for avoiding contact

        Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think it should have been penalty, but the previous laps were pretty hard defending from Verstappen and Norris was already complaining (imo way too much) so I figured it was the last straw and he’d have to give the position back.

          Norris’ complains about moving under braking were fine because max was doing that to a degree but his complains that max pushed him off when he outbroke himself and ended up going off were pretty pathetic. Neither driver came out looking good from that fight
