It was the talk of the town after the race: the penalties handed out in large numbers to
Lando Norris,
Sergio Perez (2x), Yuki Tsunoda and so on. While many thought that the stewards had done a good job, there was also a lot of criticism from people who thought that the race should just go on.
Will Buxton bumped into one of the stewards at the airport.
Buxton faced a lot of backlash on his Twitter page a day earlier when he revealed that he agreed with the penalties.
He says:
"Interestingly, I've seen folks getting quite angry about the fact I used the regulations to back up this argument yesterday. (Sporting Code Appendix L). The rules are there for a reason. Everyone knows them. They shouldn't be surprised that they get penalised when they break them."
