Wow! That's amazing. What I find really amazing is that F1 can impose a penalty like this and the organizers have to pay it. I hope that they do anyway because the track in Turkey is the only interesting new track on the schedule. All of the other new tracks are boring.

Wonder where the money goes. Other sanctioning bodies usually put it into some kind of charity or driver's support fund. Maybe Bernie needs new shoes!

Have a good one,
