Alex Albon calls for stricter F1 penalties: ‘They aren’t teaching the drivers anything’

The topic of penalties has been a hot🗹 talking point in recent races.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez was handed a five-second penalty for colliding with Albon in Singapore, similarly, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Logan Sargeant got the same for effectively ending 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valtteri Bottas’ race early in Japan.
In the past, stewards often handed out drive-through penalties for these offences but over the years🃏 the severity of the penalty has been reduced to just five seconds.

Albon is one of several drivers who feels the penalty 🐠system needs looking at
“In Turn 11 [Perez] did the same move again to m😼e on track [as in Singapore]" Albon said.
“I avoided it, and then he did 🅺it again to Kevin. I was 🏅behind him, so I had the best view of everyone.
“Clearly it's (the five-second penalty) isn't really teaching the drivers 🍬anything because the penalties aren't strict enough. I mean, that's two races in a row [Perez has received such a penalty].”
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell has suggested th꧂e “consequences of the incident” need to be taken into account as well.
“I’ve been in a position where if I look at Austin last year when I made the mista🐻ke with Carlos and I got five seconds for it,” he explained.
“That was probably driv✃e-through worthy. It’s difficult because we say we shouldn’t judge the consequences of the incident.
“But sometimes you need to judge t🎀he consequences of the inc⭕ident.”
