You should remember article 27.6, which says: "More than one change of direction to defend a position is not permitted. Any driver moving back towards the racing line, having earlier defended his position off-line, should leave at least one car width between his own car and the edge of the track on the approach to the corner."

[@jarso]

At full: FIA Formula 1 Regulations 2018 Article 27.2 Drivers must observe the provisions of the Code relating to driving behaviour on circuits at all times. FIA International Sporting Code Appendix L Chapter IV, Paragraph 2 b. Overtaking, according to the circumstances, may be carried out on either the right or the left. A driver may not deliberately leave the track without justifiable reason. "More than one change of direction to defend a position is not permitted." Any driver moving back towards the racing line, having earlier defended his position off-line, should leave at least one car width between his own car and the edge of the track on the approach to the corner. However, manoeuvres liable to hinder other drivers, such as deliberate crowding of a car beyond the edge of the track or any other abnormal change of direction, are strictly prohibited. Any driver who appears guilty of any of the above offences will be reported to the Stewards. e. It is not permitted to drive any car unnecessarily slowly, erratically or in a manner deemed potentially dangerous to other drivers at any time.

Great video. Still Riccy yielded sensibly many times throughout the race and Maxy was overagressive in defense before the crash. I reckon some sensible respect needs to be accorded with teammates. Like Nicki Lauda said, mainly Max's fault.

[@bigfoz]

Ashish R Sharma i agree the way max defended/attacked throughout the entire race needs to be addressed because all engagements he had all he did was basically tell the other drover back off or we crash. And that was demonstrated when it eventually happened, riccairdo got himself into a position where he would likely overtake, verstappen created the crash.

[@chainbear]

Lots of opinions here in the comments. I love it. What do you think of the Ocon/Raikkonen crash? I'm clearly on the side of Ocon at fault but at the time there were people saying Raikkonen shouldn't have been where he was.

[@ZenonENTX]

I think Ocon just wasn't aware that Kimi was there in the 1st place. But, honestly Kimi took a weird position to overtake, it was quite obvious that Ocon was going to take the apex and Kimi wouldn't make it unless Ocon completely gave up the fight. At the end of the day, Ocon paid for his mistake, so not a big deal.

[@kevincossou3012]

Ocon top i really like Raikkonen but it's a flop bad position for overtake

[@nugrahamidarna]

Chain Bear F1 rai is right to be where he was. Problem is, he wasnt danny ric. He needs to learn outbreak his enemy when he is on racing line. Yet, he didnt. Otherwise, that wouldnt happened

[@dml09]

Initially I thought Raikkonen was too tight to the corner entry and not far enough alongside Ocon to have a chance at overtaking, but watching it back he had a better line and more of his car alongside than I first thought. Ocon was defending before the braking zone, so he surely knew Raikkonen was there, which makes me think Ocon might simply have misjudged how much space to leave, as he tried to maximise his racing line through the corner. That said, Raikkonen was still relatively tight to the corner, and with only around half of his car alongside, it would probably have been more sensible for him to back off if he were able. He did appear to have more of his car alongside as they came into the braking zone though, so he may well have been committed enough that he couldn't back out. Fitting two cars through these tight, wall-lined square corners is not easy though. It often doesn't come off well unless the inside car has most of their car alongside, and has a lot of space on the inside so that they've got a wide enough entry to avoid running wide on exit. This was the case with Raikkonen and Ocon coming into the previous corner, which they got through with no contact.

[@jonathanhealy402]

Ocon and Raikkonen were side by side for the whole race up until that corner so it's not like Raikkonen charged down the inside. Ocon should wear the lion's share of the blame since he cut across and didn't afford Raikkonen space.

Nice video but still think it's maxs fault. He moves and gives Daniel no room to go.

[@sjonniedegangster9939]

Max maybe moved like half a meter to the right and then 2 to the left. And danny ric left it very late. But in my opinion it doesn't even matter because the team lost 20 points and that hurts being a redbull fan

[@MrRhubarbs]

Sjonnie De Gangster true but max doesn't play fair if you make a move early. Almost out brakes himself earlier in the race, ran wide and Danny Ricc almost went into the wall. Agreed it was awful for the team but I think it's unfair to say Danny Ricc was responsible because as we've seen time and time again if max hadn't moved back across he would've made the move stick.

[@LucasDegen]

No matter who to blame, I loved the fight they had all weekend. It wasn't even for first place so I rather see a great fight and crashing, then a boring "Rosberg-win" we saw a few years ago. I watch F1 since 1991, and I watch it for the show.

[@sjonniedegangster9939]

MrRhubarbs i would blame both. And those moves earlier were fine I think. Ricciardo also did some verry tough defending and that's what we turn our tv's on for right

[@tobiahgoodin8185]

Ricciardo was giving Max ample room all race, because he knows Max doesn't care if he hits someone. This is on Max and Red Bull for not giving team orders. Max doesn't care if he causes someone to crash, even his own team mate. Worst kind of driver IMO as he hinders the team. Last year was mostly mechanical issues. This year, Max's driving has been costing Red Bull massive points.

[@michieljurgens5391]

I love the way you analyse the red bull crash, not taking sides and explaining it from both sides

[@BC-iq8ks]

I believe they should use a different wording for the rule to make it simpler. The one move rule comes from the idea that you can defend a line or force the attacker into a disadvantageous line. Following the movements from the car behind is bloking. So just write it down like that. You can't defend a dummy though. Because if you remain on your line you didn't fall for it, thus it isn't a dummy, and if you fall for it and defend again it's a double move. Once you fell for a dummy you have two options: accept it and try to defend from where you are or crash while trying to cover it off, like verstappen did on Sunday .

[@carmillawoo6505]

The whole moving under braking rule is FIA pussyfooting anyway. That rule didn't exist 15 years ago, it was made to stop max becoming a world champion instead of vettel.

[@Cynyr]

i'm pretty sure it was made to avoid a max-ric type accident, or the sort of an accident that Mark Webber had a few years back with a caterham. These sorts of accidents can be very dangerous as it's very easy for the following car to be launched by the rear tires. This has been helped with the lower nose rules, but wheel to wheel can still launch the following car. Somewhere like Baku that probably means landing on/in/over a wall.

[@BC-iq8ks]

LillyGaming I never said moving under braking though. That said, even though the rule didn't exist explicitly 15 years ago, it was considered illegal blocking, as the car behind is forced to give up the move or crash. Again it returns to the principle that you may defend a line not the car behind you. Ignoring all that, it's a stupid move, as it will end like it did on Sunday more often than not. As for the FIA conspiracy, has Max even been penalized by this, despite the stewards saying that he moved twice.

[@HimmeetValot]

They definitely should penalize Max so this double move defending doesnt became the norm.

[@mdace14]

Do agree with Lauda. Verstappen was 70% to blame and Riccardo was 30% (Even if it pains me as a RIC fan)

[@vernonbear]

FpsRanga With you there. Neither driver was blameless, Max should shoulder the burden though. Neither driver was helped by the team on the pit wall though, leaving them to race has been their undoing, racers want to race, teammates even more so. All teammates will say that getting the better of the guy in the same car is important. Throughout the race Max & Daniel were trading blows and I felt that Max was being too aggressive, Daniel should’ve known that Max would be planning to defend his position aggressively, that’s where Daniel made his error. Had both parties been managed by their team more effectively then it never would’ve happened. I want to see racing but as Chain Bear rightly says, crashing brings less points than losing a position, in this case, Red Bull lost everything by not having more control of their drivers.

[@Cynyr]

I agree that Daniel should have know that max would move under braking, but the fact is that Max should not be moving around as much as he does. This isn't the first race where he moves around a lot, and Daniel isn't the first to run into issues with it. I know other drivers have complained on the radio and at drivers meetings about the movement.

[@HimmeetValot]

Yeah other drivers have been complaining about Max for a long time now. The stewards should give him a little penalty so he would cool down. And to deter others from taking the same idiotic style.

[@DaniDuffMan]

I can't see why Ric should be 30% fault here, Ver simply broke the rules twice. If you say he should expect Ver to defend like that, well, he shouldn't try to overtake him at all. And F1 would be dead. Furthermore, being on the same team doesn't increase Ric's fault, it just makes Ver looks more stupid, in my opinion. Luckily we have enough rules to cover most of Ver's mistakes.

[@sjonniedegangster9939]

Plamen Stoyanov can't agree more

[@Killerspaten]

The difference is that Verstappen is defending reckless, especially the first comeback move he did when he touched wheels with Ricciardo. If Ricciardo would have left a little less space (he was entitled to do so since he already was ahead) there would have been a huge accident.

[@Jeronidemus]

It's not reckless, it's on the very edge and sometimes slightly over it, as said above, this is what Senna and Schumacher did as well. Racing with not too much respect for your oppononent.

[@ZenonENTX]

Exciting is one thing, danger is another. A crash on the straight could have been very bad. Schumacher is also infamous for being a rather dirty driver, while being undoubtedly fast. Senna had his fair share of dirty driving, but he is immortalized at this point. Just watch Schumacher Barrichello Hungary 2010, horrible move that could have killed Ruben. Nostalgia, everyone forgets the bad and remembers the good parts only.

[@crankybloke]

I have to agree with Lauda's assessment of the RIC vs VER incident and place the blame at 70% VER/30% RIC. Danny had been faster than Max all day and a lot of Max's moves were borderline at best. Yes, Danny made a move a little late but Max made 2 moves; a definite no-no.

[@liamnolan3997]

[@ApparentlyGod]

I'm not sold on Danny's dummy being too late. The average result is exactly what you want from the defending driver, for them to move and thus commit as it's too late for them to come back across. Any other driver (except maybe K Mag) would've been sensible enough to accept that they were dummied and prepare for a counter attack in the next series of corners except the defending driver this time happened to be Max, the very reason a written rule about moving under braking exists. Danny's move could be considered a gamble but the only risk is if the defending driver is gonna play by the rules or not.

2:17, the rule doesn't exist anymore, you should check it. (i suppose you refer to the 27.6). Half (or more) of the rules of the 27th chapter went to the bin for some reason in the 24th of january 2017 release of the F1 rules. Things are even more foggy in that respect now.

[@b00fman22]

Its still a rule they just removed 27.6 because it was covered under a different section

[@gg-gg-gg-gg]

27.4 At no time may a car be driven unnecessarily slowly, erratically or in a manner which could be deemed potentially dangerous to other drivers or any other person. His driving falls under this stipulation.

@Dion , Ok, i didn't spotted that, thx. @G A , Yeah, but that is open for interpretation, in my opinion, that's what i mean by foggy.

[@b00fman22]

also under the fai code and regulations. Appendix L, Chapter IV part 2.b "More than one change of direction to defend a position is not permitted"

[@gg-gg-gg-gg]

I tried to find the Appendix L rule but I wasn't able to.... let me see if i can now with the full title.

Super video. I'm so happy you've made a series out of racing tactics and moves!!!! Great job!

Someone should send verstappen this video, and specifically timestamp the part about not running the other guy off the road. Most of the season I've wanted max to win for the change but his abd red bulls conduct lately has changed my mind

[@pabloespinoza9046]

You are a wise wise man

These things seem so obvious. Thank you for presenting, even the greyness, with such even clarity, to us reactive fans.
