Sporting keep playing themselves into trouble

Sporting off to a bad start against Man City. Give it away in a manner that we've done plenty of times this season playing out from the back, and the keeper basically dives the wrong way for a Foden shot. Then Vik has a golden chance, and totally fluffs it!

Chris Birchall to become a ref

I guess there's just no allowance for it. I agree it seems a bit silly that if the race is delayed because a driver is in the litter on the formation lap then there shouldn't be an issue with getting them out and getting back to the pits to take the start from there. Then again, if he hadn't...

Because you're not allowed to receive outside assistance from track marshals and continue. It's a black and white rule, so unfortunately if you beach your car, it's over. I'm entirely sure there used to be something in the regs that went along the lines of "unless your car is considered to be...

I feel even worse for the Aston mechanics. Not only did they have to fix two cars in a very short space of time with very little sleep. Then, daddy's little boy goes and does something as dumb as this and doesn't even get to start: They might as well have not bothered.

I thought it was a slam dunk 5 seconds tbf. I don't know if there's some loophole about the race having technically not started, maybe, so it wasn't a jump start, just a procedural cock up? I've not read the document yet to know what the logic is there.

I don't see how he avoids one.

Well done Lando, would you like to bottle it a bit more?

I didn't even think it was possible to get a black flag DSQ these days. When was the last time that happened? I know cars have been DSQ'd after races in the last few years, but during the race? That's got to be going back a few years. Mercedes are getting a DSQ as well afterwards.

This is Max's race to lose now, surely.

Well this is just chaos

Lance, you've had a shocker there

Albon not starting confirmed

Apparently Albon's confirmed he won't start the race

I can't see the full grid starting. Albon especially, that was a massive hit.

I wouldn't want to be an Aston Martin mechanic today, probably been up best part of all night, now they've got two cars to rebuild in the next few hours. Earning their money today.

Both Red Bull's out, both VCARB'S in. I think we know what Whinger Spice will be doing later...

Lando, bottling it? Nah, won't hear of it 😂😂😂

In classic Norris style, he's absolutely bottling this.
