Hill, Villenueve, Andretti, Mansell, Coronel, Wurtz, Abt e tanti altri piloti ed addetti ai lavori hanno sostenuto che la penalità a Sebastian Vettel è stata ridicola. L’ex corridore JJ Lehto, ha aggiunto: “Chiunque abbia corso, sa che Vettel aveva ragione”. Ecco le migliori reazioni sui Social media:
My wife says it was f**king racing. I've had a word with her about swearing in the house. #f1

I think the function of the stewards is to penalize flagrantly unsafe moves not honest mistakes as result of hard racing. What happened at #CanadaGp is not acceptable at this level of our great sport. @F1

my observation on Vettel rejoining: his helmet moved to look into mirror only after steering correction! that he slid that far is laws of physics. No space for Lewis is name of game with street tracks. What happened to #LetThemRace ? Was it sketchy? yes! a penalty? not in my view

Any of the stewards ever raced at the front in F1? Didn’t watch the race.. have now seen the “incident”.
Mental penalty. 🥴🧐— Mark Webber (@AussieGrit) June 9, 2019
Terrible just terrible decision by the F1 Stewards. Just loved Seb swapping place boards around 👌🏻👌🏻

L’opinione di Beat Zehnder, team manager Alfa Romeo: “La decisione è una barzelletta, è così che si rovina il nostro sport – ha annunciato Zehnder ai microfoni di Blick – I regolamenti dicono che non è possibile appellarsi a questo tipo di decisione a meno che emergano nuove prove”.
In casa Mercedes si fa festa, nonostante tutto.
P1 🙌🏾🏆 This weekend hasn’t been easy and I am so thankful of my team. We faced different challenges but we persevered and got the job done. It’s not the way I wanted to win but this is racing. It was tough out there, I really put the pressure on @MercedesAMGF1 📷 @MSI_Images pic.twitter.com/xiOsGafpti

Toto Wolff ha dichiarato che la decisione dei commissari deve essere accettata, ma le regole potrebbero cambiare: “Se ci sarà una proposta per adeguare le regole a favore di una lotta più dura, sarò il primo a sostenere tale idea, perché maggiore è il pericolo, maggiore è l’intrattenimento”.
