Paywall?

Can I just say that the fact I didn't know whether it would be a penalty or not before the end of the race is absolutely horrible. Would it be so hard to only allow investigations after the race if it won't lead to time penalties (so team fines or other things that do not affect the race) or if no driver(s) involved in an incident are still in the race?

    There was no race start at that moment, so Tsunoda isn't at fault for a false start. There is nothing to appeal and this will be swatted away.

    Yeah, but that's not what I was talking about. Instead of looking at it and saying "no further investigation" because there was nothing to it, they decided to go the "investigated after the race" route, which is what I'm complaining about. It's not this specific instance, but every instance of this happening while the driver(s) in question is still in the race that's the problem.
