Ferrari driver168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Carlos Sainz believes the current racing rules in F1 are "clear enough" as the incident between Verstappen and Norris from Austria wa🦂s a hot talking point in the paddock.

“In my view it is clear that you can move to defend and then come back, but always leave one car’s width to the white line so the other car fits,” Sainz said. “That’s the rule. I really struggle with the fact that we need to keep adding rules to the 🐽racing side of it. 

“I th💟ink there’s so many already, if you read the rulebook about what you have to do if you overtake on the inside, what you need to do if you defend on the inside, what you need to do if⛄ you attack on the outside, what you need to do if you defend from the outside. 

“It’s all a different set of regulations that is already super detailed and specific which I strugg༒le to follow exactly when I’m driving a car at 300 kph. Because yo🦂u cannot think at that speed about all those rules. Let’s say I don’t want any further rules. The rules are clear enough. And there was a decision taken on the stewards' side already. There’s nothing much to talk about for sure.”
