Wait, so if I get in three crashes in the first three races and destroy my engine each time, I have to race without an engine for the rest of the season?
I just got really confused when I read the following and it was like F1 spoke a different language than any I've learned
Quote:
Lewis Hamilton faces a huge challenge to close Sebastian Vettel’s early lead in the world championship standings after receiving a five-place grid penalty due to a gearbox change the team had to institute after a hydraulics leak at the first round in Australia.
A software error cost Hamilton a probable win in Melbourne as the Ferrari driver established a seven-point advantage with victory. After the race Mercedes admitted the British driver suffered a hydraulics leak, adding that he was fortunate to finish the race, let alone in second place.
He lost the race because of software? Do they do F1 on Nintendo now? At least I know what a grid penalty is.
