Not enough slip angle?
You need to turn up the tire pressure, bro!

That's exactly it...and I know it...It will take me a few events to get comfortable with how much slip these tires like. I was running 30 cold/38 hot...could probably have gone to 32/40.

^ passing with 4 wheels over the white line is no-no in F1, doesn't matter if it's outside or inside line.

mad jelly you're running slicks already... I'm still on staggered OEM wheels with 225/245 Z1's! Find me a pair of 8.5" DS2's so I can at least run a square setup!

Thai, I'm pretty sure the same rule applies in NASCAR. I don't know why they didnt make a few calls. Probably because it was exciting and they want to keep their viewers.

How sure is pretty sure? F1 will get called immediately. Like I said, NASCAR is dirty.

Being as they only run two tracks a year where the white line of the track boundries come into play I think its fair game. They were running wide on almost all the corned exits all day (turn 1 and 5) with no penalty. NASCAR is not F1.

Not immediately, Vettel got penalised after the race and podium cerimony was over and dropped to 4th with a 20sec penalty (germany a few weeks ago). Get your ish straight!
