And you wonder why drivers are pissed because they don’t know what they can or can’t do. Albon taking out Vettel during sprint while vettel went as wide as possible was way worse, can definitely deem Albon at fault, and wasn’t penalized.
Even Horner and Marko criticized Perez for that move, and told him pre race not to do it there.
