"At what time do you think is the least painful moment for him to take the penalty?" Justin asked as the feed still showed Fatih chasing Jewiss through the long straight leading to Maggots.
"No meaningful distance change is going to happen within those three laps that makes it worth delaying it. But going at the earliest, which is the end of this lap, will not be optimal either, since everyone is still as close as they will be, other than a safety car restart. He can't really risk it all, hoping for a safety car to come and rescue him. However, even if that happens, he is still going to go to the back of the grid anyway, so he is doomed either way," Brad said. Before Justin could say anything in response, the radio communication between Fatih and his race engineer was played.
{We have been issued a ten-second Stop and Go penalty for the incident,} James's voice was heard on the feed.
{....} his update was met with silence on Fatih's side, so he repeated it.
