If I'm not mistaken, that same Matsushita is still competing in F2 five years later. His window of opportunity to get snapped up by an F1 team is probably over at this point, but I remember an announcer saying the same about Marcus Ericsson during a Monaco GP2 race years ago and he raced in F1 long enough to be immortalized in a meme.
All of the turn 1 incidents is when the public room host sneakily turns off ABS in an F1 2020 lobby. So many lockups, it's a good thing the runoff is the size of a parking lot
woah woah woah. part of the clip in the 10:50 range said Matsushita was banned from the next race, lap 10 restart incident if I'm following but then lap 14 restart has Matsushita getting caught up in an incident. The hell is this? kick a man when he's down? Good thing I don't normally watch these races because I think that's a b.s. penalty. guy gets banned for the next race, gets caught up in an incident while trying to finish the current race, that seems a bit excessive.
