Did Verstappen truly outsmart Piastri? Here's what the new data says:

— Oscar Piastri's chance for victory at the British Grand Prix was dashed due to a ten-second time penalty. The stewards claimed the Australian braked erratically, nearly causing a collision with Max Verstappen. However, Jolyon Palmer, a former F1 driver and current analyst, offers a different perspective. Speaking on the F1 Nation podcast, Palmer remarked:

“He didn't break as hard as he could. That's clear.”

— Palmer analyzed the data and noted that Piastri's braking was consistent with his usual pattern. He elaborated:

“I've looked at the data, and just four corners earlier, coming out of Copse, before Maggots, there's a nice long stretch. Oscar does the same thing.”

“He was routinely breaking at XX psi, brake pressure. That was not an extraordinary amount. You know, he's doing it every lap. Every lap at the same point on the Hanger Straight, he's hitting that brake pressure. It's not shocking.”

— Palmer suggested that for those unfamiliar with F1 dynamics, XX psi might seem significant, but he clarified:

“Formula X cars can brake more than double that. I know George [Russell] braked at XX psi [in Canada], but it's irrelevant. It doesn't matter. That's an incident that wasn't punished, and is very different.”

— Palmer also indicated Verstappen's involvement in the situation, explaining:

“Max, before, was able to break at XX psi and stop. And at that point, when he went past Oscar, he braked at about XX psi and went past him.”
