They don't usually flag them for other flapping body parts but that did look like a hefty piece of pipe when it finally came off. I think he's lucky it didn't cause a fire.

Hmm..Anyone else felt that Kimi should have been called in for the flapping exhaust?
Nope, just like when the McLarens had their mirrors flapping around in the past, they were not called in....

You know, I had originally planned to see the race in-person, given that everyone had been saying this was the last year of F1 at Magny-Cours. Of course now they are saying, well, hmmm...maybe one more year.

Scammers!

Not that a trip to Magny-Cours would be a waste, I just didn't want to make it a special consideration and find out it was a LIE.

tsk tsk

You should know F1 and BE and MM's modus operandi by now...Lies, Ferrari bias, extortion, and nazi hookers.

If i recall correctly the mirror fell off pretty quick.

The exhaust lasted for some time.
Kimi even pitted and they didn't even bother
taking it off.
