Still a really weird one - and it ended up as one of the factors costing McLaren the constructors title that year. Joan Pablo's relationship with Ron really soured after that too although, because it's Ron Dennis, you have to expect that.

Another notable mention: Otto Stuppacher 1976 in Monza. He started in a privately financed Tyrell 007 (the car piloted by Sheckter and Depailler in the 1975 season) and missed qualifying for the race (8 secs behind the penultimate driver Arturo Merzario in the weak Wolf-Williams). But rules at that time had it that the permission to start in a GP was not dependent on the time set but on the position in qualifying meaning out of 29 entrants 26 were allowed to start despite their time in qualifying. Hunt, Mass and Watson however had their lap time in qualifying disallowed because of fuel irregularities so Stuppacher could have raced in the GP but it turned out that he had flown back to Vienna on the evening after the qualifying and could not make it to Monza in time to start at the GP.

Thank you for reading out the subheadings

Kolles... His wiki page has this gem. "In July 2013, it emerged that Kolles had previously tried to blackmail Mercedes-Benz Motorsport boss Toto Wolff after he had allegedly recorded Wolff making negative remarks about the Mercedes F1 Team's management." The Andretti/Unser one is good. Such a shame they didn't get to race as that was a great achievement. Gachot is still the best reason. And Mansell's the funniest.

Doing this kind of "double duty" is absolutely normal in the US, so they probably didn't even think about a rule against it. Both then made their debut in the US GP, with being the only race for Bobby Unser and the first pole in the first race for Andretti. The later wasn't such a surprise for the US audience, as he was literally a god of pole positions back then.

Montoya confirmed it was a bike accident in the Beyond the Grid podcast FYI ☺️

I remember the Massa penalty that never was.

with Mansell the car was designed for Hakkinen. Marlboro wanted a champion only 2 were Mansell and Prost. No eddie irvine having appendicitis on wiki it says he PO. practiced only. Modena also missed the weighbridge and was disquallified.

Fun fact 6:47 that's actually Mario's twin brother Aldo in the photo. In practice for the 1969 Indianapolis 500 Mario suffered facial burns so for the front row photos they had Aldo stand in. If you look at the individual qualifying photos from that year you'll notice Mario kept his helmet and balaclava on

I still remember how Button's grid penalty still intact 4 years ago.

I think Giedo van der Garde should be there when he missed the whole of 2015 despite having a signed contract.

At the German GP in Hockenheim in 1989, in the days when there were so many teams that they actually had prequalifying before qualifying "proper", the two Rial-Ford cars didn't qualify for the race. Volker Weidler's car was disqualified because it had to be push-started, and Christian Danner's car was too slow to qualify. It turned out later that the team didn't have any parts for the cars which meant that Danner had to drive half of the straights with the rev limiter on because they didn't have the right gear ratios for Hockenheim. Somewhere I have an old casette recording of Danner's car changing up the gears and then going BRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGG for the last few seconds of the straight every lap.

While I see what you are saying, thing is that was ALL drivers that were in that same boat at the same time (Same can be said for ALOT of series as well). This list covers just THOSE particular drivers missing out.

How about, a race ban extended? Eddie Irvine was blamed for the multi car pile up in Brazil 1994 involving himself, Eric Bernard, Jos Verstappen and Martin Brundle. Eddie Jordan appealed the ruling which sentenced him to a one race ban initially. The appeal failed and Irvine's ban was increased to a 3 Grands Prix ban, meaning that he actually missed the Pacific, San Marino and Monaco Grands Prix, before returning in Spain
