Which is, if you take a closer look, actually more than 0.

This is why people hate modern F1, and especially modern F1 fans.

Do you think he should not have received a penalty for this then? Where do you draw the line?

It has been like this for decades.

If there was a tolerance on the threshold, everyone would just calibrate to the tolerated threshold. There's no point in having one.

I've tripped a speed camera at < 1km/h over the threshold too. I typically drive somewhere between the speed limit and the threshold, as it causes the least trouble.

The graphic is incorrect. Hamilton exceeded the pit lane speed limit by 0.6 km/h, and there was a tolerance of +0.5 km/h, which he exceeded. So you’re very correct.
