F1 Season 2021

He didn't though. The outcome was 100% predictable given the tyres on both cars. He might have well have stopped the race at the end of lap 57 and simply stated that Max had won. Because to all intents and purposes, that is exactly what he did.

I didn't say it was a fair spectacle.

It was however more of a spectacle than following the safety car.
 
Mercedes lodging an official protest.

Toto looking at all options before conceding.

He will be in the anger stage of grief at the moment after his team dragged themselves back into contention.

It might not be over yet.
 
Lewis ran him off the course at Silverstone and put him in hospital, and Bottas torpedo'd him in Hungary and you want to complain about what's fair and what isn't? Accusing Red Bull of cheating for a decision outside their control is pretty hilarious, mind.
Agree glad to see Hamilton lose
 
Next time we play and dominate an opponent and lead 1-0 in the last minute I think the referee should award a penalty to the opposition, send off our goalkeeper and award two goals if the penalty is scored. That should ensure a 'brilliant end'.
Stop making sense. Some absolute whoppers on here today.
 
For those of us who have followed F1 for a while. It’s funny and ironic that they campaigned so hard to get rid of Bernie Ecclestone (Make him sell up) because he had absolute power and authority and called all the shots....only to have new owners who are doing the things he was accused of.

It seems like drivers have sympathies with Hamilton.

Liberty media got what they want. I hope they aren't looking at turning F1 into WWE.
 
its has to be given to lewis and change the result because the rules was broken. it was not a fair race and the wrong result
Yeah, but what precisely did Red Bull and Max Verstappen do wrong themselves?

Lewis should have won, but that's FIA's doing not RB's. How do you penalise RB for something? FIA never penalises themselves.

As was to be expected. There's no way they'll let that outcome pass. Why would they? It looks very iffy. Changing the rules about letting cars overtake the SC.

Devil's advocate here. Say that Hamilton and Verstappen's seasons' wins were reversed, and that Hamilton would have won if they both had a DNF. Would he have taken Verstappen out on that final lap? Not wumming, it's a serious (if, at this stage, hypothetical) question.

Absolutely Hamilton would have!

I'd expect them to. On that one decision, I expect Verstappen to have sympathy for how it played out for Hamilton.
