If a race ever needed to be protested, this is it.

Red Bull should protest Hamilton's front wing. I think it flexes too much now.

Maybe a snack bar will get snacky and rid us of lewis and toto

Ham would have won anyway on tires if thats why max backed off. Maybe damage.

Lewis has his slave with him. Does Max or Bottas? Nope.

Even without the place switch or time penalty max would be second because of the tire choice.

Lewis doesn’t need to drive to win when he has stewards doing it for him. What a joke.

Not sold on that. He was clearly hard to pass today.

What an absolute shit show. Is this track going to be on the calendar next year? I hope not. Abu Dhabi is going to be one hell of a race and I know Max is going to be 100% ready to rock.

He was pretty cool about it. Said he was trying to let HAM pass and they made contact. Nothing earth-shattering.

I'm just going to point this out early: Max Verstappen has the potential tiebreaker over Lewis Hamilton with nine wins to eight.

You know, in case they crash next week.

So if the stewards are still investigating an incident with Max post race that means they can give Max a grid penalty for next race.

And Hamilton was fast enough to be attempting overtakes before that.

Yep. It will be the icing on the shit cake. Lewis runs into Max drom behind, and they will get Max a penalty.

They are trying to go ahead and penalize him for the next race. That happens I'm not watching it.

Everything max did was penalized today.

His 2nd start first corner manœuver.

He had to get his position back to Hamilton and Ocon !

His defense on Hamilton overtaking try at 1st corner

He was ordered to give his position back to Hamilton. When he tried doing so Hamilton didn’t want to pass before the DRS line and caused a collision.

He was then given a 5sec penalty for who knows what.

After that he let Hamilton pass and immediately countered.

He was again ordered to give his position back...

Meanwhile...

Hamilton impeded mazepin in FP. No track penalty

Bottas hits and impeded kimi in qual. No track
Penalty

Bottas broke safety car rules to let Hamilton create a 10sec Gap for the pit stop. No track penalty

Hamilton broke safety car rules leaving a way bigger gap then authorized on the first restart waking up lap so that Verstappen would have cold tires. No track penalty.

My question is : why are will still watching this bullshit ?

And I am no Verstappen fan at all...

Haven't been following F1 for quite a few years.

Watched all but the last few laps today.

When did this level of whining begin?

There's always been controversy and disagreement, but I don't remember anyone sounding like a flag football bench warmer.
