I won't spoil it, but was a fantastic race,especially the last lap. Best result from my perspective. Not a fan of you know who,smug.
Apparently lawyers are now getting involved.

Hardly surprised as the decision goes against established practice, that’s been the problem this year inconsistent application of the rules, both ways. Due to the vast sums involved it’s less about racing and more politics.
I am a fan of Hamilton for numerous reasons and I dislike RB racing approach from management (marko and Horner) down to verstappen, however I am a fan of racing and this season has been frustrating due to the inconsistency, political machinations, etc etc etc
This has effected the results both negatively and positively for both teams but has left me scratching my head.
Thankfully Moto Gp has not gone down this rabbit Warren yet.

Well..... I never fell asleep during that one. Fantastic!. Pity it's still not decided who is the champ/chump... Q the f**king pencil squeezers in suits and all the rest of the parasites... Lewis must be miffed... he never put a foot wrong, but thats racing for you  I still would not pay to watch it though.... sooner nail my knackers to the floor for free...... |

Would like to see if Hamilton could do anything in any other team rather than the car that's been the best for years? Buts that's never going to happen is it. At the end of the day RB took a gamble putting on new tyres and it paid off.

I don't watch it much, only the 7 mins highlights on YT. F1 has lost it's way, the cars don't sound like a true F1 car should sound like, too many driver aids and that idiotic KIRS system that means a skilled driver in a slower car can overtake then get blitzed on the next straight. And, as mentioned, it's all down to politics. On a personal note I can't stand Hamilton (for many reasons) and was stunned when he went off piste and then did NOT have to concede the advantage he made. I think that is the only time I have ever seen this happen. So when Verstappen passed Hamilton on that final lap I was overjoyed.
Not sure if I'll bother watching it at all next year. And if this result goes to court...then F1 in my eyes has finished.

Im not a anorak fan so dont understand all the rules but the thing that really gets me is the stupid safety car rules where they bunch up. Because someone crashes half a mile away Hamilton loses a 12 second advantage, thats what the problem is. The rest is just bullsh1t called "strategy" (With a virtual safety car I think they retain positions and gaps)
I know they do this for safety but with all the technology im sure they could restart the racing with the same gaps and positions after a safety car comes in.

That was one crazy final 6 laps
I doubt any side are going to agree on a court imposed victory
The amount of confusion was mind boggling, having said that Horner did a really good con job on Masi to have “some” of the cars unlap themselves
Should it have been all the lapped cars or none at, I guess we’ll find out in due course
The race and the results will be talked about for decades

Wouldn’t be surprised if Hamilton walked away from it and retired he looks pretty sick of the whole thing tbh.

How dare you take the piss out of the chap/chump. He's a style icon at the cutting edge of fashion. For heavens sake, you have to take someone/her/him/they/whatever seriously when they wear garments like that dont you?....dont you??
