    Again, give Honda credit for doing something Ferrari could not do.

    Happy for Max and especially gratifying to know that “Crofty” has to accept that Max beat his hero HAM.

    Amongst the dumbest, biased comments he’s made all year, the best was today when he wondered out loud—before the events of the final laps—if Max “regretted not leaving enough space for HAM at Silverstone”!! Conveniently forgetting that HAM completely missed the apex and was penalized for causing the accident, LOL. What a moron.

    Honda didn’t do it alone though.

    Is there another time where race control decided to only let some cars unlap themselves?

    Of course he is the well paid designer for the RB16B.
    He should justify his status with Dietrich.
    Horner stated yesterday that Max was clearly the main culprit for their competitiveness.

    It just seems to me that there were too many weird things going on this season that appeared to manipulate things for either Max or Hamilton.

    Not relevant to the drivers or the race, but…. since you opening the subject, I think Leclerc’s girl is very pretty. :)

    Mercedes lodges intention to appeal dismissal of Abu Dhabi GP protest


    RedBull should protest the results of the British GP!

    Now that the season is over, I think I didn't have much expectations for Ferrari so they ended up pretty much where they be. Another season where they didn't win one time. Sad.

    I thought Lewis would beat Max but it was really closer than I thought. The RB was more reliable than I thought it would be over the season. I thought Merc would be constructor champion and that ended up coming true.

    Alonso surprised me. I thought he was a has been but he pushed that POS Alpine around the track. Vettel ended up being a nothing -- he was invisible all season. Norris is still a mixed bag. McLaren might be a bit of a disappointment given how they started vs where they ended up and having the Merc engine. Stroll ended up exactly as I pictured him. Haas and Alfa were worse than I expected but Haas was actually worse than I thought if that's possible.

    The only real positive surprise IMO was George Russell.

    Oh I completely agree. Honda and McLaren were oil and water. The merger of RB's Newey and Honda was magic.

    They should just stop protesting. All they do is bully or buy the stewards(similar to what uefalona were doing back then to referees; refer to matches against chelsea and arsenal where rvp was red carded) just for the decisions to go their way as they are housing a spoiled man-child(GOAT my ass everything is handed out to him in a silver platter) that wants everything especially attention of people. What an edgy team this mershitdes gp tbfh

    Hardly matters, if race control has full authority and discretion to do so. Just because something has always (or, almost always) been done "one way", doesn't mean it's legally prohibited to do "another way".

    Precedent doesn't over-ride written rule or law.

    On another note I highly rate sainz's 1st season with ferrari. Very consistent driver all throughout the season. And also perez's defending was extremely good earlier

    Ah probably but I dont have time to look it up. What was wrong with getting those back markers out of the way so the leaders could race head to head? Its written in the rules that some or all of the cars can be let through. I take it you wanted all the cars to be let through so that your man could have won under the safety car condition right? Why dont you just admit that your mans team fkd up by not diving into the pits for tires when Max did? It is so obvious that the rules were different last week than this week for all to see. That is why Massi had to make a quick decision with a quivering voice when Horner put him on the spot on the radio. Do you honestly believe that there was no pressure on Massi from the other side to let the race finish under safety car? Thus the quivering indecisive voice. In summation, those that watch these races and season with an open mind know or at least feel that there has been something underhanded going on in F1 for quite a while and it was very clearly exposed in the last 2 races.
