F1 2021 Round 11: Hungaroring

Schumacher was a ruthless so and so who would do anything to win including deliberately taking out an opponent. I can't think of another F1 driver from the past forty years you could describe in similar terms. Hamilton is a whiner and a bad loser - the Arsene Wenger of motorsports, you could say - but a fair sportsman. It's just his lifestyle and his half-assed espousal of certain causes that make him appear unlikeable to some people.

The only person I regularly see as a counter to Schumacher is Senna, as if he was gentleman driver. He literally took people out and Eddie Irvine would tell you about his off track aggression and narrsasism. To be at the top of any sport you have to be super confident. Hamilton has backed it up over the years, but in my humble opinion he hasn't been tested since Rosberg. As an aside, a lot of counter arguments since Silverstone was that Rosberg, apparently Lewis's worst critic said it was a racing incident so therefore it was, last weekend put that to bed as he literally cheered him on and was as bad as any Sky Sports fan boy during the race, I nearly vomitted. I am sure there are some guys here from the Rte days and they would not be as sympathetic. I seen a great meme of Hamilton solo on the grid, saying how the British media see F1.

I don’t think he actually thinks that, though. I thought I saw someone show his Instagram story where he said how amazing it was to see Alonso race like that again. He was probably just annoyed at the time.

The penalties are fine from a driver standpoint, they made errors and are being punished in line with similar incidents. The issue is that Red Bull are also being punished for those errors for being collateral damage.

To be fair, it was Stroll who caused LeClercs damage, not Bottas.

Sorry yeah, he got 5 place grid penalty tho. Bit of a joke

I think 5 is fair enough for Stroll, took out 1 car. Bottas took out Norris, that's 5, took out Perez, should be another 5 and damaged Verstappen, should be 3. So 13 grid place penalty is my calculation.

If I knock down and kill a cyclist in the rain will the judge go easy on me because it was raining? I seriously doubt it. I don’t understand why the conditions should be factored in. These guys are supposed to be the best in the world. Bottas and Stroll should be at the back of the grid at the next race or else not on the grid at all and it should have been the same for Hamilton when he took Max out. The FIA are a joke.

I obviously would but I wouldn't expect the judge to entertain it, especially if the cyclist had a high vis and lights etc maybe I'm wrong but imo it's ridiculous that they take rain into consideration when deciding on a penalty.
