    That's BS.

    A bit of a dive bomb from Verstappen, good call from the stewards to let them race!



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 5,166 Mod ✭✭✭✭GoldFour4


    Bottas miles back, Lewis needs him further up the field



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,737 ✭✭✭RoryMac


    Hard to see how Max turns this around now, disaster of a start



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,738 ✭✭✭JeffKenna


    Rigged

    Lewis Hamilton’s race stewards doing well



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73 ✭✭nf2k


    Lewis went off the track. Ffs



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,833 ✭✭✭quokula


    More cheating from Hamilton and more race fixing from the FIA. Unbelievable.

    All the advantage was given back , ffs

    RIP Formula one.

    One rulebook for Lewis, one rulebook for Verstappen.

    Lewis Hamilton, of the FIA Stewards team, wins the championship.

    Side by side and then he's 1.4 seconds ahead. I'm trying to figure out how this is different to Saudi Arabia when Max has to go off the track.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,690 ✭✭✭DellyBelly


    Fair enough call I think. Max pushed him out...great start by Lewis.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 59,236 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Proper call by FIA



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,816 ✭✭✭TheChrisD


    This lack of investigation sets a dangerous precedent for the rest of the race.

    Ms


    Very disappointing there from the stewards about that decision.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 466 ✭✭Probes


    That is mad, a great overtake by Max and he’s been robbed there



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,945 ✭✭✭✭citytillidie


    Fixed for Lewis

    ******



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,067 ✭✭✭✭bucketybuck


    I'd say it's a subtle hint from the stewards that they have no more patience for max forcing people off the track.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 489 ✭✭BikeRacer


    Exactly, another example of Lewis having to avoid contact from a kamikaze move



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,940 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Whatever about not giving the place back which is fair but Hamilton cut right across the runoff area and ended up with a bigger time advantage than before the corner. Is that not the very definition of a lasting advantage. Can't believe they didn't even investigate it

    The FIA have done everything in their power to hand this championship to Lewis while he’s cheated and driven dirty time and again. Nobody in their right mind can call this a legitimate championship if Lewis wins.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,790 ✭✭✭✭Burkie1203


    Max got pinged last week for going off track. This is rigged

    Arrest Hamilton now. Need to get the police involved, confiscate passports.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,602 ✭✭✭Harika


    Max needs to stay in undercut area and Perez able to hold Hamilton up after a pitstop



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,968 ✭✭✭CFlat


    Brundle not supporting LH there.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,613 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Race over. FIA paid off. BS call.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Max trying to take advantage of the fact Lewis can't afford a collision by forcing him off.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,692 ✭✭✭the_pen_turner


    absolute discrace

    how is that not gaining an advantage
