Formula 1 Round 22 Abu Dhabi GP

It’s just sad that we’ve got to this point in F1. We should be applauding that overtake, not reprimanding it.

You're missing the point, Hill is always pro Hamilton regardless of situation or circumstance. But in this case even he thinks its a bad call.

How about Max makes the apex for a start?

Am I right in thinking that you can take a shortcut which saves you half a second, build up a second lead, slow down so the second car is only half a second and then just take off?

From the onboard of Verstappen its pretty clear. Hamilton gained a massive lasting advantage which he didn't give back.

Verstappen got the car in first, he might have kept it in the white line but it was fairly aggressive so Hamilton had nowhere to go he had to go wide other wise it would be a collision. Correct decision, let them race and decide the championship on track

If you’re driving a Mercedes, yes. You can also be in second before taking the shortcut and be in first after taking it, and not have to give the place back.

Red bull should have Perez doing the same move on Max so he can cur the corner as well and gain time

I know this thread will be dozens of pages of loons whinging about cheating and conspiracies, but again maxes tyres render it all window dressing anyway.

Hamilton would be past him by now anyway, assuming max didn't hit him on the way past of course.

Look whichever side you're on its just a shame if a title might be decided by poor stewarding. Even if it stays as is, Lewis probably had the pace to win it anyway but now there will be a question mark over his win

its the not giving back the advantage that I’ve an issue with and seems that even most on sky think the same.

The more is see it the more it's a BS call by the stewards. Hamilton gained a huge advantage.
