This thread has turned into a hyperbole see-saw. Such extreme views on both sides. The truth resides somewhere near the middle. Haha absolutely! I think the poll accurately describe the situation. If anyone is to blame it's Lewis, but we're content to have it be a racing incident. If they both suff...

Is it reasonable to assume that Hamilton ran wide out of Copse because his car was briefly destabilised by the contact? I would imagine Max's car would be more of a door stop rather than a magnet? Joking aside, I think the issue was the understeer, not the contact. Contact will always make that car...

This thread has turned into a hyperbole see-saw. Such extreme views on both sides. The truth resides somewhere near the middle. :thumbup: Yep, and let's not forget the stewards saw fit to share blame (predominately Hamilton, but not entirely). Both drivers contributed to the incident, both could ha...

So just asking the question here. Corner speed aside & keeping in mind that at one point Hamilton was virtually level with Verstappen, by how much does this incident differ from Verstappens pass on Leclerc in Austria in 2019? Verstappen was slightly behind going into the corner the same as Hamilton...

Good points. If it's possible to extract him from his Merc contract would Russell take a Red Bull drive in 2022 or would he wait for Merc to see if they came back in 2023. On one hand the Merc drive is the better option. On the other there is no guarantee Merc won't pass on him again. RB are a 1 dr...

I have no qualms about calling Hamilton or any other driver out on their mistakes whenever they make them, but I can't recall the last time Hamilton made contact with another driver outside of Rosberg in Spain 2016 (...) Alex Albon would like a word! You're absolutely correct but those incidents we...

Russell to Red Bull A possibility, if Mercedes fails to offer him a seat at the big team again. I'm sure he doesn't have infinite patience. An interesting question? If one had similar offers on the table for 2022 from Red Bull and Mercedes which one would one take? I'm not saying that's relevant to...

Brundle mentions in his column: "This means likely 70/30 to blame but not wholly." Thank you, Siao7. It's an interesting column, though I can't see any of the clips used. Does Martin explain more in them? He indeed writes the quote to give above, but I find it intriguing (to say the least) that he ...

I think that regarding the rest of the post we just have different opinions on how to interpret the rules and I feel that it is a fair interpretation even though I disagree with it. However the stewards absolutely do have the option to differentiate between wholly and predominantly. George Russell'...

Hamilton lifted but not by the requisite amount to make the corner in the space Verstappen had given him. Which Hamilton felt wasn't enough. And he would be wrong. His move was ambitious and he wasn't going to make that move stick unless Max yielded, but why would Max yield to a corner that he will...

I don't know whether the stewards indeed have the option to make a distinction between predominantly and totally, but being 100% at fault is also predominantly I would say. Also, the stewards didn't explain whether they laid any responsibility for the accident with Verstappen. I think that regardin...

ChainBear has done his analysis of the incident, which as well as doing a thorough analysis and citing the rules and regulation, probably does just as good a job of explaining why there is such a split in opinion on the incident (after stripping away all the partisan people) enVOLoPzfrE Good video,...

Don't you get me started!

I hope the FIA will never again show such spinelessness as they did in those two cases. That was shameful, and the cockiness we see today is still a result of their inaction then.

Couldn't resist!

According to Brundle: "I am told by Red Bull there is data to prove Lewis was significantly faster into Copse than at any other time and he would not have made the corner without running wide, and inevitably contacting Max." https://www.skysports.com/f1/news/24096/12359579/martin-brundle-analysing-a...

That's why I view it as a racing incident. Max was judging the space based on his own line - but Hamilton's natural line was wider, and Hamilton's understeer occurred because Max took this line - but could have anticipated this and angled his car accordingly. The more I look at the incident, the mo...

I don't think anyone expects an apology from Horner or Marko. Everyone knows the sort of people they are. But once brandishing someone a 'dirty driver' you can't use the excuse of in the heat of the moment after the moment has passed. You either stick with what you said it don't. But if you're stic...

Seems odd to expect an apology from a man who said causing a high speed accident that necessitated a trip to hospital could result in bad consequences but not expect an apology from the guy who (according to the sports authorities) caused the high speed accident.

The thing about heat of the moment comments is that you get to retract them later on when no longer heat of the moment. Red Bull have doubled down on them by hiring a lawyer. Sure, but Horner didn't actually say anything extreme. The only thing wrong really is the bollocks about Hamilton "hanging a...

Is it so unreasonable to think that senior figures in the sport (like Horner and Marko) throwing around some pretty extreme language and accusations could trigger worse abuse as a follow up? As a reminder, Horner/Marko's language included calling Lewis "amateur", "desperate", "dangerous", "disrespe...

In this morning's (UK) news Horner is being publically criticised by Lord Hain for his comments, which according to Hain, were responsible for triggering a ‘torrent of racist abuse’. Nonsense Lord Hain; racists don't need an excuse for their idiocy, nor a trigger. Yep, I'm sure all all of us realis...

Joe Saward's take: The key question beyond all the yapping and griping is whether Max will do the same again if the circumstances occur, or whether he will have learned that Lewis is not going to be shoved out of the way. A line was drawn in the sand, if you like… If Max does not take that onboard,...

The irony being is that Mick has now driven this car almost as far as his old man ever did. Not true though. That was the race, he did drive it in FPs and Quali Well in my defence I did say "almost" & I was only making a bit of a wry point that Michael didn't really spend more than a couple of hour...

I'd be careful though. KV also initially said Alonso and every other current driver blamed Hamilton. But is yet to show any evidence of that. Or that Hamilton took that corner faster than he did the rest of the entire race. It's farcical lies at this point in time. Though I would add again Alonso p...

I think he defended the inside twice, he moved to defend, then increaed his right steering angle again before going back to the outside. I guess that isnt classed as two movements? Agree he can go anyway in the other direction as per your comment. Ive watched the replay w number of times and the an...
