Re: Michael Masi. 1 Year on.
^ Moreover, done in a way that was contrary to the way the rules are written/had ever been interpreted before. Merc made their decision not to pit for fresh tyres based on those rules.

Re: Michael Masi. 1 Year on.
48 pages... bloody nora. So much back and forth for something so clear cut.
Does anyone genuinely believe that what happened was right, according to the rules? Really? Baffling.

Re: Replacement Official Driver of the Day poll for Mexico 2023 (please revote)
Lewis. Got everything possible from the race, pulled off some beautiful overtakes and managed the final stint brilliantly. Lando was also great in the race and probably extracted the maximum as well but shouldn't have had to work so hard for it if qualifying and the red flag restart had been better.

It's been a year and I'm still not mentally ready for this one. AD21 still hurts. I'm unendingly impressed with how Lewis held his head high after that, and how he's moved past it, especially with the car being so rubbish this year. Oh well, roll on 2023.

Re: Hamilton replacement
It would be awful if Hamilton left under these circumstances. Awful for Hamilton, awful for the sport. I wouldn't blame him for hanging up his helmet though.
If he were to go, I'd think they'd want Ricciardo. He's got good experience and would gel well with Russell.

Eh, not really double standards. I think they'd both behave/feel the same way. I can't imagine Hamilton trying to hand back a title even if he won it under the same circumstances the Max did. Again, just my opinion.

Re: Should merc take the case to court
Yes, they should. I don't think they should seek to overturn the result as such - Hamilton would never want his 8th WDC to be won in that manner and it would be cruel to Max, who didn't do anything to cause this mess. But for the intergrity of the sport, Merc should take it as far as they can.
