Re: Factors of Ranking Verstappen

I struggle to even label Vaerstappen as a racing driver at all. You cannot race with him, it's crash or jump out of the way. He is an amazing hot lapper and a racing thug.

Re: The Official Sir Lewis Hamilton thread

So here's a stat that just occurred to me. Lewis has now won and lost a championship on the final lap of the final race. I wouldn't imagine anybody else has done that.

Re: 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Race Thread

Why didn't Lewis cover the inside line? He must've (or at least should've) known Max will make a lunge on the inside if he's anywhere remotely near. That's his thing. Had he forced Max to make a move on the outside he could've squeezed him off track and there's no way they would have let him keep t...

Re: Abu Dhabi 2021 - How has it left you feeling?

For me, it's left me considering whether I will bother next year. I'm really down about it. If Max had won through racing, or through some luck befalling Hamilton then I'd have accepted it - those things are part of racing. But ignoring rules on the fly in order to leave a 'grandstand finish' (whic...

Lewis deserved it in this race. Max deserved it over the whole season. If the race had ended with the SC it would've been so anti-climatic for such a great season.
2012 ended behind the safety car. No one thinks any less of that because of the SC finish.

So had all cars been let through would everyone be OK with that?
Read the rules, let all lapped cars through (not just the ones that happen to be in front of MV) and then safety car in next lap. Massi only let 4 lapped cars through and the safety car came in on the same lap.

48.12 of the sporting regs: Unless the clerk of the course considers the presence of the safety car is still necessary, once the last lapped car has passed the leader the safety car will return to the pits at the end of the following lap. So it should have been a safety car finish. There we go, cle...

this is a coincidence, but if people don't understand the reason for red flag, then they don't take safety seriously enough.

Stewart has always played down Hamilton's acheivments, so nothing new here really. I get the feeling there is something personal in it. I've seen Stewart say a couple of times that Hamilton has never come to him for advice, and I think this has irked Stewart somewhat.
