They were in a tough spot. I think if the roles were reversed Red Bull would have done what Mercedes did. The stewards decision was an interesting one, but as someone who isn’t a die hard fan of max or Lewis I’m glad they went this route instead of having the race end under a safety car or restarting the race without getting the lapped cars out of the way (which would have been just as unprecedented as the decision that was made). Nonetheless, it’s impossible not to feel gutted for Lewis.

The only other logical outcome would have been that this race was discarded because you can not let Max for a mistake the stewards make (overtaking under safety car was already off the table a while ago), which would also have resulted in Max being World champion.
I am very glad that a car with a Mercedes engine was the reason for this safety car situation though…

Hamilton complaining the safety car wasn't giving its all in the straights had me in tears…
because he expects a road going Aston Martin to be as quick as an F1 car..

Is that really so unreasonable ?

Well, in his defence, Max has been bitching about exactly the same thing all season…..

This sums up pretty well much how I feel about F1 and the FIA at the moment…..

The good thing about decision making is that it has a rule of thumb and that is that you end up where you belong after a season of whatever it is you do.
No one in the world can say that this championship is stolen because the winner is on top of pretty much every statistic from this year one could consider. And that it was done in a car that wasn’t the fastest one driven by a 24yr old should lead to nothing but appreciation.
As far as rules concern I think the sport would benefit if there would be a fixed team of stewards who do their job throughout the season and that it is transparant who they are and why they made it to the team.
I realize that decision making can be harsh and can feel unjust. For example at Silverstone we could have lost a youngster by a mistake of his opponent and he got away with a 10sec penalty which of course was no penalty at all…

Can anyone help me… Need a stream for this... Not live as I wanna watch from the start... My brother's recording it but his boy's acting out and he's gonna come watch here...
Please PM me if you have a decent source!..
not sure about replay streams unless you have playback on a pay-tv app that might be geographically locked. but the highlights will be on YouTube..

@Giles that works for me. Ferrari are back
also as a random fun fact. the use of number 1 is cursed. the last time a driver used the number 1 on their car was Vettel in 2014 after he won 4 titles with red bull. he did not win a single race that season..
he also retired the first race of that season

Mindblowing spectacle!! Great to see how the Ferrari and RB drivers interact. Being a dutchie I could have appreciated a victory for Leclerc. What a season, yet again, this promises to be. I think in a few races Mercedes will get their car up to speed and then we have three teams in the mix!
