Yep. I side with Damon Hill. Racing incident for me but he knew the stewards would give a penalty.

LeClerc is actually looking comfortable in the lead.
He didnt do it on purpose, at least I dont think he did
I really wouldn't. I just want to see exciting racing.
he was heard screaming “banzai verstappen” over team radio before steering directly into him.
Shocking decision by FIA
Protect Max at all costs it seems, both drivers were aggressive and as Otmar said if that’s not a racing incident what is ?
I’m 100% convinced if it was Hamilton who crashed Verstappen is not getting punished

Hamilton will save his tyres and go as long as possible to not get held up in traffic or go as fast as possible and win on pure pace.
Norris has a chance of a podium if Bottas doesn’t get a move on.

A well deserved penalty. But without a Red Bull anywhere near the front, and Bottas being shit - id be more than a little surprised if anyone finishes within 10 seconds of the Merc
"Causing the accident" is over the top, you can give him some fault but putting it all on him is too much, it's 2 drivers both being too aggressive in my book.
Jos comfirmed Max is ok .
I'm laughing because you called him a dirty rat. You're also dangerously delusional if you think it was deliberate. Seek help.
So if they all pit now and Lewis took an extra 10, he’d come out about 7th.
You’d back him to get on the podium from there with 44 laps left. And that situation will only improve for him. He’ll come out about 5th after the penalty I suspect

Racing is allowed, deliberately taking out your competitor and injuring him is not. But I guess some bloke on the internet knows this better than the FIA stewards and most non-biased commentators in the F1-world.
Lewis will finish 2nd at worst here.
If you have the racing line then its always the other persons fault if they are off the racing line.
Has Brundle been on the sauce?
None of them said it was deliberate
Suspended for a race.
Clown.
Clown.
Dr Helmet Marko wants lewis suspended for a race. What an idiot.
Non biased commentators like Brundle and Karun that thought it was a racing incident too. You're delusional.
yep, hamilton is so good that he knew at 200mph exactly how hard and exactly where to hit verstappen to ensure max crashed out but his car was fine. we may as well stop f1 with someone that brilliant on the track.
I don't think it's clear that he had it, both drivers "could" have pulled out, but I disagree that either "should".
Red bull are pathetic.
That's barely a slap on the wrist for Lewis. Takes out the championship leader and gets a soft penalty.
Should be a stop and go at very least, FIA sat on the fence here.

He’s been reading this thread
I think lewis will win baring car issues or another racing incident. He's managing the tyres at mo.
Totally agree. The amount of dodgy manoeuvres Max gets away with combined with the rule change to favour Red Bull and slow down Mercefes this season.
It seems obvious who the FIA want to win this year.
Why would he do it on purpose, surely there'd be a risk in damaging his own car and obvious health risks. I know your not but anyone claim it was needs word with themselves.
Get a grip.If Hamilton “took out his opponent” the FIA wouldn’t just be giving a 10 second penalty. So let’s not pretend the FIA’s penalty decision in any way validates your brain dead opinion.
The main men didn't...
Which non biased commentators did you have in mind? The stewards have been a disgrace for years.
Yeah, it's quite lenient considering the circumstances. Should still get on the podium from here because that car is an animal. But yeah, does seem like they sat on the fence slightly.
James Peril = Pierre Wache. Makes all the sense now.
!!!
eh? lewis backs out at the last moment as he sees max turning in. You just ignore them being alongside 1 second before?
some of you guys I swear
They didn’t touch when they were side by side though so why is that relevant? From what I can gather most experts are arguing that the cause of the crash is that neither driver backed out, yet you’re arguing that’s exactly what Lewis did.
