Why? Because Max is an over aggressive driver who weaves around dangerously. Also forces other drivers to backout or crash. I.e. with Raikonnen, Vettel, Hamilton. We've been over this in the thread many times.Yeah, and why? Because Max tried to will his inferior car into podiums while Hamilton was cruising in his mighty Mercedes up front. We all said Lewis would start making mistakes as soon as his car advantage went away, and thats exactly what has happened. Its easy being Mr.clean with a car thats 1 second faster per lap than the opposition and with an engine advantage allowing you to cruise through overtakes without a problem. Its far more difficult when you actually have to race someone as been proven this season.
Admittedly Verstappen has made some terrible rookie errors during his teen years, but Lewis was the crash guru himself back in the day 2010-11 aprox with Felipe Massa when Lewis once again did not have a superior car. The only time period where Lewis has been driving safe is when he has had the most dominant car in F1 history and faced only mediocre drivers in Vettel and an over the hill Raikkonen. Its just logic that more indicents happen when you have to push hard!
Whatever happened in the past does not change the fact that Lewis was in the wrong at Silverstone, and his fans try to deflect that by talking about what Max has done years ago.
Both Lewis and Max were in the wrong at the Silverstone incident. That's why the FIA ruled it was predominantly Lewis's fault and not solely his fault.
