It will be really interesting what the fall out of Max/Hamilton will be. From a championship perspective, I'm hoping that Max gets a penalty. RB have the better car, so any penalty will help to keep the championship battle interesting for longer.

I don't think anybody said he tried to kill him. Damien Hill said he deliberately took him out and Jonny Herbert agreed with him and some on here agreed with that.
I don’t think it was on this forum I read it. Apologies. Tom van Persie did say he nearly killed him though which I wouldn’t class as decent discussion.
Interestingly Max was very angry about Lewis celebrating the win at Silverstone, he called out "disrespectful", despite Lewis asking if he was OK almost immediately. Surely he should have even harsher words for himself, given that he didn't even bother to ask that question after driving over Lewis' head...
Di Resta is off his rocker.
Max has 3/4 of his car off the track, why is he ignoring that? He says let them race but you can't just throw your car into something and try to force a gap open. This isn't DTM like he keeps trying to compare it to.
Herbert is absolutely bang on.
an observation and without the Halo it would be correct, so because of one comment , its not a decent discussion
The car did impact his head. If it wasn't for the halo he might have been killed.
Mate, you might as well just stop this bullshit. It’s transparent as feck, you’re simply just embarrassing yourself at this point. You prefer Max to Lewis. As do others in this thread. And as do others the other way around. It’s perfectly fine. There’s no need to fake objectivity.
Not watching now but Di Resta has always had a Hamilton complex so I tend to ignore most of what he says when he’s involved.
Probably because he was stood right next to Lewis' car watching him try to reverse out.
As accidents go Silverstone was a massive crash. This was an awkward low speed crash. Trying to equate the two is absurd.
You’re opinions are a joke.

But that’s not Verstappen killing Hamilton though is it?
How is it not? Doesn't say anything about intent, guilt or blame
You wouldn't class an accurate statement as decent discussion? His tyres made contact with Lewis' head, that isn't far away from doing serious damage.
Accept my opinion as fact or you're a fanboy
One a world champion, one a nobody
Maybe it’s a translation thing then. Anyway thank god for the Halo.
I am not normally a fan of Paul, but today he has been OK , to say he is a nobody is a tad harsh.
Rafa is that you?
You need to learn what a "fact" actually is, as in all of the ones you've presented you've made assumptions.
Still, it doesn't matter though. You're a spoiled child defending another spoiled child, throwing around insults that perfectly describe your own attitude.
There's simply nothing Max could do that you wouldn't defend.
Umm, he didn’t go backwards into a wall. Fact
That's fair, and yes it's been a godsend since it was introduced.
In racing maybe not, in the scheme of f1 he drove for force India for a few years. He’s got a bee in his bonnet imo
100%
Jesus this thread is like peak Messi vs Ronaldo thread in terms of pettiness and childish arguments.
Anyone who resorts to putting "fact." After their own personal opinions really needs to look at themselves and their analytical skills.
He went sideways into a tyre wall. Maybe your eyes are as bad as your opinions
Maybe you found the reason for the dodgy opinions
First 2 are assumptions. 3rd is incorrect.
If there is a hill you are dead in a ditch alongside it.
The whole Max just walking away thing wouldn’t even be a big deal if this wasn’t crying so hard after Silverstone. Makes him look like a complete idiot
Again with the projection. The only person embarrassing themselves here is you, you've been called out by multiple people for passing off your own opinions as facts.
Genuinely dude, you need to take a step back and look into why you're so personally invested in Max being infallible. It's one thing to support a driver, it's another to turn a blind eye or even defend their bad behaviour.
It's all a bit Liverpool-fans-defending-Suarez from you at the moment, can't wait for you to post pictures posing in a t-shirt with Max's face on.
As a casual F1 fan, why were people against the halo?
Took a look at Max's onboard, and I'm gonna say the same thing I said about Hamilton at Silverstone: I don't think from where he is to take the 2nd leg of the corner, at the speed he's at, that he's making the corner.
He maybe would've made it by braking mid corner and just generally driving a really terrible line that has him doing most of the car rotation way past where the apex is, but he's certainly not going to get it turned around soon enough to leave enough room for Hamilton to also stay on track whilst outside of him.

Because they're idiots
Edit: some cited it looked bad on the car, but the most ridiculous was probably from Max who said it took away danger from F1
No matter how much the two might not like each other (apparently), having your fly car inches from your opponents head after being to aggressive, only for the other driver to be saved by the halo from having his head knocked off, is not an awkward low speed crash, come on!!!Probably because he was stood right next to Lewis' car watching him try to reverse out.

The public want to see and hear Max do the right thing there, and in my opinion Max was at fault.
Before you reply by saying you're saying that as a Hamilton supporter, I lived in Holland for over 10 years and have a huge love for the country - so the opinions are not coming from a Hamilton fan but from an F1 fan
Your last paragraph won't make any difference, you're talking to a religious zealot. Max could have aimed a kick at Lewis and he'd find a way to justify it, and anybody disagreeing would be a "deluded fanboy".
We love you too!
Restricting visibility was the only viable one. The other stupid reason was that it took away from the shape of the cars.
