F1 2021 Season

[sewey89]

What a shout

Wish I’d done £100

 

[Wilt]

feck Max , feck Horner feck Max fans
I have no problem Lewis being beaten , but not like that, it was just an UTTER FARCE.

 

[Rado_N]

Class interview from Lewis, credit to him.

 

[Dargonk]

To let them race.

I would think its either un-lap all, or nothing would be the rules. You can't just make things up as you go because you want to see two specific cars race each other.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

He won't be reactionary but nobody deserves to lose like that.

He's got 7, this isn't a disaster, go race something else Lewis, have some fun.

Something needs to be done about Massi and the FIA.

 

[Pexbo]

Already cancelled 100k hospitality at Silverstone that we have had for 20 years... bring on goodwood

You’re such a fecking meme

 

[The Firestarter]

Is this actually going to be allowed to stand? Feels like a really obvious error has been made here and logic should prevail?

No way it is changed, nobody will want to touch it for fear of even more controversy. It is over.

 

[KirkDuyt]

Very mature reaction from Lewis in the post race interview. Doubt Max would've shown the same sportsmanship.

 

[United Hobbit]

That was Liverpool levels of luck, the games where they are set to drop points and the goalkeeper throws the ball into the net for them in the last second

Very mature interview by Lewis. So close. Would he have guarded against Max if he'd pitted when Max pitted for the 2nd time?

 

[Leg-End]

The Hamilton's are absolute class acts.

 

[MTF]

Really feel for Hamilton. Not a huge fan of him, but he raced a flawless race. Merc tyre strategy was understandable as well. Pretty much got screwed over by FIA.

Agree.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Lewis is a class act.

 

[Judas]

I remember my first F1 race.

 

[rimaldo]

So you pick pure arrogance over pure arrogance.

Okie dokie

hamilton’s interview at the end is something max would be incapable of if the roles were reversed.

 

[The Firestarter]

You’re such a fecking meme

spot on

 

[El Zoido]

The convention is usually to let all the lapped cars pass and rejoin the back of the pack. Because the time taken to do that would have left the race finishing under SC, they made the call to not let lapped cars pass. However, this left backmarkers between Lewis and Max.

Then Red Bull have presumably had a whinge and Masi has then specifically let the backmarkers in Max's way past, and not all the others - effectively gifting the title to Max because of the tyre situations.

FIA wanted an exciting end, not a fair end.

 

[sewey89]

Stupid from Merc.
Insane from the FIA.
But great and opportunistic by Red Bull and great driving from Max. Well done to them

I hope Lewis gets his 8th though, as that’s been stolen from him (at no fault of RB may I add)

 

[stretford_oslo]

What a finish
Deserved champion.

Latifi driver of the day no question about it.

 

[Massive Spanner]

Hamilton stop being nice you prick.

 

[Judas]

Lewis is a class act.

He is. I'm baffled how disliked he is.

 

[mu4c_20le]

I remember my first F1 race.

Did it finish behind a safety car?

 

[Ixion]

Such a farcical way to end the race.

 

[Rado_N]

You’re such a fecking meme

 

[Berbaclass]

Doesn't look like it did.

I was assuming that he would pit

 

[elmo]

Can somebody explain in layman’s terms what the furore is?

Imagine if the ref ruled a goal offside only to allow it afterwards just because the striker cried and said it's unfair.

 

[gormless]

In terms of the FIA, never attribute to maliciousness what can be put down to incompetence.

Masi is totally out of his depth. There has been absolutely awful decisions both ways this year

 

[Mark_Barca]

Really? Merc has got so many bullshit decisions that helped them this season as well.

No point in discussing with the Hamilton fanboys on here, more biased than EPL ones. Probably the same people tbh.

 

[Mickeza]

First thing Lewis says is congratulations to Max. Max said feck all about Hamilton. Oh yeah - I forgot he can’t say Mercedes or Hamilton any more the entitled cnut.

 

[CloneMC16]

Fair play to Lewis. After that bullshit, he still shows class in front of the camera. I'd be absolutely raging in his shoes.

 

[Maestro14]

To those asking why Hamilton didn't pit, I think he would've been behind Verstappen if Max didn't pit. And the FIA could've gone the other way with their call at the end. Maybe the FIA wanted it to go racing to the end, but they've essentially chosen the world champion by making the calls they did.

 

[Zlatan 7]

No need to mate.
Not bothered Max has won, just the way it was decided at the end was a farce.

It’s just pandering to modern life and fans, people prefer drama over fairness

 

[pratyush_utd]

So you pick pure arrogance over pure arrogance.

Okie dokie

I pick a brilliant driver. As if Lewis isn’t arrogant prick.

 

[SirAnderson]

@Jerch @Massive Spanner @ArjenIsM3 @altodevil right now be like...

 

[Hephaestus]

But are lapped card usually allowed to overtaken the sc or not?

I heard firewoeks going of in the Street. Every body loved F1 now. Were such a silly country.

Most of the time, yes. But all lapped cars get let through, not just the ones between the top 2, as far as I'm aware that has never happened before. Had they let through all of them, they wouldn't have got far enough ahead of the safety car to restart the race so the final lap would have been behind the safety car which wouldn't do so Masi bent the rules to give Verstappen that chance. That's the issue.

 

[massi83]

Lewis Toto
By far the fastest car, a lot of luck and still fails. Almost as embarrassing as losing to Rosberg.

 

[Leg-End]

First thing Lewis says is congratulations to Max. Max said feck all about Hamilton.

Measure of the man. Look forward to more of it folks.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

He is. I'm baffled how disliked he is.

Well...

 

[SilentWitness]

Don’t know why people keep saying Hamilton is a prick, he’s matured loads. Maybe the same will happen with Verstappen one day but for now there is only one of them who is an utter bellend.

 

[Aint gota Kalou]

It's like being 4-0 up and someone shouts next goal wins.

 

[Gazautd18]

Done with F1
Absolute joke "sport"
