In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
If you run off the track then thats not the right thing clearly (both drivers have to give room) Lewis also backed out of the move on the corner that time too. As Jenson said LeClerc probably didnt want to get shunted (in other words didnt trust Hamilton)
max shows him to the inside by positioning himself on the outside (racing line) he clearly expected hamilton to back out, but he didn’t.
if he was smart he would have pushed him to the outside and held the inside of the corner forcing lewis wide.
it’s a racing incident, they both made errors.

Hamilton at fault, knew what he was doing, penalty not enough, hollow victory and a lot of other saltiness!
"I hope Lewis is proud of himself" and "hollow victory" among other things. Was embarrassing and below his station as a team leader really.
Max's car is that much faster, he could have given Lewis the ground and reeled him back in later in the race.
Likely that Lewis psyched him out by driving all over him on the first lap. If the roles are reversed, I suggest that's what Lewis would have done.

Championships have been won when a driver purposely took himself and his rival out of the race.
Besides, this move by Lewis has been done multiple times by Max himself, he's just lucky that the other drivers weren't being complete idiots and that they backed out to save themselves from crashing.
It was very embarrasing
HOLLOW VICTORY
Max will never yield to Lewis, they’re both racers fighting for the title, I won’t be surprised if we see this again.
I want to see the RBR reaction if it’s Max picking up the penalty this time, not sure if they will be calling for him to banned from the race.
Mate you embarrass yourself more and more every day in this thread. You're still pretending the Merc is faster this year? Give it a rest already.
Hopefully Red Bull get a heavy penalty and a race suspension for Max due to Horners derogatory comments
There wont be a response this is it for upgrades for almost all teams. Hungary is the last race before summer break. Then ever team switches focus to 2022 cars 100%. You can't afford not to otherwise it could takes years to catchup.
Looking at the races left, it will be max's first WDC and he deserves one (as does leclerc eventually).
They will tangle again no doubt.
I am a big lewis fan, but no issues with max. Horner on the other hand....
If positions were reversed would Max have backed out or do exactly what Hamilton would have done? Even the most ardent Verstappan fan boys know Max would have done exactly the same. Max is a do or die driver, other drivers Hamilton and Vettel had mentioned on multiple occasions in the past you have to race differently against him. Max was all over the place on that first lap.and he pushes everything past the limit for me. He weaves all over when Hamilton is behind trying to break the toe. Last few weeks others drivers started doing it and were warned. Hamilton took norris and leclerc on the same corner, so it shows you can do it. Obviously, if 2 drivers will not yield then this is going to happen.
Yes, as I'm sure Max would've done if it was his home Gran Prix.
No team should be allowed to do it. I hated it as well when I had passion to watch every race, prac and quali during Hakkinen and Schumacher era. Its no race if you are not allowed to race against your teammate.
All that proves is that Hamilton is a better driver than Bottas and in a car a second faster than Ferrari. What exactly were you trying to say when you pointed out why Bottas couldn't get past Leclerc. Isn't the answer simple - Bottas is not good enough to pass Leclerc even in a faster car. What has Hamilton got to do with it?
Yet Horner made a case to the race director that no racer would ever try to pass on that corner because it is impossible.
Lewis was up his side before the turn and Max still decided to cut. It wouldn’t have helped if Lewis drove the line as tight as possible. So blaming this on Lewis alone is bullshit.You see comments like this and you have to marvel at the power of fanboyism.
How is your view of that incident this badly distorted?
Agree, they won't. Max took out perez last year (who went on to win) no penalty which was clearer than this.
I assumed that's what he meant mate.
Your living in a alternative reality mate if you think the Mercedes is the fastest car on the grid.
Hamilton backed out vs LeClerc and was also tighter in the corner. Didnt stop LeClerc shitting himself though ha
Max has driven like Lewis did today his whole career.
Get off this forum if Englishman gets on your nerve that much and join a max fanclub forum where everyone will agree with you that Max is the greatest driver of all time and everyone else is just wrong.

I initially pointed out that Hamilton took out the only car which could have beaten him as the second Red Bull was way behind and obviously not as good as Hamilton. What was wrong in that statement? Mercs are way faster than Ferrari and that showed today in the closing stages. Leclerc was doing personal bests but still Hamilton was a second quicker pretty much the last 13-14 laps on slightly older tyres. That simply shows the advantage Mercs have on Ferrari.
If he had done this to Max and Red Bull of this season, then one could actually call it the brilliant drive that you claim it was.
If you deliberately push someone off the track you can expect to damage your own car and can't be sure that it is going to be race ending for the person you push. The idea that someone can use this as a race tactic is just crazy.
Will also escalate the rivalry to potential dangerous levels when he should be keeping everyone safe.
We all know the roles could've been reversed between Max and Lewis for today's crash, and might be in the future.
So British fans have no shame but to reply your going give Lewis a hostile welcome in Zandvoort?
Exactly.
Pretty much all the older drivers have experienced something similar from Max at some point in time.
Yeah I realise that now
Its still a brilliant drive
Yeah Max seems to get a pass for being overly aggressive, he's been treated with kid gloves by stewards most of his career, and it's basically forces drivers to back out and give him the advantage.
He was just as aggressive as Lewis for that entire first lap, as you say weaving all over the place, for me he's just as guilty for the contact.
Horner crossed the line in that interview. Pathetic behaviour.
I mean Max has never put his elbows out before has he.Horner : “I hope Lewis Hamilton is very happy with himself”
This is the most accurate description of the incident I have seen. I fear that was Horners inflammatory response Max will drive even more aggressively in the future. Could cause more damage.
Give it up ! you post English fans have no shame,them you post this, double standards, can't have it both ways.
You can't moan about fans doing something, then say, your going to do the same.
Lewis was ALWAYS going to be given a hard time at Zandvoort.
Horner trying to character assassinate Hamilton, embarrassing.
