I mean penalising for that would be a bit of a joke to be honest. But the breach of protocol for the safety car needs to be addressed. Even if not to change this result, Masi must be removed and application of rules must be followed and not just “want to go racing” and for the spectacle.

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.

I just want to congratulate Mercedes for winning the constructors championship.
Thats the big prize, the team prize.
Imagine finishing second in the league but celebrating winning POTY more

He probably cut & paste that after every race.
They would LOVE it
Bigger question is how this guy can be a Verstappen fanboy, when Verstappen has proven to be one of the most awful sportsmen I’ve ever seen in my life, and his coded racist shit he’s done towards Hamilton this season is absolutely disgusting. He’s a complete piece of shit and I can’t fathom how anyone supports him.
yeah, it’s fecked either way. just a shit way to end the whole season. i’m totally pissed off and feel like i’ve wasted countless hours following this shit.
I mean is there any real shock that certain posters that like Max aren't gracious winners?
Eh?
I mean that's the fair point by Rosberg. Masi could have let them race with those lapped cars between them, as is in the rules. Or you let all of the cars unlap themselves. So for them to just let only the cars in between Max and Lewis unlap themselves makes no sense at all.
Oof, racist even, maybe you need to calm down a bit.
Yep. The FIA will not overule their own decision.
Both are levels above in these cars. Will be very interesting to see how next season goes with new regs. Hopefully that prat Masi is out too.
Just put him on ignore, he's been on a wind up all year in this thread, he's rabidly anti Hamilton and is easily the most childish person in the thread.
You'll feel much better just ignoring him, you won't get any sensible discussion.
Uttertly embarrassing. People should be held accountable for such ridiculous accusations.
yep. that’s the point for me. it’s how it’s been contrived to get max a chance regardless of the rules.
Not seen you spamming a dozen smileys in every post so far today pal, you okay?
Worried you might have grown up overnight.
Why would it?
It feels like they've taken a stance this season to let as much play out on the track as possible because it appeals to fans.
The trouble with that is it can benefit some drivers over others. If you have rules, stick to them, everyone knows where they stand.
What racism is that?
Totally agree with all that, it’s not fixed for a particular team, just fixed for the drama. To create headlines, to get the quick views, to sell their docu series.
There’s always been drama but I just find it a shame it’s gone this way so blatantly. That ending was ridiculous today no matter who you’re a fan of. It wasn’t even racing, it was so lobsided with one driver having a clear advantage over the other.
like I’ve said previously I’ve never been a massive Lewis fan anyway but that ending made me sick.
Thanks for proving my point, "deserves it less", still means he would deserve it. Why should a decision not made by Max, change the opinion of whether or not he deserves it?
And jesus the state of this comment: "Norris has driven brilliantly this season, he's deserving of the title given how well he's done in an inferior car." That is not at all the point.
Some of you really need to come back tomorrow, saying Max doesn't deserve it is ridiculous. I'm saying this as a Hamilton fan through and through.
Right, Hamilton is a baby and Max 'I push drives out of the track if they try to overtake me' Verstappen is a paragon of sportmanship? Get over yourself.
Lewis with fresh tyres on the last lap leads to Max causing a crash I'm sure.
Do you guys think George Russell will challenge for the title straight away ? Because that could make next year really, really more intense if that's even possible.
All perfectly understandable and correct.
And when Masi is removed for making the rules up on the hoof, we have just the job for him. UK Prime Minister.
Yes he is not British, but don't let that stand in the way of a wonderful career.
that was the post season controversy i could sign up for with protests and counter protests. this is just shit.
Probably
Yep. Whoever won that championship would've deserved it.
If they have done it all season then they are not going to change the effect for one race
Quite possible.
They hung Hamilton out to dry there. Dispicable.
If you want it to be a spectacle then let them fecking both pit.

Mercedes were the ones that sent in the protest. Both drivers have been summoned for alleged breaches
One for 48.8, and Max was indeed in front of Lewis by a few inches, prior to the restart, but not sure it'd be enough to warrant an 'overtake'.
48.8 said:
and one for 48.12, unsurprisingly. Which was also posted earlier in this thread.
48.12 said:
Doubt it, he will be a no2 for Lewis and I won’t have any issues with it considering how many years he has ahead of him
Horner "let them race, one last lap"
Absolute joke of a comment. Yeah let them race but then do it fair then. Both on fresh tires.
I'm honestly interested in hearing Max fans opinion on that comment from Horner there. And this has nothing to do with the result or the championship, it's a straight forward question:
Do you think that was a fair "let them race" last lap showdown?

And lets not forget his wife beating dad.
Very well said.
He will hit the ground running I'm certain. I don't think he's likely to be quite as nice as Hamilton is in wheel to wheel battle either, he's got a point to prove etc. We need Leclerc competitive against Max too, no quarter given.
Yeah I mean I have a healthy dislike of Verstappen, I think he's spoiled, dangerous, and treated unfairly leniently compared to everyone else, but the racism accusation just doesn't land.
It's bizarre, there's more than enough to dislike about him without making stuff like that up.
hey! it was just aggressive marriaging.
Yeah and where there's interpretation, I get that.
When the rules say what to do in these circumstances, it feels contrived because they don't want the championship to end under a flag/vsc.
