F1 2021 Season

Isn't that with all drivers though? Can't remember Hamilton being in the wrong his whole career as well.

I'm not sure about that, Hamilton has apologised before for incidents (Rosberg crash in Spain for example), and has grown up a lot from the diva he used to be.

If Max raced under the same team principles that Lewis did, he'd have been forced to grow up by now (or have been benched), but he's in an atmosphere that encourages his more spoiled behaviours, mainly because Horner is the worst of the lot in the paddock!
 
I really hope any penalty doesn't affect the next race as this is so exciting.

Be great if they are both on the front row at the next race.
 
This one incident is being targeted post race but they are forgetting, Max did two very questionable moves into T1 as well. Also let Hamilton by later on and immediately raced it back which was ridiculous.

This one will run all week, all the spice.
 
All the Hamilton fans running scared in here desperate for the showdown to be decided by a penalty before it even starts. :lol:

He was correctly penalized for those 2 T1 incidents though. Once was the giving back the position under red flag before the restart, and then them whole give back position / 5-second penalty for the second one.
 
Cheating, cheating, cheating dirty bastard. Max fycking verstappen you fecking dirty cheating cnut.

Edit: I'm on lap38
 
Having seen the F2 races, I expected there to be a crash or two, but nothing like that.

Honestly, I think Max would struggle to win on those tyres in the end, but he gave the position back twice for the same incident, and still got a 5-second penalty.
Confused about that one. Was the penalty for something else?

Feel like Hamilton had more than enough time and space to react to Max slowing down to let him pass, but then it's difficult to tell how much a car is slowing down from tv images. If he was brake-testing, then it's dirty, but it didn't look like he slowed down that violently. He did seem to move at the end when Lewis was going to the side though. Either Mercedes or the FIA were too slow with the radio messages too. Lewis finding that much pace with a broken end plate is pretty crazy.

Max were a bit reckless in some of the corners, Lewis were wrong to force Max wide after he let him past for like the third time in the race.
Feel like both parties can be understandably aggrieved about events.

Perez and Leclerc crash was down to racing incident. Leclerc had nowhere to go, Perez didn't have much space on the right iirc. Mazepin and Russell crash could've ended up being a lot worse, thankfully seems everyone is okay.

Vettel kept getting hit by everyone.

What a mess.

That inside move from Verstappen when they were three wide into turn 1 was beautiful though.
Excellent post in a very emotional thread.
 
As much as I want Max to win it, Hamilton has got this. Car is so much better these last few races. Exciting season though.

A few races ago everyone was declaring the race to be over. Hamilton and Merc have battered Max and RB since Mexico.
 
It’s such a shame for the sport that Max is like this.

So much talent and he just ruins it with his attitude.

This last race its going to feel like the winner will be whoever survives the inevitable accident rather than who is the best driver.
 
This dude's already got it in his mind to tactically end the race for himself Lewis next week.... "yeah equal......except my advantage on race wins" :lol:

Lewis is gonna GOAT his way to a safe and secure win from the front, expect him to smash it all weekend, he ain't chasing him.

Correct but he isn’t learning is he?
 
Getting high and mighty over Max's attitude. At his age just look at Lewis or Michael. Same story. Just competitiveness.
 
Horner is such a dick! Saying first sector is driver skills based and straights are car performance. What a twat!
 
Horner on that Max-Lewis incident
The Red Bull team principal says this to Sky F1:
"I think we feel hard done by with the 5-second penalty and in the incident where Lewis has driven up the back of Max, they'll go and explain in front of the stewards, but Max was trying to give the place up."
Yeah ok Horner !

Horner claiming Lewis was playing games going for DRS activation line.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it was Max who decided to try and brake to give the place back and use the DRS activation line to gain an advantage despite him being at fault.
