Jim McLean's Ghost Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Hamilton has to give him room on the inside. Verstappen was side by side and Hamilton closed him out. I'm not a fan of the rules of having to give space, encourages careless driving imo, but under those rules clearly Hamilton fucked it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Hard to say who was at fault tbh as neither of them were ever backing out. The halo is the real winner. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 There was just no room for Verstappen at the second part of the chicane. Hit those silly sausage kerb that launched him. Halo did the job - that could have killed Hamilton a few years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Racing incident that was Hamilton's fault. You can't take that line through that corner when you're side by side with another car. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either could have backed out and neither did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I’d hope the stewards take into consideration the competitiveness between the drivers, both would of backed out if it was another driver IMO and neither did anything particularly bad. Grid penalties etc would take away from the the spectacle of the sport. Closest contest we’ve had in years, let them go head to head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afc_36_0 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Class from mclaren, on this occasion i think it was more max’s fault, lewis had the inside line. I think to become a champion max needs to learn when to fight and when to back out of it. A similar incident to turn 1 in imola when hamilton went across the kerb to avoid contact with max 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A similar incident to turn 1 in imola when hamilton went across the kerb to avoid contact with max I think that is the right conclusion. Hamilton was first into the corner and should be able to take any line he chooses but that isn't the rules. Max can throw his car down the outside and as long as he gets alongside Hamilton he has to be given space on the track coming out the chicane 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarto Mutiny Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Pleased for Danny Ric and McLarenAbsolutely. Great to see. Delighted for both drivers. Lando's day will come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Yep, really good for McLaren and Ricciardo who really has struggled to get on top of Lando. Felt Hamilton v Verstappen was clumsy. Think Verstappen had to go for that, but it was a closing gap and nobody was backing out. Might have been better without the sausage kerb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggyness Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 This will be verstappens fault shortly according to crofty and co Very clearly a racing incident with no one party more to blame than the other. However, using the Horner's argument from Silverstone, at no point was Max ahead there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 That penalty is absolute nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Gary Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Take out your opponent only at entirely your own fault. 10 seconds. Racing incident that takes out both drivers. 3 place grid penalty for the driver less at fault. Tremendous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
