Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
I've never seen such a disgraceful ending to a grand prix ever.

Normally ALL lapped cars would be allowed to overtake the safety car before the race was restarted. Why not in this case. It gave Verstappen the Championship on a plate.

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
Haven't watched it in years, since it all started to get rather 'silly', seems I made the right decision

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
Sorry but what l have seen ain't right as the sport becomes a complete farce when that is allowed to happen.

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
FIA finds FIA not guilty.
This is going to get nasty. CAS proceedings to follow I imagine. I can't find a scenario in which Masi doesn't resign or is dismissed.

A shameful farcical day for the sport.

A true gentleman & sportsman.

Firstly congratulations to Max and to his team. I think we did an amazing job this year,” said Hamilton.
“My team, everyone back at the factory, have worked so hard this whole year, it's been the most difficult of seasons.
“ I'm so proud of them and I'm so grateful to be a part of the journey with them.

No, "ifs", no "buts"…

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
I'm done with F1.
Mercedes have said they are taking it further.
Red Bull have said if they take away the title from Max then they would consider their future in F1, Well I say bye, you are not bigger than F1, F1 doesn't need you.
In the last two GP's I melted 4 swear boxes.
So next season I'll find something else to do.

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
As much as i hate how Redbull, Horner, Max and Marko for how they have behaved this season and Lewis obviously would have won if it wasn't the dodgy FIA decision.
The decision wont get over turned so i hope Mercedes don't take it any further, but i want to see Mercedes really stick it to the FIA in their statement, Masi to go and a huge shake up at the FIA so this can't happen again.

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
Arise, Sir Lewis Hamilton.
Surprised Verstappen wasn't allowed to come through and steal it…

Re: F1 2021 Season Thread
Mercedes will not appeal the result, I think this is the best option as I believe the majority know it was an FIA screw up and in my opinion heads should roll at the FIA.
Quote:
Their move follows a decision by governing body the FIA to conduct a "detailed analysis" of the end of the race and an admission it was "tarnishing" Formula 1's image.
Mercedes said they "welcomed" the move and would "hold the FIA accountable".
