Hamilton Spoiler!

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by Arquebus, Nov 6, 2020.

  1. Sergio Perez was (for me) an excellent wing-man today, and arguably had an influence on today's result.

  2. The outcome of the championship wasn't down to who was the best driver or who had the best car, it was decided by a back marker crashing and that for me is why I stopped watching it years ago.
     
  3. Shitty ending.

  4. F1 in 3 words, in order of priority.

    1. Rules
    2. Regulations
    And a very poor 3rd

    3. Racing.


    Utter nonsense from start to end.

  5. Ahem, for the purpose of winding up the LH fanboys on here, it WAS a masterclass by Max. Slower car and he still smoked him. Gold!! :D

  6. Shitty ending? It was fucking brilliant!!

  7. Anyone think that the FIA will reverse their decision and award the WDC to Lewis? Toto has lodged two protests.

    There's always some luck in these closely fought contests between two evenly matched people. Today Max ended up getting favoured -though it didn't look like that at the beginning did it...

    Well done Max WDC 2021 and many more to come.

  8. It was exciting for sure. For your clarity, I am no way a Hamilton fan. Nor a Verstsppen one. I am Not an F1 fan. Can’t be when race results are decided by the stewards hence the nonsense. Good theatre (today) but not good sport. Funny watching them argue though.

  9. You don’t think that in a final showdown winner takes all race, a few of us wouldn’t be talking about the race in a thread entitled Hamilton? Err OK, well like you say it’s opinions, but I think you might be in a minority there Chris.
     
  10. I switched the channel over before he crossed the finishing line, for me Lewis and Mercedes had the better package this weekend & were robbed of their victory.

    No F1 for me next year.!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. What I don’t understand is how come that Max bloke got given the trophy? The one who decided the title was that bloke in the white (and blue?) car who crashed into the barrier a few laps before the end, doesn’t he get something for deciding the title?

    (just to be clear I really couldn’t give a shit, I’ve just had a lovely roast dinner washed down with a bottle of red and feel it might kick off so thought I’d wade in :laughing: I just don’t understand how those that are saying the best man won when 2 laps earlier his own team manager was saying that the Mercedes were a better team today and we can’t compete)
     
  16. Bye-eeeeee…. :D

    Dry yer eyes. Mercedes have brought in the big shot lawyers to overturn Max’s victory…. :astonished:

  17. Doesn’t that pretty much sum up F1 when teams arrive for the weekend with a legal team?
     
    • Agree Agree x 1
  18. Yep. Apparently Mercedes rocked up in the UAE with QC’s just in case they lost. Red Bull have no legal representation as they stated at the hearing (going on now) they are a racing team. It’s all getting a bit distasteful. They reckon Mercedes are threatening to pull out if they don’t get their way… Unbelievable if true…

  20. No tears from me on this one, but it just shows what a shit feast that race result was with the safety car out for such a long period.
    Lewis grafted for that win for fifty odd laps, so the wrong man came out on top today.IMO
