Of course not. I wouldn't expect them to.

But Toto will do it anyway just to prove a point.

Toto needs to be quiet and give Lewis a car to race with from the start of the season. Just get revenge next year. The entire world saw this farce for what it is. Even Max fans are laughing at the craziness.

The dudes who came in here congratulating Lewis for winning the title 10 laps before the race ended jinxed this shyt

Lewis gonna stomp through '22 .... watch.

Just more fuel for next year. Should I even congratulate Max?

Fan of the sport before Lewis came but I think I'm done once he retires

F1 this year has been the racing version of Whose Line is it Anyway this year. The rules are made up and the points don't matter.

Yup

It not about the safety car, it's about the rules. The back markers unlap or they don't. Some back markers had already unlapped, and Masi decided to let the race start. It's unacceptable and tainted.

it was foolish and unfair.. but not surprising because they are always going to lean into wanting a race to be finished on green in that situation than under caution.

Race finishes under caution then it'll be claimed that we never got to see how Lewis tyres would have played out etc..

He deserves his credit for putting the race stewards in positions the muddy the waters.

 

[KamikazePilot]

Lol what does that do? Who fights the case in this case? Can it actually be disputed?

They did not follow proper safety car protocol allowing all backmarkers to unlap themselves than waiting a lap for them to create distance. Under this we would have finished under safety car. Only the 5 between max and Lewis were permitted to overtake this is in clear violation of the rules. This will be decided in court.

Lol this is such an obvious farce it would actually be funny if I wasn't a fan of Hamilton.

 

[Lootha VanDraws]

He's right. But people (Max fans) are going to say he's kissing ass since he's going to Merc next year...

Yes, but it finishes within the rules. As I said, I have no issue if the race restarted and Lewis was overtaken within the rules. Either make it clear that lapped cars cannot unlap, or allow them all to unlap. Masi played god. He should lose his job.

I feel sick looking at this smug b*stard Horner

Listen to him giving these fake big ups to Lewis

 

[Clapsteel O'Neal]

bullshyt. Hamilton would have got fresher tyres if he knew it would have been a face off and lapped cars could go ahead of the safety car. he had no chance in that final lap

They would've finished the race under safety cars Max was first
