Good grief. Now the lapped car decision is again a clear benefit to Hamilton. These guys are a joke.

 

[Timmay]

 

[Timmay]

They had to make that decision. It was really the only thing to do. Im glad they changed their mind.

I think that even if that last lapped car decision was correct, it shows the horrible inconsistency that exists in the stewards and other decisions made all season. They certainly need to rethink some of this.

They need an independent group of stewards that attend all the races.

They need an independent group of stewards that attend all the races.

Exactly. And the rules need to be enforced consistently.

 

[Timmay]

Verstappen has been summoned to the stewards for being slightly ahead of Hamilton for a split second before falling back in line prior to last lap restart.

I would be surprised if they took the championship away, but….

Oh for eff sakes. Hamilton almost stopped.

And the farce continues

Mercedes also protesting race.

Mercedes also protesting race.

Yeah, two protests actually. One for the lapped car decision and the other for Verstappen “overtaking” during the safety car.

I think that’s a bit much they would protest the “overtake.” Pretty petty for sure as it played no role later on.

If Lewis had won under safety car, I sure his celebration would have been subdued.

I doubt it. A win is a win .

 

[Andrew C]

Stewards rejected the first claim about max overtaking Hamilton under safety car. Let’s see the next one.

 

[Timmay]

If Lewis had won under safety car, I sure his celebration would have been subdued.

I don’t know. He completely destroyed Verstappen’s car and sent him to the hospital at Silverstone and still acted like he won his 15th championship.

 

[Andrew C]

Second decision supposed to come in less than 10 minute. Why does below sound like bad news for Red Bull?

 

[Andrew C]

 

[Andrew C]

It’s official.

My sarcasm did not come through as expected.
