I think think Hamilton ran to Albon as soon as he parked up to apologise and then admitted liability publicly which is asking for a penalty but that said I thought Albon left the door wide open so it is technically a racing incident with no further action?
I can see why he’s waiting on on getting confirmation from Toto as to his commitment to the team before renewing his own contract.

The Ferraris seemed very fragile, Seb is still being a cunt and not admitting making a mistake.

Yeah, Vettel claiming Charles left him no room, when he clearly moved left into Leclerc. Leclerc’s response was far more mature.

I like Hamilton but I so want him to be penalised for that. Not because he deserves it or anything I just want McLaren to get a trophy, even if they’ve been denied the podium ceremony

I think think Sainz is one of the chaps being investigated for using using DDRS under yellows. Kimi may get the podium!

Yes it’s confirmed now but they won’t show the results as so many behind him used DRS under yellows :lol:

I quite enjoyed that. Vettel is a 🔔end and blames other people as usual.

Would’ve been good to see Sainz actually on the podium.

Sadly piss poor stewarding has denied Carlos from participating in his first podium and denied us from seeing the celebrations.

If a bunch of former professional racing drivers can’t make up their minds after watching a few replays within minutes should they really be judging...

They couldn't not give him the penalty after penalising Ricciardo for almost exactly the same move earlier. I called it before Albon had rejoined the race. I should be a fucking judge.

So Vettel didn’t even get penalty points for pulling that shit?!

The FIA wrote: The Stewards reviewed video evidence and heard from the driver of car 5 (Sebastian Vettel), the driver of car 16 (Charles Leclerc) and the team representative .
The Stewards determined that both drivers had the opportunity avoid or mitigate the incident and therefore that neither driver is predominantly at fault. Therefore the Stewards take no further action.

Utter bollocks. Surely that argument could be used to let drivers off in almost every accident apart from a Kyvat torpedo attack.

I suspect Ferrari’s hand in that outcome. Binotto was being interviewed on Sky saying they both had to take responsibility.

It's another Vettel fuck up, he's just a magnet for that sort of shit.

If I was Vettel, I'd retire. He's a four-time world champion, he's not got much to prove.

Except if he goes now, he'll be seen as having lost the edge.

And if he stays and ends up as Leclerc’s bitch what will that make him?
