Mercedes were right to highlight this, as it’s the reason why Lewis was judged as “predominantly” to blame and not “wholly” to blame. This book dips into his personal records and is spiced throughout with treasures to delight and fascinate. These are supplemented by period comments and many of his anecdotes. Moss has a fund of stories and is refreshingly non-PC! and at the very last moment Albon turns in taking the apex. andrewf1 (@andrewf1) 19th July 2021, 15:49.

At the end of the day the penalty had no effect other than making Lewis’ drive look a bit more spectacular. @esploratore1 Hamilton simply held his line and Verstappen could have finished (and probably won) the race had he not cut it so close. 149 150. of 175. Hamilton survived the impact and was able to replace a damaged wheel rim under the red flag, while Verstappen was brought . Masi said he has not concerned about team principals speaking to stewards in person during a race, pointing out it happened at the Italian Grand Prix last year when Hamilton queried a penalty during a red flag period.

This was always going to happen this season because Max and Lewis are both hungry to win and the cars are pretty equal. @giles_richards. Giles Richards. It doesn’t help when Christian Horner is acting like a hysterical drama queen, because another driver dared to use the same driving tactics as his driver. Red Bull driver . Iâm glad to hear he is ok. He and another senior member of the Redbull team was clearly in contact with Massi and Stewards to influence their decision and asking for the biggest punishment. Masi said this himself, and also said he had no problem with it. As I said a couple of days ago, now my emotions are a little calmer and I can take a look at it a step removed, I now think it is a racing incident with pretty much equal blame on both drivers.

It was âa pretty impressive impact,â said Dr. Ian Roberts, Formula Oneâs medical rescue co-ordinator. You weren’t in the room nor reading their minds. Mercedes and Red Bull team members were constantly fighting their case to Michael Masi (The Race Director), which doesn't make much sense, cause he doesn't hand out any penalties. Two drivers at the top of their game determined not to concede. Also the drivers. And fair play to them, we have hardly heard from them lately. By. Although it was a rear/front touch, at the beginning of the incident the front axle of the Mercedes was forward of the centre plan of the Red Bull. So the stewards actually ruled more severe than the vast majority of the people who are “in the know” feel about it. Rate the 2021 British Grand Prix out of ten. I agree with a lot of what you say, but not all of it. Then he leaves the door wide open (to lure Hamilton in?) If they go knocking on the door to plead their case they should get turned away. Christian Horner should star in the movie “Armageddon 2” as news reporter who reports the fall/arrival of Armageddon. âI donât care what Lewis said. F1 Stewards: Who are they, what do they do & how are they chosen. Lewis was actually completely alongside MV, and then backed out of it as Verstappen tried to chop him off.

Christian could win an Oscar award for his role! I’ve raced on that circuit many times, and what Horner is saying is just BS. The way stewards work in F1 has evolved a great deal over the years, not least because of the technology involved in F1 nowadays. You obviously missed the explanation lewis gave about his dummy. David BR (@david-br) 19th July 2021, 16:12, “I assume this is spam. (There is also the mysterious “clunk” on Grosjean’s onboard audio that comes just before his oversteer that I still don’t think has ever been explained). âIt wasnât much of a penalty,â Horner said. Another steward is nominated by the race’s own national sporting authority, which also proposes the clerk of the course. this has nothing to do with social issues. If there had been no team orders, then it would have taken Lewis at least 3 more laps to legitimately overtake Bottas as we know the Merc is terrible in dirty air, which would have given Charles enough time to stay in 1st place. Rob (@realnigelmansell) 19th July 2021, 19:35, I just hope max takes to heart that he can completely miss an apex to wreck lewis and only get a 10 sec penalty, Michael (@freelittlebirds) 19th July 2021, 14:39, Wow autocorrect FIA = Fiancé!

Horner saying that Hamilton had “put a driver in hospital” is just not true – Max went to hospital to get checked out – he was not “put in hospital”.
