Quote HistoryQuoted: Alot of the simps for Lewis are now trying to blame Horner and Redbull for inciting this "racism" towards lewis. And evidently the bulk of it was the Clown Emoji....so they are now saying the Clown Emoji is racist...... Of coarse, any attack on Lulu will been seen as racist. Complete and utter bullshit. |

Why don't you tell us of all your experience. Hence my comment. They are professional racing drivers, they're not paid to back off.

It's bad practice to do that on a slow hairpin. It's BS to do that on a 180mph corner. Hamilton intentionally took out his only opponent. On a corner like that, at those speeds, it wouldn't even be a stretch to say he was trying to take out is only opponent for the next 4 races by injuring him. |

I dislike Hamilton a lot, and it’s massive BS that he only got a slap on the wrist, but I don’t think he’s some kind of super genius that planned out exactly where and how hard to hit Max’s car so he’d go sliding off track with enough force to destroy the car and have a chance of putting Max out of action, and not damaging his own car to the extent that it couldn’t be fixed under the red flag. |

Don't know how much time you've spent behind the wheel of a racecar or as a serious competitor but I disagree with the part in bold, and the next sentence is almost laughable. Let me preface this by saying I am not a Lewis fan at all. I think he is a very talented driver but he is far from my guy. I'm a Ferrari guy thru and thru have been since I started watching F1 with my dad in the mid 90's as a kid with a Ferrari in the garage. He should have had a stiffer penalty and should have some penalty points on his license. Lewis made an aggressive move into a fast corner. He was not, in my opinion, on a good racing line and was clearly going to miss the apex. As Max was going toward the apex that was only going to get worse as more air was taken off of Lewis car. Lewis could have backed off going into the corner but at that corner, the car loaded like it was I think he might have had a pretty gnarly spin ending up like Max. The 8 corners leading up to the incident were what we all wanted to see. There was VERY tight racing, to the point of contact a few times if I remember correctly. Sometimes when you are racing that hard a couple of inches matter. I'm not convinced this is a situation where it was just a couple of inches, it was not a light contact at all, but when you get two very competitive guys racing that close for the lead that also are battling for the world championship...things like this are bound to happen. It never works out well for the guy on the outside. |

In motorcross we'd just call that stuffing someone in the berm. I did have friends I grew up with that raced dirt cars, sprints and super stocks, still different. The person on the inside is responsible to be a little more conservative. Hamilton pushed jt too hard and way over shot his apex. It was close racing up until then and I'm sure both drivers thought the other would back out. The 10 sec penalty is laughable. |

Hamilton's view is: I'm putting the car into this corner whether Max gives me room or not. Max is: I'm putting the car into this corner whether Ham is there or not. I don't think either one is an intentional punt but an intentional and deliberate decision to make a move to make a pass for the lead. He wouldn't be where he is now without sticking his nose in there many times over. The drivers that don't do that are those who will never be discussed since they will never be at that level...and that is speaking from first hand experience. |

Again, not a fan of Lewis at all but you are exactly right with the LeClerc reference. He looked in the mirror and you know what he saw? The guy that was going to do what it took to win. He's annoying on the radio, he gets preferential treatment from the team, Max also has that mindset, even back when he was "divebombing" back in his early days in F1. He was taking advantage of an opening he saw. Sometimes the gap was there and stayed there, sometimes it wasn't. It's the same thing that was the case with Ferrari back with Michael. They saw the red car in the mirror and knew what that if the window was cracked it may as well have been wide open. And it's that way across all disciplines. Dale in NASCAR. Sure, sometimes people got/get taken out. Everyone around him knew any opening or form of weakness was going to be taken advantage of. When the drivers stop trying to make passes like that is when I will not be interested in watching anymore. I don't care about the crashes at all, hate to see them. I like seeing the best of the best giving it everything. Sometimes they will end up like Senna - it's part of the sport they choose to compete in. I would have liked it better had Lewis been half a cars width further inside but I don't know if it would have changed anything. It may have been Max getting spun at the apex, or Max running wide maybe spinning maybe not. I think if those two were in the same position headed to Eau Rouge it would have ended the same way. We have two hyper competitive guys racing each other in cars that are sometime going to want to be in the same space. When one of them starts to let off to let the other thru, the championship chase may as well be over. Hopefully that is all semi-cohesive. I wrote it over a long period of time with several interruptions at the office. I just hate that I am defending Lewis so much.  |

Quote HistoryQuoted: If you look there's a trend with HAM punting people in corner....the 2 cases with Albon immediately come to mind. I think he intentionally punted him...I don't think he ment for it to be as bad as it was..... Max has had his share too over the years. He shoved Leclerc off track a couple of years ago, I think in Austria? And for years Max had quite the reputation, before he finally settled down. Leclerc had his moments too with diving down the inside and causing wrecks (Vettel in Austria, and another in Bahrain), until he too settled down this year. Hammy isn’t the only one who’s done it over his career, and may not even be the worst. That said, it was a very stupid move that someone who’s been in F1 for as long as he has to make, especially on someone like Max. Guys get the Red Mist going. Lewis says he’s going to get by no matter what. Max says I’m staying ahead, no matter what. A coming together was likely to happen sometime this year anyway. |

OK, so coming from a guy who has spent quite a lot of time in race cars, mostly open wheel formula cars with wings, Hamilton is not just completely wrong, but the leap to intentional is entirely justified. As a racing driver, you run on many circuits and there are corners and sections where you just don't try dumb shit. As someone else posted earlier, sticking your nose inside someone in a 15 mph hair pin is a "racing accident", but a when a guy with a FIA Super License jams his nose inside someone, who he is clearly NOT alongside and makes contact with left front to right rear, its at best a terrible decision on top of a complete disregard for the many laps that Hamilton has turned at Silverstone over his lifetime. EVERY driver with experience at Silverstone would agree that a pass at Copse is a TERRIBLE idea, especially a desperate attempt such as we witnessed. Thousands of laps at Silverstone over Hamilton's career would have instilled the fact that you can't dive inside someone at Copse without potentially getting someone injured, but certainly resulting in a wreck. To make a pass in a corner such as Copse, you MUST overtake PRIOR to the entrance of the turn and if you do something dumb and attempt it anyway, yes it's you're responsibility to do everything you can to avoid contact with the car on the racing line. Max was in front, it wasn't even debatable, Max was on the racing line, Hamilton created the contacted and he did it in a place where a Formula Ford Driver wouldn't have made such a dangerous attempt, let alone a 7 time F1 World Champion with an FIA Super License. So yes, it could easily have been intentional. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Alot of the simps for Lewis are now trying to blame Horner and Redbull for inciting this "racism" towards lewis. And evidently the bulk of it was the Clown Emoji....so they are now saying the Clown Emoji is racist...... Honk honk I suppose. Lewis's after race antics would have been OK for winning a championship or maybe a first win, but that didn't really apply. |

So what happens if Max's Honda PU is scrap due to the accident? RB won't be punished for replacing it, will they?

If a driver is punted off the track in an accident deemed not his fault, anything on the car that is totaled should be able to be replaced without consequence. |
