If you have Christan Horner and Helmut Marco at the top of an organization, it can't be much of a surprise to see some issues further down. Both appear to be significantly challenged in the integrity department.
Do you know them personally to slander them, or is this just your enormous LH bias creeping out yet again? I can only wonder how quickly you’d complain if anyone said anything personal about Hamilton, of course, that would be off limits.

These are the same people that insisted Max didn't brake in front of Lewis last weekend only to be proved incorrect?

I don't know either of them personally, just their words and actions over many years. Only a few days ago they were both lying about the brake test before having the facts. It's a pattern of behaviour that's easily observed and quite clear.

In your opinion. Now do tell me how many F1 drivers you have personally managed, so I can compare your experience with Horner’s? It’s just LH bias from a super fan. I’m sure you’d throw your driver under the bus, at the point of him being a potential WC. Laughable.

Not opinion. Demonstrably true unfortunately. Marko apologised just this week for lying and being pulled up on it...but blamed his engineers, who apparently are unable to read their own data.

I actually think Lewis would be acutely embarrassed if he read this thread and some of the comments from his 'fans'.

Yes, but the quote was ‘words and actions over many years’. 2009 Australian GP anyone? It’s racing, not dress making, oh, probably shouldn’t raise that one either rofl

Can’t wait for the weekend.

More than likely yes, as he strikes me as a nice guy.

Max wouldn't though IMHO...

And which rule exactly did they clarify half way trough the race in Spa '08? They gave Hamilton a penalty after the race, not half way through it. This is starting to read like a rant.
Lewis overtook Kimi but went off circuit to do it. He gave the place back, was fully behind Kimi then overtook him again at the next corner. The 'clarification' was that you could not overtake again immediately but had to remain behind for some spurious time or number of corners. That was never in the rules. You are right it was after the race, not in it.

The Race Director Event Notes for Abu Dhabi specifically mention the potential to deduct points or exclude from the championship. I think it's fair to say the potential outcome of this race has not gone unnoticed!

IF they do, please get it done sooner rather than later.
That way we will know who the ‘provisional’ Champion is & can sit back & enjoy the rest of the race.
Of course... I would prefer a good clean fight to the end & may the best man win. rolleyes

Even if the stewards were to make a decision to penalise one of the drivers mid-race, you know full well that the arguments will carry on for months.

Lets just hope it doesn't happen.

Still to this very day every single post from F1, WTF1 etc on Twitter, Instagram etc is still full of people in the comments kicking off about Hamilton 'nearly killing' Verstappen at Silverstone.

It'll never go away!

Most of us thought lap 1 at Saudi would be a huge pileup, hopefully most of us will be wrong again, good clean race smile

At least people are talking about (and watching) the sport again. Best championship for many years.

That was not a good clean race.

Hopefully this last one is.

The rules about unsporting behaviour and points deduction have been valid all season, proper pantomime stuff to put that in the notes now when these rules haven't been enforced all year.

Every single event is as important as the last one, all points count equally. It simply illustrates what a farce this championship is these days in sporting terms.
