Last point is that anyone thinking he intentionally tried to get Lewis to hit him needs their head looking at, he came within a whisker of being in the wall while Lewis would've just needed a new wing. Even without that a rear ender will almost always damage the diffuser (unchangeable) and end the face of the car in front whereas 8 times out of 10 the following car changes the wing and carries on.
Out of interest what outcome do you think Max was looking for by braking that hard directly in front of another car? He admitted he was looking in his mirrors. On the wider point, I think there's something great about RB and Verstappen fighting tooth and nail to beat the 7 time world champions. Think how dull this season would have been without them!

What I am not a huge fan of on these threads is being told because I am British, my bias is towards LH and I automatically hate MV.
It is possible to be a hugely passionate F1 Fan, LH supporter and see the boundless talent MV has behind the wheel all at the same time as taking issue with one or another's driving standards.
Yesterday MV made moves that were wrong and poorly judged especially the Brake Check. But he's in his first title fight against one of the best drivers the sport has seen and under huge pressure.
These threads are so much better when it does not descend into Partisan points scoring, as most people have interesting opinions, that whatever side of the fence or even on-top of it you are, make the thread better!
Final race is going to be mega, interesting Jack in the Chequered Flag podcast thinks MV is on for a easy win at last race as the track is suited to the RB car - could be a steady end to the season now that wouldn't do!

I still want Max to win, just so we don't have to hear "Get in there Lewis" and the subsequent "This goes out to all the children of the earth that dare to dream etc".
You won't Plus chippy Lewis when it's going wrong.
Doesn't mean we don't think he's a great driver.
