Can you believe that? He probably did it to get away from the shenanigans of Lewis!!
I can't help feeling that Mercedes and Hamilton are victims of a cynical ploy to ramp up interest and takings in F1 for next year by finding a ploy to give Verstappen the championship and dent the Mercedes/Hamilton domination of the competition.In retrospect Hamilton should have pitted, his tires were shot. However, no team could have planned for what happened late in this race. Mercedes wasn’t robbed. Red Bull wasn’t handed the win.
The race ended with an extraordinary, yet fair result. For the record, I didnt/don’t care who won. This is a great driver/team rivalry and it was a fantastic F1 campaign in 2021. Can’t wait for 2022.
Regrettably I agree, F1 was somehow sidetracked into the entertainment industry by Ecclestone, which attracted TV rights and massive budgets, racing in countries that could afford to pay the enormous fees required etc.I can't help feeling that Mercedes and Hamilton are victims of a cynical ploy to ramp up interest and takings in F1 for next year by finding a ploy to give Verstappen the championship and dent the Mercedes/Hamilton domination of the competition.
