So , backing Seb into Daniel was just a racing tactic .
I've seen split-screen of the 2 offs for Lewis and Max , and they are almost identical , which makes it hard to understand why one was and one wasn't penalized .
Other than keeping the title fight alive , it doesn't look like there's another upside to it .
Max was lucky as well to not cop another penalty for pushing Nico off .
Sebastian whined his way onto the podium with a blue rant directly at the race director , only to have it taken away from him after further investigation , and thus , deserves to apologize for his childish antics to all and sundry .
At this point , the little boy needs a swear jar , where each foul word gets him a five-place demotion .
And , he does need some sanction for his words at Charlie . You should not be allowed to do that , ever .
