    Well I guess Sprint Qualifying was successful. This race would never have had this much drama had the pole order not been shaken up by the spring qualifying.

    Max was 3/4 of the way alongside and Lewis simply didn't leave enough space.. what was Max supposed to do? How you guys above can still blame Max is pretty hilarious.

    Ah well... at least Lewis didn't go on and win it this time and Max still gained some net points and extended his championship lead this time.

    Also RBR continue their stupidity by not telling Perez to give back the spot. And Perez should have known better
    If Perez had given the spot back, Bottas would have also passed at the same time. If Bottas had gotten past then, he would have had a chance to win the race. So RBR was minimizing how much the Mercedes points gain.

    Max gave Hamilton no room on the first lap, Hamilton gave Max the same treatment in return, except Hamilton actually gave Max slightly more room. Max should have gone over the chicane like Lewis did.

    great day for Mclaren. Congrats Danny and Lando.
    Great drive back from Bottas
    Russel finishes p9 solid.
    double points for Alpine again
    and very good double points for Ferrari.

    I'm out because I know the predictable nonsensical arguments that are going to ensue trying to defend the buffonery of Mad Max .
    We shall see what the stewards are going to say. But the lunacy of SkyF1 commentary just adds to my frustration.

    Once again, really happy for Mclaren. It has been a long journey back and what a result!
    you can't argue with results.

    yup. Just like every other car did. All except max. It is amazing how the guy forgets what he did on lap 1 and then has the audacity to complain.
    He was behind, and knew 100% he wasn't going to make that pass, but stuck his nose in anyway in typical mad max fashion, thinking the other driver would just move out of the way.
    mind you trying to make the pass on the kerbs as well. it was a mazepin worthy move.
    Nothing about the move was a racing incident.
    I will also in fairness issue slight blame to the useless Mercedes pit stop crew who continue to be shambolic on pit stops. a 4:2sec stop is unacceptable and this is a typical occurrence in the past 2 seasons.
    Hamilton should have come out P2 and chasing Ricciardo down.
    But At the end of the day, mad max takes the cake.
    And the dude didn't even bother to check on hamilton.
    Maniac.

    Perhaps.. but that still doesn't make Lewis not at fault for this one.

    He should. But he didn't have to.

    And if he didn't, lewis had to give him space, which he didn't.

    I call it a racing incident. Both could have easily avoided it, but both chose not to give in.

    You blamed Hamilton for Silverstone and Hamilton was far more alongside Max in Silverstone than Max was alongside Lewis today. If this was a racing incident so was Silverstone.
