2021 - Race 19 Brazil

[The Black Knight]

The lastest release of the onboard video show it was clearly intentional. Verstappen can be seen to delay turning into the corner until he had Hamilton off the track before he started turning the wheel. It is very hard to see why the stewards did not take punitive action. Check this out

Agreed. I think there needs to be a rule that these sort of incidents be reviewed after if the stewards decide no action and a grid penalty applied the next race should they get it wrong.

If you and l can see it, it really beggars the question of why the so-called stewards cannot see it. It just smacks of incompetence or corruption. They were able to see seatbelt was loosened. Which is harder to decern than a driver running another of the track.

Yup, simply put, they feigned lack of on-boards to provide cover as they just didn't want to rule against verstappen to "affect" the race. But they had no problems DQ'ing Hamilton from Qualy because a damaged rear wing was .2mm above the threshold. Ok got it!. SMH

Here is Palmer's analysis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZquZxUHtC0

Great find buddy. I just wish the mopheads on this forum do their research more thoroughly before calling people Hamilton fanboys. At this rate, drivers would be allowed to take the race into the pit lane and through the car parks.

they didn't rule against verstappen because they have been allowing that stupid behaviour for years now.

verstappen has been doing those stupid things since his early days, and for some reason they decided it was allowed to push drivers off as long as there is no contact. and even if there's contact, they might still blame the one who gets pushed.

and the DQ has nothing to do with that, it was outside allowed dimensions so the car was illegal. there is no room for interpretation, aan illegal car measn DQ.

Surprisingly, l happen to agree with you on the fact that it is clear the stewards have been very lenient with Verstappen since he was promoted to the Redbull seat. Other drivers that have done similar have met with stiff punishment. But where shall it end? Do they need a fatality for these clowns to do their jobs properly?
