so Palmer...Racing incident
What was interesting was the Saturday sprint race (40secs into the video) where on the same corner Hamilton was the one on the outside, slightly creeping ahead, and Verstappen then pushed his car from the inside apex to out wide, and Hamilton was wise enough not to simply turn in. I wonder where all those folks were lamenting Verstappen not keeping to the inside apex, knowing a car was on the outside. (specifically Hill and Button) lol...crickets.
Come Sunday, roles are reversed, and Hamilton keeps his inside line, and Verstappen simply turns in with no notion of giving room.
I'd say, it was a pretty clear cut. On Saturday, he ran him out-wide, on Sunday he tried to jam him inside.
Also included was the 2018 Sainz Grosjean incident on the same corner lap one, where Grosjean was right on the apex and curbs. Sainz turned in anyway and they had a coming together.
That was deemed a racing incident.
I really think the stewards let their emotions get in the way of the actual facts.
Because that 2018 incident was way more problematic IMO and it still was a racing incident.
The only difference is that both cars were out.
I bet you if both Hamilton and Verstappen were out, they would say; "Racing incident" SMHLast edited by truefan72; 20th July 2021 at 19:48.
