Once Hamilton had committed to going on the inside and got alongside Verstappen, he should have not backed out of the throttle. His backing out, put Verstappen a half car length ahead at the corner which gave Verstappen the idea to attempt to close him down. Of course, that is what lead to the crash.
Actually, this point highlights why Verstappen is an exciting driver to watch. He braked so very late, that really freaked out Hamilton. It was scary brave. If he had just kept a wider line through the corner, that would have been the most amazing defence this season.
That corner also shows that Hamilton is getting closer to his retirement age. The limits that the young drivers are willing to go, is becoming too much for him l think. And Verstappen showed that very clearly this Silverstone weekend. He brake so late it seemed it would be impossible for him to slow the car enough to get round the corner. But he had it under control, which is also a testament for how great the Redbull car is.Last edited by Nitrodaze; 22nd July 2021 at 22:25.

Neuville doesn't really have a reason to push anymore. he can't catch ogier or tanak on speed, and katsuta and sordo can't catch him.
