2021 - Race 22 Abu Dhabi

Another bad start for verstappen, he will need to work on that.

But once again weird decisions by the stewards, cutting corners and gaining a place is suddenly allowed again.

But i assume if it was somebody else than hamilton, they would have to give the place back.

Lol Max sove down the inside once again, left no room and effectively pushed hanilton off the track. Then he and Rbr bitching to Masi. Even the stewards agree that max pushed hamilton offf

They warned that they would be tough on any dodgy moves. Hamilton sort of expected Verstappen to lounge into the apex. That is his trademark move. So he left a gap to ensure he got out of the corner unscathed.

I think the stewards would encourage dirty driving if they allowed that move. So it is clear now that it has to be a move that does not force the other driver off the track. But it nonetheless is controversial but a good kind of controversy.

I really find this group of stewards very respectable.

They did the right thing. You can't just torpedo your car into a corner, push another car off the track and expect to gain position. It's a bit of a lesson for Max that was very much needed.

How useless is Bottas?

[F1nKS]

With Max terrible start and he has never had the pace to even stay with Lewis - Lewis deserves first.

What a drive by Perez! He put up a great fight!

[Nitrodaze]

We see now how so crap Bottas is. As Redbull benefits from their second car with Bottas driving casually in 4th. Mercedes made a crucial mistake keeping Bottas for this troublesome 2021 season.

Nicely done by perez, but i don't think it will change anything.
