Yeah, apparently they might build a purpose-built track elsewhere, would be the best idea. At a minimum they need to sort out the layout and scrub some speed, too many stoppages and VSCs

The stewards are still going to investigate the collision between Max and Lewis.

What do we think happens? A time penalty for Max, if it’s proven he brake-tested Lewis, won’t make a real difference at all. If Lewis gets the blame, what punishment does he get? He’s one reprimand away from a 10 place grid penalty…

If it's dangerous driving even disqualifying him could be an option... But doubt that will be used.

I was going to ask the same thing in what penalties could be given also, as never seen this happen before!

Watching the post race interviews and the sky sports feed went black when Verstappen was asked about the incident. And then came back on for the next question. Bit dodgy

Hahahahaaaaa - Max gets voted driver of the day - fans spoke their minds!

Verstappen will just be saying he slower down to give the place back and Hamilton hit him.
Hamilton will say he wasn't aware of what was going on, max put on his breaks and moving around a bit.

There bloody well should be.

There should be, but I can guarantee the stewards / FIA won't meddle with the last race being such a tightly contested title decider.

Never underestimate the sheer ignorance of the general public.

Yeah they won’t want to take the sting out of the next race. It should be a cracker really.

Are they investigating the break testing after the race?

 

[Rocksuperstar]

Watching the replays of that collision - Why did Lewis not go around him, regardless of the lack of information? All he knew was Max slowed suddenly and that could happen for so many reasons, but he didn't immediately overtake him. Yes, to us, it's seconds, but his instinct should surely have been to take that as an opportunity, but you can see Hamilton brakes hard and doesn't even attempt to pass him... I wonder if it just didn't compute and he just wtf'sgoingon'd into the back of Max.

So weird a moment, I wouldn't be surprised if the brass end up just ticking off the Red Bull garage for being dicks, then walk away wondering none the wiser on what actually happened

Should be bloody interesting given the layout changes, could suit either team.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Max being a classless little prick. Shocked.

 

[mezza84]

Moody prick walked off the podium. Stay classy Red Bull.

I think that's the one they're looking at after the race. Given how slow the stewards have been lately we'll probably know the outcome in January!

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

lol - Max just walked off the podium!

 

[Rocksuperstar]

The fan's Driver of the Day, ladies and gentleman, Mr Max Vers.s..... oh, he's gone

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Max summoned to the stewards.

Grid penalty for the pre-season testing...
