Who is going to pay for all this?

Seriously. There was no space. Just yield man.
Max doesn't know the word yield !

Madness from Verstappen. Behind Hamilton the whole time, tried something that absolutely wasn't on, and in past years we'd be looking at a dead driver.

And yes, as mentioned, on the first lap Hamilton backed out in an identical situation.
Brundle doesn’t agree with you.
Racing incident. Two cars just can’t go into there.

Granted, Brundle tried that on Senna in F2 and ended up the same way.

Lots of people said he was wrong about Silverstone when he said racing incident.

Lewis gave him space on the way in but shut the door on the way out.

No doubt Lewis expected Max to go across the chicane but he didn't.

It looks similar to all their incidents so far this year (including the one on the first lap of this race).

Racing incident IMHO. Max was very unlucky in that the kerb threw his car into Lewis'. If that hadn't happened, or if the tyres had connected side wall to side wall, then wouldn't have been an issue.

And that's me out of the race thread for a few days 😂

Turned down the chance to meet Vettel at Silverstone in 2007. He was a test driver at the time and I didn't think it was worth queuing!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

They were side by side.

Less dangerous than Silverstone, logical end to this fight

I hope they will be no penalty or stupid decision killing the championship

Yes Lewis squeezed him. As Max did to him in the second chicane.
But Max was not even at the Apex. Yield.

He wasn't behind. They were side by side the whole time. Like Ocon vs Vettel earlier.

Max turned into Hamilton. He had no right to be on track going in with Lewis.

Very intentional from Max. Going into a closing gap. He should have driven off track around the curbs.

Lets hear the silverstone critics now.

If Lewis is at fault here then Max is at fault on lap 1. Racing incident both times.

So another serious injury or even death of a driver saved by Halo? Or was it the roll hoop this time?

Brundle doesn’t agree with you.
Brundle saying lap 1 was ok to squeeze lewis off the track. Then saying Max deserves space. 1 very different views on near identical moves

At least there's no change in the championship fight.
