A quick turnaround at the start and a tense battle for the lead earned Lewis Hamilton victory in the Brazilian Grand Prix. Max Verstappen was aggressive and eventually finished second, ahead of Mercedes' Bottas.
What a drive, what a weekend by Lewis. He was in a class of his own. Really no one else had a chance this weekend. The FIA tried their hardest to deny him this weekend but in the end he still prevailed. I don't know if he will win this WDC. Max is an incredibly strong competitor, but he is still not the refined product, today we saw again him resorting to his dirty side, the reluctance to accept he has been beaten. Onto the next one.
He never learns. He might be champion this year because of mercedes hapndicap, but in future he might suffer if he remains in denial mode.
That race was inspirational! To approach a race weekend with the amount of adversity is only see in all time greats. Most would have hung there head. Even if Hamilton had the best car
To think earlier in this very thread we had folks clamoring on about FIA helping Mercedes. Incredible how many on here keep embarrassing themselves.
One exception doesnt settle the balance. Proper track limit adherence in bahrain might have flipped 7 points towards Max, this time it was in Hamiltons favor (even though he didn't need it).
Case in point. Bahrain has nothing to do with it. There is no 'balance' to settle. Thinking this way is just bitter and immature.
Ridiculous - A man who is not even Top 5 in this season - Way worse than Verstappen, behind Norris, Leclerc, Sainz is gojng to win the championship.
Hamilton had a car 5-6 tenths quicker than RB on clear air & couldn't pass a much better driver for 50 races. The championship is over.
Max @ best can get P3 in Saudi & Qatar & maybe P2 or P3 in Abu Dhabi. Hamilton gets 3 wins & will get 27 to 30 points over Max in the next 3 races (The gap is less than 15 now). Even if Hamilton wins the last 3 races, he is world champion in a season he is very mediocre. Mercedes once again comes with a car half a second quicker (which RB never had anywhere near anywhere in the season). Like Jack Villenueve another utterly non-deserving winner !

it is really necessary to vomit all the time? Have some shame

Mercedes handicap?. Hamilton fans are inventing underdog narratives so they can praise him when he wins. Merc has been the fastest car all weekend by like 5 tenths.
"Nosotros diferimos, pero nosotros todos son iguales"
One thing that is very important, Lewis learned from Perez back to back move. Passing in the second DRS zone was the only way to not give Max a hope.
“And suddenly I realized that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension.”
― Ayrton Senna
We had a deserved winner. For that I’m grateful.
VER fought on the edge and imho a bit over but I’d probably would too if I was fighting for a championship. Stewards are the ones that have been inconsistent. Have your beef with them. Not with protagonists that have given us a season to remember
