WC is deserved. IMO.

[ENGINE TUNER]

Verstappen allowed to push Hamilton off track without even an investigation in Brazil 21, but LEC penalized for going off this year, same old consistency from the stewards.

THEY PREMATURELY ANNOUNCED THE TITLE OMG

[MtthsMlw]

What's happening???

[ispano6]

10

Haha the way that was announced was so anti climatic. I know everyone knew he was going to win it, but that was terrible

[F1NAC]

I will remember that.

Just for others..

Not the same incident, BUT.. Perez pushing others at Silverstone. NO PENALTY

If that was RB there would be no penalty.

[GrizzleBoy]

Thats strange.

I thought we didn't like retrospective penalties and championships won off of the track or in the stewards room.

[Spoutnik]

What happened ? I turn off the TV when they crossed the line

[e30ernest]

Congratulations to Max for grabbing the title in Suzuka. Also amazing for Honda to be able to celebrate a world championship in their home race.

Leclerc deserved a penalty for that last corner so fair play.

Slam dunk boring was that race wet races ain't what they used to be

you can thank the teams for this with all the simulators so that their drivers are inch perfect through all weather conditions before they even hit the track. The driving quality is too predictable these days due to the vast sim tech and engineering tools that at their disposal. Back then in the schumi days it was his skill that made the difference. now its just computer modelling, sim work to death and robotic driving for most cases.

and also cars that cant pass. this years cars have led to closer racing but at the expense of the slipstreaming effect.

Yeah, wonderful, rigged chmapionship in the last moment. This is beyond ridiculous

Yeah. Charles got paid by RedBull, like Latifi was last year

[Spacepace]

The weirdest way to be told your world champion. Being told by Johnny Herbert like your Dad having a hidden gift for you behind the Christmas tree

[BlueCheetah66]

Wait what but its 7 points from 1st to 3rd?

I thought the points are different for 50% races

[Spoutnik]

Thats strange.

I thought we didn't like retrospective penalties and championships won off of the track or in the stewards room.

F1 is becoming such a joke.
This anti climatic WDC is the cherry on the cake, for a year and a technical regulation change to forget.
