hmmm...so now we know what Schumacher was going to do 20 years ago? and people are certain about itJust_a_fan wrote: ↑11 Nov 2018, 21:16Only because there was a garage full of McLaren (and some Ferrari guys) getting in between them. If that were not the case, it certainly looked like he was up for a good old bit of pushy/shovy like Max did, or worse.siskue2005 wrote: ↑11 Nov 2018, 21:11did he punch him? i watched that race live.....but where did he hit DC? he didnt even take a swing at him....he was angry and was going to argue with him angrily at that point.
oh god.....dont praise Lewis about anything here....otherwise we will have the usual suspects coming to murder u for that.astracrazy wrote: ↑11 Nov 2018, 21:16Quiet refreshing hearing Lewis give Max some advice. I think Lewis sees himself in Max and knows he would have made similar mistakes 10 years ago. In a way it shows what a comeplete driver Lewis has now become.

Hamilton on Ocon to Verstappen: "He's allowed to unlap himself, you know."
Verstappen: Yeah but not the race leader like that."
The problem was widespread. Alonso's blue flag penalty was more of the same. He was pushing on new super softs, probably didn't have the guy behind come is quickly enough, and opted too long to stay ahaead. Not much of a difference for him anyway though.NathanOlder wrote: ↑11 Nov 2018, 20:57What people are not thinking about is Max was driving to look after his tyres (which was right) Ocon had almost brand new supersofts and had a lot more pace available. Max should have just let him go. Lewis was no threat at that point.
And goodbye to racing career and one way ticket to a prison. Getting a free bar of soap as a welcome gift.
Apparently Lewis also said remember you have more to lose.Just_a_fan wrote: ↑11 Nov 2018, 21:22Indeed:https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/formula1/45190875Talk in the cool down room...

Max seemed to think that as race leader he shouldn't have been unlapped. Not sure if that shows a lack of understanding or a bit of ego.
I reckon Max needs to hold his hands up and accept that he messed up. He drove the racing line with a car that was almost fully alongside on his inside.
