But Lec decided Max's race. Why is he allowed to decide someone else's race? That's why we have (had) rules regarding space and all that.
Things happens, he also ruined his own race so it's not like it was intentional.

Irrelevant. And nobody is speaking about intentions either. The rules and penalties are there so that you preempt such events. Otherwise it's a demolition derby.

His actions, intentional or not, destroyed Max's race. Max did nothing wrong. Nothing at all. He was minding his own business with lots of space and Lec just drifted right into him like he was on a boat.

Looks like Hamilton is the one screwed by strategy rather than Bottas!

Ah well. Bottas deserves a bit of luck.
Remember when Bottas was asked to let Hamilton through a couple of races ago? James said "we'll make it right later" or something like that. This is the pay back from that.

Terrible stewarding today.

False start- so what if a sensor didn’t go off? It impacted other drivers (Leclerc) and you could argue led to Verstappen/Leclerc.

Verstappen Leclerc. Bottling the decision. Why do they need to wait? Leclerc’s Actions cost Verstappen his race. The fact he’s had to stop as well is irrelevant and shouldn’t be a factor.

No black flag for Leclerc with bits falling off his car (which damaged another car)

Albon Norris. Nothing.

Poor.

So if a hockey player tackles someone, and that player is injured. Should the guy who tackled him be punished? No, ofc not.

It's sport, it's racing, sometimes you bump into someone. It's all part of the game.

Mercedes is way faster today, a 1-2 is expected. Lewis can pass Vettel is he stays focused. Another pole wasted but with this pace it is impossible to win.

I'm not talking about hockey, I'm talking about F1. Where you are sitting in a machine going 300 kmh. Rules are different when you are sitting in a coffin limited by that machine's abilities as opposed to limited by your own body.

Anyway, I'm done arguing this.

Could be. Either way good for Bottas! Nice to see a nice guy win.

Well.. if the guy breaks both his legs by the tackle.. I do think the other guy should get punished.

Next time- try a bit harder to come up with some propper arguments, this is just waisting everybodies time.
