Still buzzing from that McLaren 1-2. Wasn’t sure I’d ever see one again
On the Max/Ham crash, I agree with the majority of the posters views on here. A racing incident, with Max more to blame. He has to go for the move, and I’m glad he did as it’s entertaining, but should’ve realised that Ham would squeeze him and he’d end up over the sausage dog curbs.
We see that attempted move year in, year out around that chicane, and more often than not it ends with the guy on the outside going into T1 having to use the escape road or the cars colliding at T2 with a myriad of different outcomes. You really have to be quite far ahead turning into T1 to be able to make the move stick, and even then it’s dicey.
Glad they’re both OK. I don’t agree with the penalty for Max, but I didn’t agree with the Silverstone one for Hamilton. Or indeed the Austria one for Lando or the two for Perez later in that race.
The various noise from both teams & drivers about blame, rights & wrongs is pretty tiring now too. It’s all an attempt to get one over the other and it creates a bit of drama & popcorn-munching GIF type attention, but I’d rather they just shut up & got on with it now. It’s petty & distracting from one of the best racing seasons I can remember for a long long time.
