Let’s see what CAS decides. As far as I understand the rules it’s legal.
F1 2021 Season
- Thread starter pauldyson1uk
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Lewis...
Yeah, some of the shit thrown at 'English' fans is pathetic. The Dutch are just as biased, if not more.Yeah, because the Dutch have definitely covered themselves in glory
Claiming 'salty fans' as a reason for being against a dumb decision is about as ludicrous as it gets. Absolute toddler logic but then we have man-child in charge of RB who always whines until it goes his way and we had it happen again here.
we have a precedent of rules don’t matter. that makes things spicy for next year.
Anybody saying the decision doesn’t affect the sport are clearly not being objective.
Sport should never be artificially creating drama. That’s what it was today and it takes away massively from a maiden world championship win by guy that didn’t really do anything wrong.
Rules need to be changed before not all kicks off again, because such big moments should never be decided by people who can decide “whatever they want”.

See you here in january when the CAS verdict comes in
Most definitely Still lots of handbags to last the week at least.
NFL?
and the fia.
F1 2021 - feck you and I’ll see you next year.
I really hope so. This season has dragged me back in after decades of indifference - a fight between even 4 teams for the championship would be far preferable if rare.
That sounds as much of a fantasy as Hamilton winning this race
It'd last about 3mins before the level of swearing and disrespect of officials turned the TV people straight off.
I found it somewhat amusing that a grown up multi millionaire can reduce himself to something resembling a little kid not getting the Christmas present he wantedMichael please
Well he stands up for some things the locals may not like so maybe not the best place to take a straw poll
This exactly like in Wrestlemania 9 when Yokozuna beat Bret Hart for the title, only for the ref to randomly allow Hulk Hogan to immediately challenge (and beat) a tired Yokozuna and win the belt.
Powers that be changing the rules to entertain.
Pro-Wrestling and F1 = Sports Entertainment.
I love Max, but this is a terrible decision. Masi has been horrendous all season.
The sport is being damaged by the FIA. Overruling would bring a little more credibility to the sport and hopefully overhaul Masi and Co.
The appeal should go to the top.
i’m monumentally fecked off for the hours i feel i’ve now wasted watching f1 this year. i can’t imagine how it feels to dedicate your life to it and have it happen. i think mercedes have come out of this with a lot of credit so far.
Meh, I think it's quite clear both Max and Lewis are extremely good and much better than the rest of the field, but saying which one would be faster right now in the same car? I doubt anyone can say that with any certainty.
But feck me who wouldn't want to find out.
Guess the fia better get working on a way to fek up mec like they did Hamilton then
I would argue that F1 stewards know the rules of F1 better then random guy on football forum
Agree it's total BS and cannot see how you even need a rule book if this 'rule' is part of it. It's basically a general overrule clause.
I also get 'checked' in my day job and the people checking me are literally making the rules (as they go sometimes). I feel somewhat qualified to symphatise with Mercedes here
Björn Kuipers is clearly the issue here.
Hamilton you're the one
You weren't in the wrong
Racing's coming home again!

The new rules should make things pretty spicy but I would expect the field to get closer to Mercedes/Red Bull if I had to bet. Ferrari might be pretty strong considering they basically abandoned development in this year's car in preparation for next year.
Do you have a link?
Absolute joke of a circus.
Hamilton should have won that. I am still astonished hours on how they dealt with it.
People say that Verstappen won’t care - he will. Massive asterisk against his name in many people’s eyes for the foreseeable future. He had a phenomenal season, but that doesn’t dismiss the comeback Hamilton made to claw himself back into title contention and the drive he pulled off for 58 of the laps today before being the subsequent shitshow.

At least Jos won’t get too angry and have to smack a bitch tonight.
@pauldyson1uk is it too soon to start the 2022 season thread? Wouldn't mind one where we can discuss next season and the new regs etc and leave this seasons discussion and controversy in here.
^Weird bloke.This thread is like reading the RAWK thread when we won the CL in 08. You can actually see where all the salty Ham fans lose their collective shit when they realise that Ham and Merc have fecked it.
fecking glorious
And on top of that Toto pleading like a prison bitch on the Radio on that last lap. My god, stick it in my veins!!!
I can absolutely guarantee you that he won't give a shit.
He'll think about Baku and Silverstone and Hungary and think, karma.
Agreed.
You'd think Denethor would know well enough the importance of allowing Frodo safe passage into Mordor as well. Sometimes stewards get it wrong!
Had enough of him and Horner on screen for tonight. Roll onto Winter Testing 2022!
The tension on that last lap was unbelievable. An overtake on the last lap of the last race.It was glorious wasn't it
We all thought it came down to the last race, who'd have thought it'd be the last lap
To finally have another team challenge Mercedes was great entertainment.
I can't wait till next year to see what way the grid lines up, and Russell next to Hamilton should be pretty interesting as well

Is it confirmed it goes to CAS? I reckon Lewis might actually not want that. Otherwise nice deflection from merc for the absolute shitshow of tactics tonight.
Max is a competitive animal. He won’t like the questions marks over them.
