Lewis Hamilton: “Can I unlap myself or not?”

Adami: “Just wait for Piastri to stop. He’ll stop soon. Best to stay there.”

Lewis blasts past Oscar at the next straight! Car retired within 2 laps.

You either see the incompetent strategy call at play here or you don't.

If your Twitter account is still active, go sign in and clap back at wingnuts until you get one of these...Unlock, log out and come back tomorrow.

The wingnut cesspool could use the balance.

ICE is out of control and beyond repair This agency needs to be stripped down to the studs. Dems should start preparing now.

Is your Twitter account still active? Could you take 5 or 10 miuntes out of your day to pushback on the numbskulls in their own arena? It may cause some temporary pain but pulling the yahoos off their soapbox is a useful outcome!

Sunday and Monday are especially good days to do that.

@f1tv.bsky.social @redbullracingf1.bsky.social @mercedesamgf1team.bsky.social Here is what I think.

Rather than see Lewis surpass Schumacher, the governing body let the rightsholder fix the outcome.

A shameful and disgusting act and makes the sport less worth caring about.

What makes you think that? From the corporate point of view, they had the Constructors...further pursuit of sporting fairness for Lewis was unnecessary risk.

Ben Sulayem should send the bogus Stewards' denial to the ICA for review.

Sport is reality, not reality TV.

That pursuit is the EXACT REASON a great season can end with an illegal restart that screws many drivers and teams to give the WDC to a one team in an "exciting" finish.

No thanks.

his move to Ferrari.

Once the FIA analyzed and report the restart was illegal but due to human error and not malice or corruption, the stewards' denial of the Mercedes appeal was also wrong. The case *should* have gone to the ICA for review.

You need to find and read the ICA decision on a subsequent race with a 'broken by the race director' restart. (Case ICA 2023-03). The ICA explicitly rules out any 'overriding authority' of the race director to alter the written regulations. The decision was released one week after Lewis announced

Is that the same as illegal and unsporting?

If Massa gets his way, a lot of 'settled' history is open to reconsideration.
-Alonso's P1 at Singapore '08.
-Schumi's WDC over Hill...
-Senna over Prost...

...and certainly a win awarded in an illegal restart.

Deserved is not a criteria for awarding any championship in any sport. For Formula 1, it is points scored at finish.

The last two laps of the 2021 season were illegal.

Lewis was robbed.

Send the Stewards' denial to the ICA!

Sign the Petition FIA to refer the 2021 F1 WDC to the ICA

@f1tv.bsky.social @autsport-com.bsky.social @espn.com @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social If the restart was determined to be illegal, how can the stewards' denial that sanctioned the outcome not also be determined to be wrong?

The ICA should have been handed the case back in 2022.
