I can kind of understand why they wanted it to end that way, but it doesn't leave a great impression on me as just a casual viewer, who I presume they are trying to attract more of to watch the sport, but that might just be me.

Mikey1874 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 This is not the first time unusual and controversial circumstances have come together to produce a last gasp result. For all the precision in motor racing, chaos is always just round the corner. Clarifying the rules is fair enough. But accepting the result is one of the basic foundations of sport.

At silvertsone the penalty could have been larger - I think a 10 sec stop and go would have been fair .. but that was the definition of a decision at Monza, Max made a calculated dive and took them both out, he tried it in Brazil and SA.. these are all sporting calls.. yesterday.. was outcome engineering.

I don't want races or titles won or lost due to safety cars or by DNFs as a result of your competitors bad driving...but it's how it happened this year. Strip both of those away and Max would have won anyway. Probably a couple of races ago. And as for exploiting the rules to your advantage, I view just taking as many new engines as you fancy because the rest of the field are slow and you've limitless money as not very sporting either. Hamilton deserves a load of respect as in my view he's demonstrated how to win graciously and also how to lose graciously. Mercedes (and red bull on other occasions) could do with learning from him.

Hamilton could have changed tyres but his team decided to 'play safe'. Big mistake from Toto and unsurprisingly, he is trying to sweep that error away. The crash at end cost Hamilton, and that was just one of those things, but then again, he won his first title when his friend Timo Glock let him past on last corner. Didn't see Hamilton supporters worrying too much then. I am defo not a Hamilton supporter, no allegiance in any direction. But to say the title was decided on the track when rules wee adjusted to create a particular situation is surprising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazo Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Not a big fan of F1 but took a little interest in this last race shoot out. For the life of me I’m not sure how anyone can think that is fair or even within the rules. Surely all cars must unlap or none ? Someone has created a situation that only impacted 1st and 2nd but not the rest of the field. Not only that but they did so basically knowing who the winner would be. I have no love for LH but he appeared to be in total control until these decisions. As I said though I’m not a follower so maybe this happens all the time ?

Agree Changing the rules to give Lewis Hamilton new tyres to be able to compete perhaps something to consider in review of fall out. It is still the case tyres limit most of what drivers can do. You can't compete with tyres 46 laps old against someone with new soft tyres. Start to the race was best part of it. Same as previous when Verstappen overtook.

However at that stage leader Lewis Hamilton had lapped all bar his nearest four opponents. ”There’s a requirement in the sporting regulations to wave all the lapped cars past,” Masi said. “From that point, it was position six onwards that were still running [on the lead lap], so between 10 or 11 cars had to unlap themselves. “Therefore the Safety Car period was a bit longer than what we would have normally expected.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I happen to disagree with the vastly experienced former Formula 1 driver and world champion who, himself, was cheated out of a title. Hamilton had two (or three) opportunities to manage tyres differently: He could have driven on with his first set of tyres for quite a few more laps when he was setting fastest lap after fastest lap. It was very unlikely at the time that Verstappen would have got him on the undercut but they played it safe and mirrored what Verstappen did so that they could bank track position. Would have worked, too, without the safety car at the end - even though it was a boring option. He could have used the virtual safety car period to swap onto fresh tyres. I don't know what he had available to him at the time. If he had decent mediums or hards, he'd be going safe for getting to the end of the race. He may have given up track position to Verstappen but, most likely, would have got it back through pace or with Verstappen having to change tyres later in the race. The only way that he'd have stood a chance of winning once the safety car came out for Latifi would have been if he was running in second place and either (a) Verstappen stopped for fresh rubber - which would have been suicide - or (b) he stopped for fresh softs, Verstappen didn't and Masi created a one lap shoot out for him to overtake Verstappen. If he'd gone in for tyres on that safety car, it would have almost certainly lost him the race. Verstappen would have stayed out (he had better rubber anyway) and got to the line first.
