Being sad because you get on stage?
Who here is claiming anyone is against Lewis?! That's what you make of it.

The lights shone bright on the scarlet Scuderia Ferrari car of Carlos Sainz today as the Spaniard controlled the lenghty race to win at Singapore after a long string of Red Bull victories. Lando Norris finished an unexpected second while Hamilton completed the podium after a late mistake by Russell.

A great first effort to hold backDarth-Piekus wrote: ↑19 Sep 2023, 14:29Trust me Im in no way shape or form able to dictate what people can discuss here nor am I trying to. All I said is that the stewards compared to us have more data on their screen and they and Mercedes decided that Lewis had to give the position back to Norris. Hamilton would not have been able to pass Norris if there was a wall there or a sandtrap instead of normal asphalt. At the end of the day the stewards have the dara to decide however noone knows what happens behind the curtains. Corruption exists in every organisation and I do believe the FIA was no exception. However I am in no position to prove it.
Lets just say that its bothering me as a fan of Mclaren our team to be the only one penalized so much in the history of F1 and others escaping without harm for similar offences.
"Nothing about the relationship" but keeps going on at it like a dog with a bone.chrisc90 wrote: ↑19 Sep 2023, 18:51Nothing about the relationship between them at all - it’s just the second time that Lewis has been on the podium and the team failed to celebrate the occasion with him.
Not that it’s a huge deal - just a little odd given the team usually shows up for the top 3 finishers in god knows how many years.
Lewis didn’t look his normal self on the podium either
Imo, that's called being a professional in general!
And by your metric, overtaking on the inside shouldn't be possible?cplchanb wrote: ↑19 Sep 2023, 16:04so by your metric you can divebomb into a corner without any regard to safety and automatically be afforded space? thats max speak right there. what happened to showing caution and due care when making a lunge? the move from perez was desperate and required yuki to yield by force. its what you would find in GT7 lobbies.
I thought that your post about it all being Yuki's fault was actually a jokeTFSA wrote: ↑19 Sep 2023, 21:51And by your metric, overtaking on the inside shouldn't be possible?cplchanb wrote: ↑19 Sep 2023, 16:04so by your metric you can divebomb into a corner without any regard to safety and automatically be afforded space? thats max speak right there. what happened to showing caution and due care when making a lunge? the move from perez was desperate and required yuki to yield by force. its what you would find in GT7 lobbies.
Going for a very open gap isn't divebombing. Divebombing is where you brake way too late on purpose, hoping the other driver just gets out of the way. Perez was on the kerb here trying to avoid Yuki cutting across. As evidenced by the pictures i provided, the gap was clearly there. Yuki was all the way to the left at the time Perez was far enough along to be entitled to space - and then Yuki just cuts across the track, completely ignoring Perez presence.
That's not a divebomb. And it's certainly not Perez fault. Yuki had every opportunity to take the outside line.
The Albon incident is another story.
In my original post, i said that you can argue racing incident - but if we have to blame someone, it's not Perez.
All responsibility to NOT crash is always on the overtaker, not the overtakee.
Not if the one being overtaken does something stupid - like a late defensive move.Zynerji wrote:All responsibility to NOT crash is always on the overtaker, not the overtakee.
Swerving to crash (like Schumacher/ Hill) is the only exception!
Yuki in the RBR for Japan, please!
Yeah Hamilton didnt get any space in Spa, oh wait he totally did....
