In 32 years of watching F1... I have never seen an engine change advantage like this .. Lewis has mega power...


He was in the bottom half in the speed trap yesterday. No where near even Ferrari

But he was far enough ahead to prevent ham turning in, so he was far enough ahead.


Sure, and those are the new rules of engagement. Who cares if you make the corner as long as you stop someone else getting past?

They only actual rule that verstappen broke, as far as I can see, is a driver must not leave the track without a justifiable reason. But the regular punishment for that is to have the lap time deleted and the transgression noted, which happened.

You're just going round in circles now and nobody is going to change anybody's mind at this stage. Investigations and reviews of the incident have been carried out. F1 has drawn a line under it. Now we should too.
