Perez Is the only car on the hard compound to start. A one stop strategy I'm guessing.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
This will be interesting if he takes a penalty after precedent FIA set two weeks ago.
Not a Hamilton fan but I don't see how you can penalize him there.
Agree. Though it does look like he was taking the inside line then went wide last minute. But, it's a race
That looked like a hell of an impact. The gravel didn't seem to slow him down at all
Drive to Survive Season 4 could easily have the entire season be about the fight between Max and Lewis. This has to be one of the biggest rivalries this sport has ever seen, and it went up by a big notch today.

Only reason I expect a penalty is because of how the stewards have penalized drivers the past few races, over what were "racing incidents".
I agree with Horner, that was a BS move by Hamilton.
10 sec penalty. Whoof
Ten second penalty for Hamilton.
Well you got it. 10 secs.
To me, it's a race. You want guys to race close and have excitement for the fans you're going to have this.
That being said, it would have been interesting to see the line Hamilton was taking if max wasn't there. It was an odd line and seemed he was taking the full width of the track.

Trash penalty
I feel like Lewis's radio guy has a second job as a psychiatrist. Every message is, "Understood Lewis,."
I think A. Precedent was set the last two races on what's penalized and B. They don't want verstappen's entire lead erased by that incident.

Maybe it's me, but I've noticed Hamilton takes a wider line when he's passing in a corner on the inside, forcing the other driver way outside. I've noticed it over the past couple seasons and it seems intentional to me. He's sure involved in a lot of "rubbin's racing" incidents doing it.
Particularly with Red Bull cars, he got Albon twice in previous years.

That's where I started to notice it.
Not happy Max is out
Ecstatic if Charles pulls this out

Why did they pit Perez so early when he started on the hards. The mediums weren't going to take him to the end.
Bottas needs to tell Mercedes to EAD and find a new team. He's too good of a driver to be playing #2.
Max going to hospital. Concussion?
lol. Hamilton do the same exact thing?
Red Bull has got to be pissed.
Looked like he was stuck and not making any progress
Horner has got to be fuming right about now.
Fun race
He made his feelings quite clear during his post-race interview.sburg2007 said:

Missed it. A house full of kids and grandparents ruined that. I'll have to go find it.
Quote:
Speaking to Channel 4 he added: "I think it was a desperate move. He failed to make the move in the first part of the lap, which he was obviously geared to do, and then it was just a desperate move sticking a wheel up the inside which you just don't do. Copse is one of the fastest corners in the world. You don't stick a wheel up the inside. That's just dirty driving."

Most people will walk away with the crash as leading story. For me, it's learning that Toto is all our bosses rolled into one person:
He called the man to ask him if he saw the email he just sent.... toto is dead to me now.

"a wheel"
That's asinine. Hamilton was fully alongside heading into the corner. Then you had a combo of Verstappen braking very late and Hamilton breaking a little early. That doesn't entitle Verstappen to the corner. If Hamilton charges into the corner the way Max did, he pushes Max wide on exit and then they're crying just as badly.
