So you are only allowed to overtake at certain points and you are allowed to take short cuts?ForeverAddickted said:

Perez has done Hamilton dirty there0

Wow... Yeah 5secs taken out by Max on one lapDamoNorthStand said:Tbf that was fucking dangerous. He basically stopped on the apex!0 -

Fantastic teamwork from Perez.1

Bottas about as useful as one of these.2 -
Stewards really are just leaving them to it today

No. You can’t force another driver off the track needlessly to gain an advantage. If you have track position, you can shut the door and force the other driver to brake or, if they choose, go off. Verstappen didn’t have track position at the apex, no matter what Whinger spice says. Hamilton was ahead, Verstappen overtook him on the apex and willfully shut the door forcing Hamilton off.PrincessFiona said:

I do agree that Hamilton got the benefit of the recent statements about encouraging fair driving and got lucky. But Verstappen only has himself to blame. Again.1 -
Only question is the Hamilton advantage that he created.lordromford said:

Do the stewards have evidence of him slowing though0 -
If he successfully overtook, why does the other driver not just slow down rather than take a short cut and gain an advantage over the driver who got past him?lordromford said:

Why should Hamilton when the other bloke hasnt gone for a clean pass yet instead has gone with the aim of pushing him off - Not to mention there was the risk that slowing down would have seen others past him.PrincessFiona said:

The issue is Max had nothing to lose. If he gets past he probably wins, if he takes Lewis out he wins.PrincessFiona said:

it’s a free hit for Max so Lewis did the only thing he could. Stay out of trouble by taking evasive action.

Can you 'successfully overtake' by forcing another driver off the track?PrincessFiona said:

Not really if Verstappen was able to overtake Sainz cleanly.PrincessFiona said:

Why didn't he do the same to Hamilton?0 - Sponsored links:

Think mercedes may have fucked up there not bringing lewis in3

Got a feeling Verstappen might have just won this0

Yeah Max will catch him nowRedvalleyeast said:Think mercedes may have fucked up there not bringing lewis in0 -
I get that if Lewis came in RB would have left Max out but surely you’d rather be chasing on fresh tyres.2

Yeah absolutely this would have happenedstackitsteve said:I get that if Lewis came in RB would have left Max out but surely you’d rather be chasing on fresh tyres.1 -
Lewis is driving superbly. Just 0.3 made up on that lap.2
-
Is Max closing enough? - Will Lewis' tyres hold out!!0
-
Hamilton needs the other Mercedes to go off and the safety car to come out.0

Because he was in the right situation at the time, which it seems wasn't the 'right' position. I'm sure any driver would overtake whenever they could, but it seems there are too few 'right' opportunitiesForeverAddickted said:
