Okay, fastest corner. Whatever. The point still stands that no one is going to intentionally wreck at 250 while turning and expect to make it through unscathed. It's race suicide.

Apparently Red Bull hired lawyers

Saw the original report was a bit sus on who put it out.
It borders on cringe hiring a lawyer over this. Would like to hear what grounds they want to sue over.

It's like earlier in the season when Aston was "considering legal action" over the new aero regs.

I get lost when the argument is the corner is so fast no one would do that on purpose. But also it’s fine that Lewis stuck his nose up where it didn’t fit in that same extremely fast curve it’s not his fault he was going that fast and missed the corner and drove max off.
It can’t be both.
And I think that’s Horners biggest beef. Lewis knew that corner was too fast for that move.

Lewis' move would have worked had Max backed out. Not saying Max should have, but that is how aggressive driving works. Force your opponent to give up. Max made Hamilton do exactly that earlier in the lap.
Max didn't back out and Lewis didn't have a backup plan for how to avoid Max.

nvmd. checked again.
It's still an intentional on Hamilton though. I thin only Merc and well wishers believe otherwise.

Not sure if their angle is to challenge the Hamilton penalty to try and get more, which likely won't work.
Or maybe their angle is to try and get the damages removed from the cost cap since the ruled Hamilton was predominantly at fault, which seems a reach since Max was deemed somewhat at fault. Not sure if FIA will have to then put a number on what percentage of fault each was at then award damages based on that. Seems like a can of worms to open.

Does the amount of racers and analyst that have come out saying it wasn't intentional and probably more of a racing incident bother you?
I get RBR being how they are, I think Merc would be whining all the same. Just haven't seen a single legitimate independent racer or analyst say Lewis intentionally wrecked him.

The FIA? 
Posted on 7/20/21 at 5:42 pm to blueboy
The FIA said the blame was split.
Posted on 7/20/21 at 5:45 pm to fightin tigers
That must be why they penalized both of them?

Very seldom does the FIA punish the minority offender, especially if they DNF as a result.
Even when blame is 50/50 a DNF usually doesn't result in any sort of penalty, unless it is particularly egregious. ROS/HAM in 2016 Spain is an example of a driver doing something dangerous and not even getting points on their license.

Look. dude (I assume). Sorry your Hammy dickriding has hit a bumpy road, but this one is pretty clear. Happily, Max did not die.
Posted on 7/20/21 at 6:35 pm to blueboy
Look, bro. I haven't said Hamilton wasn't to blame, quite the opposite.
The narrative that Lewis tried to intentionally kill him or intentionally wreck him is absurd. Only fringe Max loyalist and rabid Lewis haters are running with that.

"Trying to kill him" is inaccurate. It's more like "didn't care if he died."
