My phone is blowing up with texts from my UK F1 mates. Apparently, the best man at my wedding broke a RB fan's jaw in the pub about 30 seconds after the end of the race and was hauled off to jail by the local London constabulary.

My dude was a professional rugby lock, he is damn lucky he didn't kill the poor sod.

This is why I don't want to have a F1 watch party with this group. Someone going to take a swing at me if Lewis wins.

Best quote of the day and season. "It's called motor racing." We all saw Max win on track, regardless of what they do now, we saw it... it happened, Max is champ.

Damon Hill’s incessant whining is what I’m most looking forward to.

Agreed. They absolutely should not change the result, but I don’t put anything past these FIA idiots.



the amount of fans that would tune out and stop watching would be too great if they changed the result.

ETA: After all the gains that were made with the American audience through Drive to Survive. Americans would despise the idea that a race could be switched after trophies had been awarded

Dude is a piss drunk cock. His knowledge may be off the charts, but everyone knows his opinion before it even comes out.

Do not understand how this is Masi’s fault.

It’s terrible luck for Mercedes but this is in no way on FIA.

Why do y’all think Hamilton and Toto were so mad when Latiffi wrecked? Right when he wrecked? It’s because they knew that meant they were about to be bunched up with Max with one lap left.

That it took the full safety car duration for that eventuality to come to fruition doesn’t matter a single lick.

If Masi had done the unlapping properly the safety car couldn't have come in.

If he didn't unlap the cars then Max doesn't have a chance.

Masi chose to make his own rule and just unlap enough cars to put Max behind Lewis, then pulled the safety car before the lapped cars were clear.

They do other nationalities covering the sport on sky. Watching these brits is like Danielson covering a Bama game.

Hamilton def got fricked, but moreso by his team.

Really wish once they saw the wreck with 5 left, they would have red flagged for a fair start and a few laps left to duel it out.

Honestly the way it played out was the only way RB had a chance. Mercedes was easily 0.5 second faster today.

FIA just wanted max TV ratings. Controversy = ratings
