which one Mercedes getting away with it at turn one, or the stewards normal decision on the safety car, Mercedes pit crew lost it by not letting Lewis pit, if they had he would be home and dry
 
I'm not a Hamilton fan either but the stewards have had a massive say in that result, Hamilton was by far the best driver in that race. Why should those lapped cars allowed to pass Hamilton when he had got passed them before the safety car came out

Makes no sense to me mate other than the stewards wanted to see a final lap race but Hamilton prior to the crash was so far ahead.

its the rules mate and they only change that one rule when its a wet race and too dangerous not to let them pass

but then his pit crew decided not to pit for tyres, which gave him that advantage, not thinking there would be a crash but ultimately that pit decision cost them the race
 
Seriously strange decision at the end to let the back markers past but maybe Mercedes should've come in for tyres at the safety car to say least give him a chance to fight for the lead if they did lose position

Never had the chance mate as Hamilton was passing the pits as safety car came out, verstappen didn't deserve to win that race. Drive v drive Hamilton was way ahead

Hamilton didn't have the chance mate as he was passing the pits when the safety car came out. Bad luck maybe

im neutral on this mate, and its been normal practice restarts after the safety car unless wet, even the commentators said it i can see both sides if i was Lewis i would be fuming lets hope he can rise above it and come back fighting next year, hope he doesn't spit his dummy out and do anything foolish he does have a hot temper
