December 12, 20214 yr And Massi only let 5 lapped cars through. Massi making shit up for viewers and clicks.
December 12, 20214 yr I think we can all agree that Masi is simply terrible at his job. This is bottom line for all kinds of reasons, not just related to Max and Lewis. He’s been in the conversation as much as those two and that’s unacceptable.
December 12, 20214 yr That was shitty. I wanted to see Hamilton be dethroned, but it’s clear that without all the bullshit Hamilton wins this race easily.

December 12, 20214 yr 3 minutes ago, Anton Chigurh said: They only let the cars in front of Max overtake the SC, what the actual fuck. Only two ways to handle that situation and Masi chose the 3rd. We can disagree on the Turn 6 decision but the bottom line is that Lewis makes up the time and/or position easily. No reason for the race to be decided in this way. No fucking reason at all...

And at the last possible moment, right into a restart. I'm stoked that the race didn't end under yellow, and I'm not going to shed a single tear for Mercedes. But how the fuck will that stand under scrutiny?

December 12, 20214 yr What difference does that make?There wouldn’t have been time to restart the race. It would have finished under yellow. Massi telling Toto that it’s for racing is shit.

December 12, 20214 yr I like Sainz. Seems like a good guyOne of the best out there. If McLaren can’t contend I’d really like to see the Smooth Operator go for the championship.
December 12, 20214 yr 1 minute ago, XYZ said: What difference does that make? If they had done it earlier, the race still restarts with Max on Lewis’ tailpipes. Just the inconsistency and springing it on the drivers at the last minute. Announce early under safety car that, if time allows, they'll let lapped traffic through and restart the race. No one would have issue with that. Instead, they announced lapped traffic wouldn't be let through, changed their minds at the last minute, and sped threw the normal process.
December 12, 20214 yr What difference does that make? If they had done it earlier, the race still restarts with Max on Lewis’ tailpipes.No, there wouldn’t have been enough time to do it the normal way and the race would have ended under SC. They made one decision, then changed it, but then changed on the fly once again, and started the race once only the cars in front of Max had gone, but not the rest. Obviously the title battle is most important, but it also fucks with other constructors fighting each other too, since they were fighting two different restarts essentially, because some cars started on the lead lap, and some didn’t. It’s a fuck.

I just want more teams in contention. I think this year was a great start to that. I usually like to see Germans win but the gap between Mercedes and the rest was not good for the sport.

December 12, 20214 yr What a farce. I can't believe a bureaucrat would just make up an arbitrary decision on a whim to decide a championship. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to watch college football.
December 12, 20214 yr In reality - if Merc had made some better decisions earlier in the year, it would not have come down to this.

December 12, 20214 yr I think Masi might be in some deep shit for real though. Offseason is going to be a shit show.

December 12, 20214 yr I think Masi might be in some deep shit for real though. Offseason is going to be a shit show. He just handed Liberty Media a killer ending, clicks upon clicks for F1 sites and even more attention for Netflix. He’s fine.
December 12, 20214 yr “Yeah, let’s not stick with post race coverage of the most exciting F1 season in years. Let’s go to…,a simulcast of a show airing on espnews.” -some fuck in Bristol.

December 12, 20214 yr They should have pitted Hamilton when Max came in the first time. That was a lot of laps to hope there wouldn't be another safety car that would close the gap.

Maybe but that's a really hard (maybe impossible) decision to make when you're running away with the lead. IMO Can't do shit about the SC
December 12, 20214 yr Yep, keep painting me as a Mercedes fan for some silly reason.Sounds like something a Mercedes fan would say.

December 12, 20214 yr Quote Once the last lapped car has passed the leader the safety car will return to the pits at the end of the following lap. Neither of those points were followed.
December 12, 20214 yr Bottas also didn’t do shit while Perez helped cut the lead by 4-5 seconds. Those seconds mattered.

December 12, 20214 yr Cant really feel bad for hamilton and mercedes. Still has 8 trophies and will retire as the most successful racer on history. F1 proves once again to be more drama than actual competition. And the Item of the Day is totos headset for managing to stay in 1 piece.
