Great post Matt. Personally I thought (still do now I have seen more footage) racing incident with slightly more max fault.Racing incident, slightly weighted to being LH fault.
Standard 10 sec penalty, the same as is given to every other driver in similar circumstances.
LH has won championships in the past by understanding that discretion is the better part of valour.
When you’ve got a decent points lead you need to protect that. When someone is climbing all over your wing on every corner then maybe it’s an idea to think about staying in the race over staying in position.
Christian Horner can say “no one puts a wheel up the inside there” until he’s blue in the face but they were almost side by side dragging up the straight, MV got ahead on the breaks on the outside.
In reality no one gets around the outside on that corner without running way off the road. LH couldn’t just disappear. He took his 10 secs without whining and then dug deep and won the race.
Life sucks, get a f...... helmet.
Whilst I do understand Horner's adrenaline fueled anger (from which he can't back down now) (I do think Toto would if the boot was on the other foot)
I do think he needs to review the footage and think he was lucky Hamilton got a penalty. (Not that it mattered in the end but he does get points on his licence.
I think he needs to wonder Perez only got 5 seconds for the second incident two weeks ago . Once was enough but twice should have been 10.
