Lewis made two obvious mistakes. Both times payed for it. He probably should have payed more - that's another topic. Here we talking about an obvious mistake and obvious penalty. How on earth can one go with it without a penalty!?
It’s completely to do with bias aha. See in turkey where lando pushed at least 3 drivers off the quote “rubbing is racing” is applied but when lance pushed Danny off in Austria it was apparently dirty
In fairness to Leclerc, Albon did run out wide and left the entry open for a split second so Leclerc went for it as you’d expect any racing driver would but Albon immediately closed up the line and Charles had to back out pretty much as soon as he’d gone for it which meant he grabbed the inside left, unsettling the balance and throwing the rear out, but had no room to collect the slide because he was so deep into the corner. Most likely he was going to get past Albon on the run down into Turn 7 anyway and even if he pulled some shithousery of a defence Leclerc probably would’ve just Batista bombed it down the inside, barged past and said cry about it
He late braked and turned left to dive up the inside, but the rear of the car started to slide a bit so he corrected it and clipped Albons rear. Not a big deal
@@shona5512 Leclerc just turned in with too much speed. There was no gap to dive into anymore. These things happen, but this isn't fair racing. It shows he's not totally in control. Reckless... like he was this season too.
@@nickvds6826 You take the risks necessary to win. It's part of racing. Sometimes, it doesn't always pan out, but when there's even a slight opportunity you have to get your elbows out, you don't get anywhere in racing by yeilding to others. Obviously, you don't ram people off the track, but if contact is made, then it is what it is. Charles is pushing the shitbox of a Ferrari to its absolute limits this year to extract the most out of it.. He's not getting careless, he's just taking the risks that he needs to do to get the car into podium places.
@@shona5512 Are you seriously comparing driving risky with a bad car in general to driving risky in position fights? Btw that risk was going for a gap that didn't exist and could only end in contact, which hurt Albon more than Leclerc.
That wasn't sensational at all. Remember watching this live. That hit unsettled albon's exit heavily. Nothing sensational about it. Ask me? A 5 sec penalty for Leggie boi
Dumbest comment I have ever seen. The racing was perfectly clean and exciting, with only a minor mistake from Leclerc in the heat of battle, which is completely normal under moments of intense pressure. IMO, 5 second penalties should almost never be handed out unless a dangerous racing maneuver is carried out of which this was clearly not.
@@jackcrola1076 It's not racing if you go for a stupid move and compromise the person you're racing against to get ahead. It's bad sportsmanship and should've been penalized for it.
@@Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilic5 it wasnt even minor damage and it probably gave him more straightline speed considering the 1/3 lap theyd been racing on wouldve been straights
@3213232 1231223 idc that albon lost his seat. After that performance I don't really get why they even keep him as reserve. But Leclerc just rammed albon that race. Leclerc didn't deserve to win with that dirty move
@@marcoroberts9462 but you need to know that the damage doesn't really affect much to the car aerodynamic or downforce, also leclerc just need to safely pass sector 3, but that contct did ruin Albon's exit speed.
@@KaoruSF no. you don't "bump and run". it's not a clean move, you don't dive bomb when you're behind the other car and they close the apex of the corner
@@aimanbhargava8083 bump and run is a classic racing move and it's used quite a lot in racing. not always the cleanest but if he wasn't penalized then it's legal :)
@Nic Lazzari tbh I agree with you on that, it looks like he had oversteer on exit and just bumped him, he was just trying to squeeze in. as for the bump thing, as long as it doesn't end in damage or someone crashing or losing a lot of time I don't think it's too dirty. we do it in karting all the time, a small bump to the rear to move the other driver off line and open up space. nobody loses time, no damage, all good.
*Charles after winning championship* crews: "excellent job, mate. Brilliant job. Congrats. You did an excellent job, mate." Charles: "No, I did a terrible job. I am stupid. So stupid."
I like Charles but that wasn’t really on, shoved albon wide and killed his exit speed. I’m all for hard racing and leaving little room etc, but that’s just PlayStation shit right there.
NO. Because the rules is different. If you adoring PENALTY, go to F1. They have plenty penalty for Max verstappen moves from 2015 to 2020 that his fans complaint too harsh for him.
Albon out? NO, right? So, it is a fair fight. If Albon fans think it is torpedo, Albon car must be DNF like Vettel did to Max in Silverstone 2019. Right? ...or like Daniel Ric did to Max when Max blocking his way in 2018.....And these drivers will never learn.....
People saying he fucked up Albon’s exit. He did, and that’s what makes the difference between a champion and just a driver. He took a big risk and it payed off. If anybody was in Leclerc’s shoes you’d do the same. If not, then you are not a real racer.
Yeah, you are not a real racer if you don't crash into someone and overtake them, because they almost spun. I don't know if you are being sarcastic or not but what the fuck have I just read.
@@maarcoo97 that’s not the point im trying to make. Im trying to say that he took a chance. Albon didn’t almost spin. Yes Leclerc was on the wrong. But tell me would you do the same if you were in that situation?
@@Maxistanca if he got the oversteer it was his fault. So if you won the championship you can hit the others just cause you don’t have anything to loose?
@@gilmarbarros42 he's more aggressive bcuz he have nothing to lose I mean this... If he was fighting for the champ he would be more carefull bcuz every point scored was important
I don't know anything about racing or F1. So there's F1, F2, F3, F4? Can someone skip all and go straight to F1? I obviously don't know anything about kart racing either. Could someone go from driving karts straight to F1? I'm used to Canadian Ice Hockey where players get drafted from minors league to OHL>AHL>NHL but some skip leagues, can you at least skip leagues in racing?
its like you grow up man, you cant straight to run after born, its like you try ride 125cc motocycle race then go motogp it doesnt make sense cause the engine was so much different
In the past yes, like how Max Verstappen and Lance Stroll skipped F2, but since superlicence points regulation took place, I don't think it's that easy anymore
It might not be the cleanest move from Leclerc, but it worked. And tbf he was oversteering, that's why he hit Albon. You need to know the risks. For me, I am a fan of Michael Schumacher, but compared to what he did on race track sometimes or what Senna and Prost did in Suzuka 1990, Leclerc's move is quite harmless. And I know everyone makes mistakes (including Leclerc ofc) but he is not the only one. What about Verstappen, Vettel or other current F1 drivers? They also did stupid mistakes in their career. It's part of the game, as long as you are not trying to kill someone or deliberately end your opponent's race
@M Billa I am just saying my opinion about the incident. For me, it's not the cleanest move, but also not that bad as many people are seeing it. I am sorry 😅. I just find it interesting that we never talked about it before if it really was a dirty move and now, after Leclerc did some stupid moves, anyone is mad about it. And I am not even a huge fan of him. For me, it's nowhere near of a penalty.
@M Billa Yes I remember. For me the penalty was one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen because Seb had nowhere to go. But back then they were fighting even harder, e.g. 1990 in Suzuka
@M Billa so tell me. You are second place last lap and have only a few more turns to win the race. Do you go full send or do you just lay back. There is absolutely no way a true racing driver would lay back. You have to go with all you have. Leclerc had some over steer and over corrected which led to him hitting Albon. I don’t understand why people are so salty about this. It wasn’t the best move on Leclerc’s part but he took a big risk and it payed off. Champion Mentality. Nuff said.
@@ploppyjr2373 why oversteering is dirty drive? Dirty drive is pushing out of the circuit, crashing intentionally, bring yellow flag to keep a pole... This is racing
@@Maxistanca you’re forgetting that we aren’t talking about oversteer. How much you want it to, it has nothing to do with the conversation. He went for a gap that wasn’t there and because of his aggressive steering oversteered. So explain to me how that wasn’t his fault. He should’ve gotten a penalty but for some miraculous reason didn’t get one.
Leclerc is the better driver for sure but this was just dirty, if i was albon i wouldn’t have given him any room all the way to the corner so he would have no chance of taking the corner without cutting it
@@Heigxion i mean, Leclerc didnt deserve the win there. That was an overly aggressive move by him. Albon should've forced him off the corner, so it was compromised for Leclerc. He didnt do that, so he lost. Happy Leclerc is not doing these kind of things nowadays
@@philippegerondeau4351 Even if you are ahead, you cannot move more than two times over your rival's line. That's called weaving, which is illegal. Also, if Albon is ahead of Leclerc at that moment, that means he didn't take advantage of the bump, because the advantage is at the moment, not one straight ahead.
@@Heigxion He should have closed the door completely (obviously easier said than done). Him moving all the way to the left instead of leaving “some” space isn’t illegal. And I really don’t mind the touching before the straight as it is part of the sport but he clearly got an advantage but that’s besides the point.
@@Maxistanca Not about touching, it's about hitting someone in the back when he had no gaps to overtake there. NONE at all, he crashed into Albon, made Albon lose traction and therefore a worse exit, this was a corner right before the biggest straight in this circuit, so yeah, that crash had an impact and gave Leclerc an unfair udvantage, so... yes, a penalty. Touching and banging wheels slightly is one thing, crashing against someone's rear... No...
