Lewis worked out how to combat that dive bombing crap in 2021, he attempted to turn in to the corner, then at the last moment when Verstappen came charging through had to turn away to avoid contact, doing that made verstappen look wreckless, reason why Verstappen was getting the penalties, very smart, if you do a Norris and overtake off track, the stewards will use that as an excuse to let Verstappen off
Did you watch that season? Because Max got a single penalty in Jeddah, otherwise what you're saying is complete fiction. He didn't get penalized in Brazil where it was easily at it's worst. Considering Abu Dhabi was the last race and he was still getting waxed by divebombs, running off the track and gaining a 3 second advantage from that. I don't think he ever figured it out LOL
@@flyaway6671 everything else before was dirty and reckless from max but the abu dhabi one in the last lap was clean both stayed on the circuit max just forced hamilton into a wider line there maybe hard but still clean
@@ΜανοςΦραντζας nothing about that last lap was clean considering the race should have finished under saftey car but michael massi fucked hamilton.... as admitted to by the FIA after the fact
@@Agdem_@Agdem_ What do you say about the 2015 and 2016 seasons? He pushed Nico many times. Second, for seven years, he drove an engine-dominated car without any challenge, so everyone said good things about him. Since 2022, how many incidents has he been involved in? He has got plenty as well. We will see the next session when he will be in a Ferrari, and if the car is as good as it is right now, you will witness how many times he will push people off track when defending.
Lewis Hamilton doesn't have the luxury of being just another angry black man. He has no choice but to keep quiet, remain dignified and rise above the fray. I hope he tells all when he retires. His book should be a blockbuster.
Great work. The reason he can now is because everyone else is talking about it. Something they didn't think would happen and brings 2021 into the forefront
Lewis is very aware that he needs to be an example for the world, and he does it brilliantly. He wants to go down in history as a "good" person, and someone who always does the right thing. I really like his attitude and I hope he does well at Ferrari.
Exactly, Lewis is, that’s why in the original uncut version he talked about how Max uses the current rules to its maximum potential. Hate the rules, not the drivers.
The regulations are clear; the fact that the stewards don't apply them when Max is involved, points to the ongoing corruption (let's call it what it is) in F1.
Mate don't make others the victims and Max the evil guy. It happens to all racers, and Lewis has benefited from the lack of consistency within FIA penalties too. Don't blame the player blame the game. To me half of thoise rules should be in the bin and let them race.
@ramarkble101 Max, dives up inside forcing a driver off the track, goes off himself - no penalty. Russell, dives up inside on same corner, forces another driver off the track, keeps his car on track - penalty. Absolute proof.
... The penalties do apply to Max. He has been punished multiple times for aggressive driving. There is a clear issue with the, "ahead at the apex" rule because it basically makes you invulnerable as long as you don't make contact in the corner. Max is following the rules and pushing the limits of the sport, as everyone should. Why do we have to put a bias on it like all the drivers don't do it?
Why not show the entire video in which he also said Max is just using the current rules to it's maximum potential? I hate when people do this to create a narrative.,
Stella said this in austria! He said himself that the regulations need to be clarified because Max has been doing this shit for years such as in 2021 with lewis.
Even before 2021 I remember Leclerc cut the corner under pressure from Lewis in Imola 2019, he gained a huge advantage of staying ahead and winning the race and got away with it, but when he did the same thing with Perez in Suzuka 2022 he got the penalty! It seems like any driver racing Lewis can do whatever he wants 🤔
Monza, not Imola. In Monza Leclerc cut the corner and rejoined the track wildly and got the win, in Montreal earlier that same year Vettel went wide and rejoined wildly and got a penalty and the victory taken away from him.
Amazing I have exactly the same ideas concerning what behaviour Lewis should during those last races. 😂 It has become such a mess with Mercedes, that I only hope he keeps safe. 🙏
??? The same exact thing happened to Russel and he brought the car from a pit-lane start to a P6 finish... why do your standards work differently for Hamilton? His entire job is to get on top of the car's balance and drive it to it's limit, no matter how difficult the performance window of the car is. He made a driver error and ended up in the gravel trap, it's as simple as that. We don't make these kind of excuses towards any other team/driver pairing, why do we do it for Hamilton at Merc? Absolutely insane fanbase that knows nothing about sports.
@@Agdem_Not really a driver error though was it? He didn't carry too much speed, didn't turn too aggressively, he just turned in normally. Same thing happened to Russell in quali at the same corner. It's pretty clear it was the car this time. Even Toto said it was the car, and he's not exactly been glowing about Lewis this season. So unless you think the same thing that happened to both drivers is sheer coincidence, then I don't know what to tell you.
Max does that all the time he pushes people out on the corner if you notice he doesn't turn in properly he carries on straight then turns he is the most unsportsman like person I have ever known Max.
Ever heard the phrase, "Don't hate the player, hate the game?" -- The stewards aren't doing their job, plain and simple. Max found a loophole in the rules that everyone is free to use. Why people are specifically mad at him is beyond me. It's not "unsportsman-like" when it's within the rules. As long as you are ahead at the apex, you are basically invulnerable to a penalty as long as no one makes contact. That isn't Max's fault, it's the FIA's for not being able to define rules properly. It's like ya'll have never been in a sports/competitive environment before. The teams are bending and stretching rules every day to gain an advantage, it's not only RB and MAX, put your bias away.
@@Agdem_ thanks for nothing. According to you the sport should revert to bumper cars, just so you can keep lovin’ max and his insane driving tactics that are childish and dangerous. But loophole! Loophole! Max is so clever that he found a way to drive on top of other cars, brake check and swerve in the straight and constantly drive every driver off the track, dangerously. But at least he’s given you a reason to care, about one driver, for an obvious reason.
Good point. He will soon be driving for a competing team. Why should Hamilton continue to help Mercedes develop their car when they are not prioritizing his success on track? I guess that wouldn't be in his character
... an upgraded car would be prioritizing his success on track? Yes? LOL Like c'mon man. Sometimes upgrades don't work, it happens to every team. it's not like they are sabotaging his results. Same exact thing just happened to Max for like a 6 race stint after they started developing the car in the wrong direction. You don't see him quitting and going to AM. It's also the driver's job to help give feedback and develop the car, which he Lewis is contractually obligated to do. If he stopped trying out of pettiness they would replace him with Mick, or Kimi because I'm sure that would be violation of what he signed on for.
Finally someone saying it as it really is, thanks to Norris and Maclaren not accepting the penalty more people are willing to speak out and to say what the truth is about drivers instead of always running the myth of someone being outstanding instead of just an outright bully
Currently, Hamilton only formulated an opinion. If what Verstappen did is within the rules, then you cannot blame him for using the rules to the fullest. If the rules have to be changed, then that still doesn't change the situation that we had in Austin. McLaren can protest, but if it is within the rules they have no ground to stand on. And Verstappen is not bullying... He is just using the rules to their limits. That is what Norris misses. Norris is a very good driver, but not a great driver as he is not going to the limits. That is what all great drivers did, like Senna, Vettel, Schumacher, Hamilton and so on...
@@BlueIced256Whatever he is doing its not racing. Its how you end racing by pushing competitors off track. Its disgusting and should have been banned long ago
@@daverudait is racing you you obviously have no understanding of how track limits works or how attacking in defending works you should probably stick to NASCAR so you only have to worry about the cars turning left and then you won’t have to worry about anybody running anybody off the track if that makes you oh so sad bozo 😂
Do we realise Norris already overtook max way before the corner? Which makes max the aggressor having to overtake Lando from 150m board…think about it…this changes everything😮
Nice of LH to discuss this ... a pity he's forgotten about his own tactics when he was battling it out with Rosberg in 2016 .... or his taking out of Albon, not once but twice ...
Regardless of who you support, the one thing that is now blatantly clear is that the rules need tightening and applying consistently to avoid them being abused. That way, there wouldn’t be these subjective views depending on who you support
The British press just can't handle the fact that Max is a better driver than all of their British drivers, so they keep on complaining and insinuating Max is a villain.
Gifted his first championship Cost cap breach Asymmetric braking Car lowering device Fia favourite driver, how come he's not winning anymore if he's the best 🤔🤣
If there was a wall at that turn instead of a wide run out then Verstappen either crashes into Norris and gets penalised or he gets overtaken. The run off should not be allowed to be used as a defensive tactic
It’s a good point. Max exploits the rule that you’re not allowed to overtake off track by essentially out braking himself on the inside of the guy trying to pass and forcing them both off.
Is the update really useless if when on slh44s car in sq3 he was about to qualify p1 for the sprint race or is it that when a particular setup is on the car the updates don't work.
What a short memory Sir Lewis has. 2016 isn’t that long ago and he and Nico were read the riot act from Niki Lauda when they couldn’t stop from crashing into each other
Max is just using the Rules to his advantage, you will have to get over it until Regulations change. 99% of formula one fans dont know the rules or anything about the sport (not deminishing just the facts) . Its the same when a team is forced to change something „illegal“ on the Car, If its Red Bull every Mclaren,Mercedes,Ferrari fan is like „they are cheating, its an illegal Car“ and 2 Months later its the other Way around and another team is thrown under the bus for cheating. Lando should have just stayed behind and overtook on the next Lap, not leaving it up to the Sewards. That being said i also think the rules need changing so we can have cleaner and „fairer“ battles on track in the Future. One thing that Leclerc btw does really well against Verstappen is breaking earlier and focusing on better Exits which often times resulted in overtakes maybe Lando should think about breaking early when Verstappen releases which is easier said then done tho.
The point that slh44 made regarding the driver being overtaken stepping off he brakes or even accelerating after the driver overtaking places his car in a clear overtaking position that such behavior is dangerous. If that is done to the childish 1 when he is on the outside overtaking because he wouldn't do what lando did them the childish 1 could be punted of into the barrier for a 50g crash. Then red bull will want the driver on the inside to be penalized for doing what the childish 1 always does.
Na Lewis did not mention Max Once, he blamed driving standards, Max is just using the rules to the maximum, he is the best person at doing that, when/if the FIA adjust these then Max will still run them to the maximum too, that’s why he is one of the best ever! The only person who can match him on that grid still is Lewis, who wouldn’t be bullied, it’s a shame their cars are not still comparable so we can see if the new rules work! Why wouldn’t they use Lewis that way, yes it is a win win, why would they care !
As for Lewis now, loosing races bag qualifying. It’s typical of every race team. When there driver is leaving especially there #1 driver, they always get dropped to #2 or lower and get used as the experiment driver.
Yep. Welcome to Mercedes in 2024 where they seem not to give two figs about Lewis. Just using him AGAIN this weekend as guinea pig. Lewis is either playing their game, too trusting, or plain naive imo. Can't believe I'm actually looking forward to him going to Ferrari now. Although I remain concerned about them as an outfit but hopefully the pieces of the puzzle will come together, although Aston have a really great engineering team now. Hope Fred has something cooking and Loic Serra is a good signing.
That's xenophobic af. English fans? I'm certainly NOT English, yet I agree with Lewis and I staunchly hate Max's "racing" tactics. It's not racing, it's unfair.
Let's be honest, this was always going to be an awkward season for the MErcedes/Hamilton performance. I don't know why they're not just honest about it. None of this sabotage speculation would even be a thing and both parties would have a clear stance on how they operate with each other.
Verstappen drives within the rules. F*ck unsportsmanlike, if it's legal and get you ahead you use it. Every top f1 driver did this in the history of the sport. Lewis is right that it has to change, but until it does complaining about verstappen just makes you a whiner. Also, don't change the rules, just put gravel traps there.
It's called being a professional. Which he's paid a lot of money to do. If he did what you advised, I'd just put Kimi in and bench Hamilton, plus the team has the data so...
All these rules have been carrified after 2021. There is No point of changing rules, if you change the rules, Max will still adapt to rules. Max has the ability to drive on the edge of the rulebook. Just rewatch the battle at the usgp. You will see max is the one who determines where Lando goes.
I find it incredible how many people bring up silverstone like lewis tried to kill max. Thats the horner and marko narrative. Rewatch palmer albon etc talking about the incident, its about if the whole thing was even penalty-worthy. The ideas some people have about this incident are insane
The rules are bizarre and make no sense to the casual watcher, if you force another driver off the track you should lose all your rights to the rule book unless the opponent is in the gravel trap due to being left insufficient space. Should this happen you as the cause should be disqualified, simple. This dive bombing is ridiculous any rational person can see it yet the FIA have sat on their hands for years and not outlawed it. Max is a fantastic driver and if the rules clearly outlawed it he would not do it. Personally I think the rules do outlaw it.
Had Norris backed out ppl would say he is a pu$$y or a crybaby or only give sympathy and pity on him just like they did for lewis in 2021 and if you do what lando did you get penalised 😂😂😢
I mean everyone supports the underdogs, that time max was the underdog thats why he got supported by the people now Lando is the underdog so he is getting supported
How many 7 time(maybe more and remember 30% driver) goats you know in f1?LH is ok right?goats are rare & make their own luck😊. Luck=preparation+opportunity
I remember when Lewis push the others out of the track and no one punish him... in fact it was not rare the other one was punished, and now he came to talk about Max, wich does those moves inside the rules. Why the others dont do it also? Maybe because they cant be able to manage the car in that way? This guy (Lewis Hamilton) is the biggest fake in history of Formula 1. Also this interview is not complete...
I said this somewhere else: There are 100% of the time x2 drivers involved in this type of incident. There is always 1 driver involved in this type of incident 97% of the time. I've since amended the 2nd figure by x2 points.
What a lulu fanboi crap. When max does something there is a rules change right away and when Lewis does something nothing changes in 20 years. Where is the Lu Lu back tap rule. So nasty and even doing every season it’s a “race incident”. It’s just another way for him to cry about 2021 again.
Oh ffs they all do it. Hamilton did it countless times to Nico and various others during his stint as the most dominant driver in F1. They all do it folks, they get paid to drive the damn car and do their level best. This ain't little league.
He is the face of formula one,current champion cannot sell the sport ,the management of f1 cant put him in a press conference ,just might tell everyone to fuck off.
Need a new section in the rules called ‘max made us need these new rules. He doesn’t care and could ruin the sport if everyone started driving like him’. Subtitle the section ‘it’s all Jos and Horner’s fault’. Sub-sub title ‘max fans suuuuuuck’
It’s so funny because he and all great champions drove with the same driving tactics. It seems we block that from our collective memory when it’s not our color or when the champion doesn’t drive anymore.
That is how the greats of the earth drive and fight, sir Lewis:-) And that is exactly why you were also defeated by Max Verstappen even in a lesser car! A Senna and Michael Schumacher also always got those reproaches from the losers. And that is also exactly the reason why sir Lewis Hamilton is never mentioned by the professionals in that row of Senna, Schumacher and Verstappen!
This is nonesense, running cars off the track in defence is not great racing no matter who it is. Verstappen is an awesome driver but for me a ‘great’ is someone who’s desire to win does not cannibalise their desire to win fairly. If there had been a brick wall on the outside of that turn then Norris makes the pass or both of them have a huge crash. Verstappen should not take advantage of a runoff on the outside and the rules should not permit it more importantly.
Verstappen suck up fan boy tries to look intelligent. You failed! Verstappen and Red Bull are cheats plain and simple. Bib trick, brake trick, breaking cost cap, etc, etc, etc . . . Jos, "Hey baby you look good in those spanks!" Woman, "Go away creep." Jos, "I'm driving over you in the parking lot!" See Max that's how it's done, son! Now go race like that!
Lol the "lesser" car talk again. If I had a nickel for every time I heard that. No idea how people think it was a worse car. Easily the better quali car as well by a comfortable margin. Even Perez finished near Bottas and looks how he is now. Nothing has changed really but the car and he was outqualified by Sargeant in a William's for god's sake multiple times this year. Almost level pegging from Canada to Belgium iirc.
Yeah first of all who even overtakes on that corner it was lewis's corner and max drove into him not lewis fault but max fault as well way too aggressive and keep crying 😢😂😢😂😂
Am going to say it again silverstone max hit lewis the cock suckers at fia gave lewis a penality, my only regret was max should have broken both hands and legs he wouldnt be doing the same shit today i am certain he wouldnt.
