Incident aside that was a brilliant drive from Lewis there.
That stint after his pit stop was just phenomenal!

Lewis was not going to back down there and forced Max to make a choice…Max took the wrong choice by assuming g Lewis would back out of it.
Ramps up the championship up nicely when it was already getting spicy.

Max was ahead and had the Racing line which gives him priority going into the corner (Lewis was never ahead) , max adjusted his line to give Lewis room, Lewis went into the corner far to fast, missed the apex and hit max at full speed.I'm sorry but there's only one person to blame here IMO.Last edited by Gatecrasher; 19-07-2021 at 05:53 AM.

Hamilton also loses ground from turning in to where the apex is, suggesting he got out of it for a bit. Had he fully committed with the extra momentum he had then he would have hit the apex at least alongside Max.
Every bit a racing incident for me.

Hamilton now getting the same abuse Saka and Rashford got after the Euros . Not just a football problem , black sportsmen in any sport are going to get this **** it seems . It was a dick move by Hamilton but nothing Schumacher , prost , senna etc wouldn't have done .

It’s very clear that Max turns into Lewis. Sure you can argue it’s for Lewis to get out of the move to allow Max to turn in but the on board is very clear that Max goes to turn, sees Lewis and moves left before aggressively turning right again…the only problem for Max is that Lewis has not backed out and Max then steers right into Lewis.
I get Red Bulls argument that Lewis simply shouldn’t have been there but he was so Max could also have reacted to that and not turned in so aggressively (see Leclerc in same position at the end).
That of course would have let Lewis through and he simply wasn’t prepared to let Lewis do to him what he has done to many before.
Whatever way you see it though it added to an already feisty weekend and now results in even more bad blood between the two teams…which is exactly the stuff that makes for a classic season!

The roles were reversed almost perfectly into Copse and Verstappen turns in much more than Lewis did earlier in the lap and gave Lewis much less chance to back out.

The race stewards have given their decision. Hamilton was found guilty of causing the accident. Given they have access to more data than anyone here Hamilton was in the wrong. I'm not sure why anyone on here is so desperate to defend him.
Also interesting is that I've never heard either Hamilton or Toto being so hesitant, almost stuttering, when trying to explain their position. Both men are normally very assured when speaking to camera. They knew they were on dodgy ground.
I'm fairly certain there will be a few more similar incidents as the season continues.Space to let

Both drivers had the chance to prevent the collision and neither backed off. The fact that other drivers, with no loyalties or axe to grind (Leclerc and Alonso) have come out and put it down as a racing incident is telling for me.
In a sense this is the sort of thing we want to see (clearly without any injuries), it is pure theatre and adds to the interest. When Webber and Vettel were battling it out and coming to blows it was great entertainment, same with Alonso and Hamilton when they were at Maclaren.
Apart from the racist abuse, F1 will be delighted with this weekend I'm sure.

Toto was quite clear. He was adamant the regs supported his position.
The stewards decision is theirs alone…doesn’t mean I or anyone else needs to agree with it. In fact many punters, commentators and drivers have done just that.
I thought their decision a couple of weeks ago to penalise Lando when Perez went off the track on the outside when trying to overtake was wrong as well…In my opinion they are over policing the racing and giving penalties for stuff that should be considering racing incidents.

Karun Handchok gives a good analysis here. Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen collide in big British GP flashpoint with Red Bull out of the race | F1 News (skysports.com).
To me the critical point is that there was a car's width between Verstappen and the edge of the track, but Hamilton was missing the apex. Verstappen took the racing line while allowing that car's width and Hamilton was unwise to carry that speed into that corner in those circumstances.

Brilliant from Lewis today. He’s right in Verstappen’s head.
Not very street scary from Red Bull.

That’s was hilarious watching Hamilton starting the race on his own. What a huge mistake from Mercedes.

Overtaking doesn’t look very easy Ocon & Vettel have a good chance of winning this with a Williams slowing everyone down.

Hamilton's walking talking "inspirational" Instagram quote persona quickly falls away when he's up against someone like Alonso.
