That is SOOOOO f****** wrong

FIA gave Hamilton a freebie on lap 1 and Verstappen one on lap 57, think that sums it up perfectly.

Disagree - two totally different scenarios. Lap 1 Hamilton was forced off the track , no-one disputes that except Red Bull and at end of race, FIA (Massi) has a lot to answer - why he has made a decision that breaks their own usual rules.
Do not get me wrong, I applaud the fight from Max but a decision was made incorrectly with lapped cars and it made a difference which is not what they are there for. They are there to make sure the rules are not broken and they broke the rules themselves
and not only that - it was clear that Max was ahead of Lewis behind the safety car before it went off the track. That in normal circumstances is "hand back the position" --- just saying
EDIT - I look forward to next season and another strong battle

Valid arguments, but Max was ahead when Lewis went off, how did he give up the advantage but end up a second in front after lap 1? Awful decisions but you can't change the result, Red Bull weren't at fault for the bad decisions

I am not gonna get drawn into a massive discussion on this as the result is not gonna change but even the other drivers commentating agreed that Max left it too late to "lunge" in and force Lewis off the track - as he had nothing to lose. If they crashed - he won.
The stewards also said - no further action required
I hope Max enjoys his time as World Champion. Next year is another year and I look forward to it

Sorry for delay but I was waiting for any "backlash" from the controversial decision but looks like that might not happen - so here we go with final results for 2021

Overall Resuts
After a long battle for top spot between Mike and Eduardo, BIG congratulations to Mike as he manages to hold Eduardo off in the final couple of events to win the title for 2021.
My thanks to everyone who participated - we had some ups and downs but got there in the end so I hope you enjoyed it and I look forward to next season
