"I think Verstappen has got to think about his driving standards. They were too much today. There’s aggressive, determined, feisty racing and then there’s what we saw this evening, which was too much."
"Lewis is a clean racer... His record speaks for itself. He doesn’t look to win championships by taking his rivals off the road."
- Martin Brundle



"Lewis Hamilton is one of the cleanest wheel-to-wheel racers we’ve seen. He leaves space; he plays the long game. Max’s approach is entirely different—it’s 'my corner or a crash.' He puts the onus entirely on Hamilton to avoid the accident." - Jolyon Palmer

"Max hasn't changed. That is his DNA. He goes out there to intimidate and force people off. Lewis has won seven world titles by being fast, brilliant, and fair. He doesn't need those tactics." - Johnny Herbert

2021 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix (The Braking Incident)
During a volatile race, Verstappen was instructed to give a position back to Hamilton. He slowed down drastically in the middle of the track, resulting in a rear-end collision. 10-second post-race time penalty and 2 penalty points
"In deciding to penalise the driver of Car 33 [Verstappen], the key point for the Stewards was that the driver of Car 33 then braked suddenly (69 bar) and significantly, resulting in 2.4g deceleration... the sudden braking by the driver of Car 33 was determined by the Stewards to be erratic and hence the predominant cause of the collision."

2021 Italian Grand Prix (Monza Crash)
Verstappen attempted an ultra-late move up the inside of Hamilton at the Rettifilo chicane. His car launched over the Mercedes, taking both out of the race. 3-place grid penalty for the subsequent race.

The stewards officially validated the pundit narrative that Verstappen forces situations where a crash is inevitable unless the other driver yields completely:

2024 Austrian Grand Prix (Moving Under Braking)
While defending the lead against Lando Norris, Verstappen repeatedly changed his line deep into the braking zone of Turn 3, ultimately causing a collision that punctured both cars. 10-second time penalty and 2 penalty points.

2021 British Grand Prix (Silverstone Collision)
In arguably their most severe crash, Hamilton attempted to overtake Verstappen up the inside of the 180 mph Copse corner. They touched, and Verstappen suffered a 51G impact. 10-second time penalty served during his pit stop.
Crucially, the stewards did not rule that Hamilton's driving was erratic or malicious. Instead, they judged that he missed his geometric apex, making him "predominantly" rather than "wholly" at fault

2021 Brazilian Grand Prix (No Further Action on Max)
Verstappen aggressively pushed Hamilton entirely off the track at Turn 4 while defending the lead. Hamilton avoided a crash only by driving wide into the tarmac run-off area
Commentators like Jolyon Palmer used this exact case study to prove that Hamilton's clean nature saves championships. The telemetry showed Verstappen didn't even attempt to make the corner himself, relying entirely on Hamilton blinking and steering wide to keep both cars in the race.

And so on, and so forth.

This coming from retard Coulthard who was so retarded that in the pouring rain he almost killed Michael Schumacher :ROFL:
Whats next, info from Crofty
 
I have questioned people's IQ level many times on this thread.
But man you just can't make this stuff up.
Giving evidence in support of a Brit Hamilton by quoting........... wait for it
Damon Hill, Martin Brundle, David Coultard, Jolyon Palmer, Johnny Herbert.

Stupidest thing I read all year, its almost funny.

I don't like DC, but he was spot on with that. The only people in the whole world that cannot see that is the Max-ines. The Max fan girls are blind to his aggression.
 
Max just drives according to the regulations. If he oversteps, he will get a penalty. The other drivers need to educate themselves.

Exactly what George did in last weeks qualifying, yet many (including myself) thought he was a a-hole for the way he drove.

That's an issue with the regulations that needs to be sorted.

In this case George abused a situation where he could see a marshal made a mistake. And of all the drivers on track he is the one constantly harping on about safety, yet when it benefited him he didn't mind storming pass a stricken car with a driver in it. Had it been any other driver he would have been very vocal around how unsafe it was. Max is the same, pushes other divers off but is very vocal when others does the same to him.

He drove according to the regulations. It meant pole and a race win. You and I may not agree that it was safe, but he drove to the regulations and I cannot fault him for that.

Dunno hey, he lifted and was securely on the track. I doubt very very much he was being reckless.

Maybe, Max also thought he was securely on track until he wasn't. It takes a split second for something to go wrong. There could have been a situation like in Monaco where they crashed because of the track, there was no way for George to know. It's just hypocritical to bleat on about safety and then disregard it when it benefits you.
 
Everytime I grow to like LH he comes with these kind of statements.


Speaking ahead of the British GP, Hamilton threatened to miss the LEGO F1 race.

“It’s the most dangerous part of the weekend,” he told PlanetF1.com and other media outlets on Thursday.

“So I let Charles [Leclerc] drive last time, and it was just hilarious watching everyone crashing into each other.

“So I don’t know whether or not I’ll be in the LEGO car this year.”

How dare he.
 
Hahaha true story for both above. It's just like such a killjoy/ps..y move. I mean you are in a sport of 350kph plus and you don't want to do the Lego race. Would you ever hear that in motoGP
