2018 Formula One Italian Grand Prix

I'll chip in.

I like racing within the rules. Räikkönen v Hamilton was awesome (and don't forget Round 1 between them earlier in the race. Passing and re-passing with zero contact, both on track).

Contact it was from Bottas just how you see it

Verstappen: "He touched me on the left wheel". Well, Olav Mol (Dutch commentator) doesn't agree with Verstappen. So do I, sorry.

Haha because there was not enough gap that is racing

Where crashed Max today? He deffend his line there was no crash

Yet another optritian request

This is the moment of contact. There is no room for Bottas.

 

[motoliser]

Max, just go back to School will ya.

No room?? Realy? He is not on the grass

Well, how much room does he need? So pushing an opponent offtrack is racing?

There is no room for Bottas.

It's exactly a 'car width', but not enough to avoid contact.That's Verstappen's problem; avoiding contact.

Not smart from Bottas go out side because there is not to much space

 

[muzikant]

Not smart from Bottas go out side because there is not to much space

And that is racing

 

[keto95]

He has the right to be there without being hit.

And that is racing

Not really.

 

[romanos]

He was on the white line, for god's sake. This is a *non-contact* sport. I feel bad that I have to remind you of this. It's not good racing, good drivers drive precisely.

 

[muzikant]

Both drivers are on the track see no gras

 

[keto95]

Both drivers are on the track see no gras

Indeed I see no grass, but I saw contact.

Good day for Max haters

Stupid Bottas think he can pass him on the outside. Not! Max is a racer like all great racers That is the problem with Bottas with a faster Mercedes

Bad day for the realism haters. Your blinders are still functioning ok.

 

[Koen Verlinde]

Contact it was from Bottas just how you see it

That's the issue, almost nobody sees it like you do, and that strengthens your belief that you are right while all the others aren't.

A feeling I can actually understand, but let's be honest, being blind about Max his faults makes you blind for his good moves as well, as you now think that any move he makes is some kind of Senna/Schumacher level of awesomeness.

It isn't.

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

He is on the white line. That is the track limit. If he were to turn more left and thus avoid Verstappen crossing to the left, he would've left the track - and Verstappen would've been the one that forced him there.

It's exactly a 'car width', but not enough to avoid contact.That's Verstappen's problem; avoiding contact.

Well, as it was contact, I'd argue he got less than a car width. Regardless, it's either avoidable contact or not giving enough room when moving back from defending - both not legal, so that doesn't really matter

I really should care about those opinions at RaceDepartment said no F1 driver ever...

Always fun to read driver's comments on certain situations:

Some of them really need to look into the mirror more frequently.
