Laugh at the deluded Crashtappen fanboys
It's clear this site has a love interest with Max to declare. Funny thing though, ever since Max won all this site and most pundits, press, FiA hierarchy are talking about is Hamilton. I think this is his ultimate revenge - Max "won" the championship and no-one outside of the Netherlands or fansites like this one cares. All eyes are on Hamilton. Without Hamilton saying a word. More has been written about Kimi retiring than Verstappen's maiden championship. More has been written about Rosberg ?. Hamilton's performance of the season in Brasil is talked about more than Max's "achievement". Max was the youngest ever F1 driver in Melbourne 2015 (a race he didn't manage to finish), and while not the youngest to finish at the top of the points table, you would have expected a bigger deal to be made out of it. That he isn't taking the No. 1 off of Hamilton also denies Max himself some gratification and helps stop an "changing of the guard" narrative. Hamilton keeps the number he had before. Instead, Hamilton is the talk of the town. Will he or won't he? Will the FiA score an own goal by punishing Hamilton's rule-breaking non attendance at the gala, while they themselves broke theirv own sporting rules. And Max, oh well done mate, slap on the back, see you next season. I reckon Hamilton will be back. If nothing else because he will want to end with a bang, on a positive note, not following a dodgy decision. The season was a terrible one for fans of the sport, though. Unless the FiA change their approach; increase transparency and a willingness to treat drivers with respect, I can't see him staying for more than one more season, win or lose.18-01-2022 23:01
