My view on the race for silverstone that is racing for you on any track. Nascar is the same. You wonder why there are crashes on all race tracks?
For this simply reason.
All drivers want to win.
What do you think hamilton should of done?
Let him drive aggressively the way he has in all other races and let him blow by him AGAIN?!
Nahhh wayyy!
He did what was expected from him and it won him the race.
Plain and simple.
If hamilton let verstappen over take him to avoid touching wheels he would be viewed as a pussy driver and get grilled by mercedes.
Might as well even give up on the rest season and just hand this verstappen the trophy himself.
And how would Hamilton have been viewed if Verstappen had serious, like really serious injuries? I think there is a red line you should keep in mind for any sport. Maybe even more so in Formula 1 because an accident can potentially be deadly or change your life forever. The fact that the FIA gave Hamilton a penalty does at least prove that he was to blame. I would always prefer to win championships with my opponent also finishing the race. If he now kicks him out a second time and wins the race that would just be sad from a formula 1 fan's perspective.
