Yet Hamilton got a penalty for having a gap in the rear wing a couple of millimetres bigger than it should have been

It's all fake really

I never said that the cars make little difference. Where did you get that from?

I said the best drivers get the BEST cars. I’ve clearly said that they are the better cars.

It’s easier to win in a Mercedes or a Red Bull but you only get to drive them if you’re good enough.

cont... a cruel sport but they are in the main looked after well. What about horses that haven't made it as racehorses sold to other countries for meat though that's being looked into or horses who've served their usefulness. They are animals when it comes down to it. What happens to greyhounds when their racing days are over? You can go on.

That’s going to happen even more because the sale of racehorses into the food chain has now been banned in the UK

So, just ship them across the channel

Ban MV for 3 races IMO. He's not a world champion. He doesn't have the whole package. he's just a fast driver.

I’m not sure what the most likely punishment would be.

Lose a few places/points maybe?

More hype and possibly corrupt rule bending to ensure that “ the best man wins” to get the best financial outcome for the “sport” and those “ investing” in it

It’s WWF in cars

Just watched the footage MV knew exactly what he was doing turning into the corner. I would be surprised if he doesn't get some sort of penalty. 3 grid places the most likely In hindsight max prob should have taken the 5 seconds pen in the race.
