    It still irks me that people think those upset by the 2021 finale are so because Hamilton didn’t get his 8the world title. In all fairness, Red Bull made the right call to pit at the SC, and if the race would have restarted correctly would have had a fair shot at winning.

    Problem is that Massi threw away the rulebook by letting only the cars between Hamilton and Verstappen overtake. If he wanted an epic last 4 lap, then red flag the race, let everyone change tires and see two of the greatest drivers ever in F1 duke it out on track.

    Now we got a sour end to an epic season, with many people turned off by the sport and there will always be a footnote with Max’s first WDC.
