Re: Reject of the Race - Brazil 2022
Has to be Team Verstappen for me. A silly, possibly even petulant, crash with Hamilton wouldn’t normally be enough to earn a nomination personally. However, our boy Max saved the best for last by refusing to adhere to team orders, pissing off his loyal number 2 in a big way. Not content with this, h...

Re: Reject of the Race - Mexico 2022
I personally think it was moot what strategy Merc went for. If they’d been a bit braver they could’ve at least spiced the race up a bit, but given the inherent pace advantage Verstappen has had this season over the Mercs I struggle to see how they could’ve beaten him regardless of strategy.

Since the fastest lap point was introduced, we’ve seen countless occasion...

Re: Reject of the Race - Abby Dabby 2021
I agree that Merc played it too conservatively on the tyre front at the end - however, they made a gamble based on the assumption that (some of) the lapped cars wouldn’t be allowed through. Had the rules been applied correctly, Hamilton would’ve had a lap on old tyres whereas Verstappen would’ve had...
