Here you are Max, have a title. Gifted it by Masi. You either let all the lapped cars past or none. Could get protested.What a complete bleddy farce

F1 has been a money making machine way before it was sold. Bernie was the ultimate money first owner. If Bernie was still in control Max would have been World Champion before this race. He was always trying to interfere if he thought the spectacle was too one sided, with the possible exception of Ferrari as success for them was always seen good for F1. Max Mosley was also not above trading decisions around as head of the FIA.But will it remain a "competative sport" much longer ? Now that the Yanks have got hold of it will it just be turned into a money making machine like the NFL etc ?
It will be interesting to see the way that Premiership Rugby goes forward for exactly the same reason ?
Seemed like Michael Masi was trying to balance up the First lap incident that Hamilton appeared to get away with.I don't follow F1 but, to my untrained eye, that looked like an absolute fix.
Good for ratings in a big money sport 'though.
Second surely?It was the ultimate intervention in a sporting contest.
It was always going to be tough on whoever lost out today. Whether you like the aggressive side to Max's racing or not, he is a great driver and was always going to be a World Champion one day if given the equipment. He was this year given the equipment to compete. Mercedes took a long time I think to work out their car from the changes in regs made last year which did favour the higher rake concept cars such as Red Bull.I actually feel sorry for Max in all this. He is a worthy champion, but his first will now always be tainted as artificially manufactured, through no fault of his, or Red Bull's own.
I've always been a huge fan of the sport, but this has left me feeling very hollow. It was the ultimate intervention in a sporting contest.
