Sao Paulo F1 Grand Prix Weekend

How can they reject the right to even appeal it when almost identical incidents have been punished?

Anyway now it’s fair game for Verstappen to just take them both out if Hamilton is faster this weekend

Not surprised, political decision as granting would have opened up too many cans of worms for the FIA and stewards who have no doubt made a mistake in not investigating the incident when it happened.

Expect as LeClerc said, overtaking on the outside is going to become an awful lot harder now, which is great at a time overtaking is hard enough as it is.

A ridiculous 'circling the wagons' decision from the stewards to save opening a can of worms as you say. Very poor from the rule makers yet again, no consistency, no transparency.

Hopefully Bottas has the same memo

Not really. Not when the green light has been given to run people off the track. It's a fairly important ruling

Disqualify Max and Red Bull for the season. Would that make you happy? Or European Court of Arbitration? Run people off of the road? Yes I forgot that was the majority opinion of racers, pundits and public alike. Wait it isn't, it's split 50/50.
 
Yes that would be bottas who has been dropped and treated like crap im
Sure he’d be well up for risking his life and his reputation with Alfa Romeo to help Lewis his ex team mate win yet another title.

I hope for your sake George is as compliant as you all want as I can’t see it myself.

Think we just want to see good racing, if that kind of thing is allowed then we will just be watching unskilled rubbish where faster drivers are just ran off the track if they try to overtake on the outside. Basically a faster version of touring cars which certainly isnt entertainment

Touring cars aren't entertaining? I know you didn't mean that. 😎

If the stewards, lawyers, officials and the tea lady have all made a decision then what else can Mercedes do? The championship is going to the last race that's for sure.

No of course they are, but lets be honest the standard of racing is shocking at times. Its not what we want to see if F1. Just imagine these rules when the likes of Mazepin get a car quick enough to overtake....

From what I read last night, the argument is a legal one. Can they overturn a decision that was never made?

So the new evidence would be irrelevant in that argument.

A decision was made not to review who might be at fault. Surely that can be challenged based on new evidence that may have influenced that decision.
