That’s good for him, only the 6 more he needs to catch him up.

Doesn't need to catch up, there's a reason why despite having the most wins and poles Hamiltons not universally considered the goat, he's had the best car for years set up for him only and not his teammate and yet he still lost a wc to a team mate somehow

Quite a lot of people consider him the goat.

There is a reason why people don't just say, outright, that Lewis is the GOAT....despite the fact all the statistics say he is

Dominating in a far superior car to the rest of the field for years and years...and even losing the championship once to your team mate in the same car....that doesn't scream "great driver" to me

He is good....very good...others were better, and won against the odds in slower cars for poorer teams

He's lorded it in the fastest car for the richest team for years...no wonder he racked the titles up

Welcome to F1, have you only just discovered it?

Schumacher had the slowest car

Yeah classy Hamilton

Preze defends his lead, legally and well within the rules....he accuses him of dangerous driving

Pure class oozing out of him like

The guy just doesn't like getting beaten, and expects other drivers to yield when he throws his car up the inside or whatever....and takes the humph and starts calling folk dirty when they do it back to him and he has to yield

You’ve just described anyone in formula 1, but okay let the hate flow through your veins.

He almost caused 3 collisions in practice the last 2 weeks, imagine that was a certain world champion

I've never heard Verstappen call Lewis a dirty driver at any point this season....despite the fact Max is the only one out of the two that ended up in hospital after an incident for which Lewis was at fault and received a penalty for

Hamilton won his 1st title because a car broke down on the last corner, I don't think he thinks any less of it, a wc is a wc

You really are drunk.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It's an interesting point though isn't it? How many lead drivers in the history of the sport have failed to win the title with the fastest car on three separate occasions?

I don't know which one is more embarrassing. The utter bottle job in 2007, losing to the No. 2 driver in 2016 or 2021 where everything was rigged in his favour and he still conspired to lose.
I'd probably go for 2016. Schumacher never lost to Barrichello, I'll tell you what.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It want the faster car through the whole season

Imagine Mercedes proper took the huff and quit the sport after this

Wonder what Hamilton would do then...would love to see how he got on in an Alfa Romeo or something

At the same time, article 48.12 of the sporting regulations says that "once the last lapped car has passed the leader, the safety car will return to the pits at the end of the following lap". In this case, the race was started at the end of the same lap.

Had both rules been applied in this way, Mercedes argued, Hamilton would have won the race.

The stewards ruled that a separate rule gave Masi the power to control the safety car, which "includes its deployment and withdrawal".

They added: "Although article 48.12 may not have been applied fully, in relation to the safety car returning to the pits at the end of the following lap, article 48.13 overrides that and once the message 'safety car in this lap' has been displayed, it is mandatory to withdraw the safety car at the end of that lap
