MODERATORS
 

The Stewards do not consider this to be a typical case of “changing direction under braking” although it is our determination that the driver of Car 44 could have done more to avoid the collision.

This race I was surprised by two things: how easily Max lost his chill and that this incident wasn't punished.

I things keep going like this, the constructors might be in danger, but Max himself is comfortably ahead. But if he always removed around and damages morale like that the moment he's not ahead, that will drag the team down.

And how TF could a dive bomb with contact like that go unpunished? At first I thought Max was out to get Lewis - it looked more like a soccer tackle than an attempt to navigate the corner. Is this really how we're racing in the fastest series? Crazy.

So if Lewis avoided the contact, which believe me he could have easily, should there have been no pen¿?

Lando's 2nd divebomb in Austria was very similar(with both fronts locked up and coming in way took hot) , the difference just being that verstappen opened his steering and avoided Lando. There was not even a discussion if that a dangerous move.

I find it very hypocritical that people's(including the stewards) opinion changes wildly depending on the outcome even though everybody preaches that the penalty shouldn't depend on the outcome
