Not at all. I am pointing out Max only did what he had to do, which is score more points than Hamilton while not damaging his position. To me it was plain who best in race was and it was Hamilton by head and shoulders.Mchamilton wrote: ↑13 Nov 2021, 22:59I think youre just trying to spin it to make Max out to have been the best in the race in one way or another.Big Tea wrote: ↑13 Nov 2021, 22:48To slightly steal Merc thunder here, Bottas kept Max boxed in.
Max had to weigh up risk/reward of a second place finish and second place start with Hamilton 5+ how ever many places behind, v a failed pass which could cost him far more and lost points, plus showing Merc what his pace actually is.
I think Max drove a tactical race today, but Geez did Hamilton drive a stormer. (That car goes a lot better now they have fixed that broken DRS)
However, Hamilton had do do all he could, not just what was needed.
