    I mean Verstappen was driving ultra agressive at the start of the race. Schumi chop on Hamilton off the line, going off the track in turn 1 to maintain the lead, almost taking Hamilton's front wing off on the straight, divebomb into brooklands (turn 5) to keep the lead and forcing Hamilton to back out. Eventually Hamilton is not going to back out anymore, and this happens. The understeer was Hamilton's mistake, accident mostly his fault, but Verstappen has to take a bit of the blame. You can't drive the way he has the entire season without consequences. Hopefully he ends up okay though, it was a scary crash.

      Verstappen always drove aggressive, so on one hand kinda taste of his own medicine vibe, on the other - hamilton behaved like a dick afterwards, should say sorry, lads, a mistake

      spoiler

      or go full heel, say what I said about crashstappen, and be prepared for black faces at zandvoort, which might happen in any case

        I mean the team didn't tell him about Verstappen going to the hospital. He found out about that first during an interview with ziggo sports. As far as Hamilton is aware it was a "normal" crash. They should have told him about it, and toned the celebrations down a bit. But leave it up to merc for over the top/inappropriate celebrations.

          even if he was fine, after punting driver off he should be slightly apologetic, as with albon.

          Oh well, after media shitstorm, driving should get spicy when they are nearby on track :inshallah:
