Hamilton and Verstappen collided!

When Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton are together, things always happen. Lewis wants to fight for a win against his great rival in 2021, after losing that title at the last turn with a lot of controversy and after a full course in 2022 with a car that is too far from Max. I had the first chance to do it starting 2nd, with Russell 1st and Verstappen 3rd in the Brazilian GP, ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​a. Lewis may try to challenge the defending champion, his great antagonist, once again. But things ended very badly immediately. After a crash between Magnussen and Ricciardo, the safety car came out from laps 1 to 6. The race resumed on lap 7 and Russell slowed the group down considerably by warming up the tires on the straight before giving up the last spurt. This hurt Hamilton, who was behind Verstappen. Max would think nothing of it and tried it on the outside of turn 1 to pass Lewis on the inside at the ‘Eses de Senna’ exit. And that’s where the handle comes in.

In turn 2, Hamilton, on the inside, and Verstappen, on the outside, held. “He didn’t give me space. My front wing broke,” said Max, who had to pit to change the wing. “Where did they expect me to go? He just shut the door on me. But, it doesn’t matter,” Lewis said. Hamilton dropped to eighth place and began his comeback, fully fired up, with great pace. Judging by the images, it seems clear that Verstappen, with a piano wheel, has no more space, while Hamilton closes him and leaves him no room. However, Race Direction decided to penalize Verstappen by 5 seconds and not Lewis.
