What an excellent end to the season we have. Hamilton 8 points behind Verstappen with 2 races left and he takes the pole after a dramatic qualifying session yesterday.

The Saudi track looks dangerous as fuck with limited chances to overtake and is already caused issues in qualifying!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ckvlh0CxJRQ

Verstappen is dirty as fuck. Half expecting him to cause a crash during the start of the race. If he takes himself and Hamilton out it's goes down to the last race. If Hamilton wins today then have to think it's all over as the last race massively favours Mercedes so it's in Verstappen's interest if they both DNF today.

Starts 17:30 UK which I think is 12:30 EST

As a Hamilton fan I really want Bottas to take Max out at the first corner.

Whatever it takes to keep mercedes from getting the W is fair game. Hamilton isn't exactly the cleanest driver ever, he has a lot of bad karma built up on the racetrack over the years.

Watching it on mute while I'm workin. I was debating on just waiting for the DVR after work or watching it live.

I end up normally getting spoiled by reddit or some other notification so I figure I should just watch it live even if I don't get to hear commentary/radio shit.

Verstappen's at least gotten a little better than he was, he used to take someone out like every other race. That shit got annoying.

It didn't look like he braked, but he didn't give Hamiltion much space to take back the spot as ordered. A brake check of a different kind

Also Verstappen technically let Hamilton take the place back as he was told but immediately took it back. Was then given a five second penalty for something else. Now Verstappen has given Hamilton the place back but he didnt have to . Complete clusterfuck from the FIA and Crapstsppen putting things into him own hands

He was also sitting in the center of the track and started moving around as Hamilton approached, which made Hamilton hesitate (and for good reason).

It's just Verstappen being a dirty fucking driver like he has been all season. I don't know how anybody can support such a blatant douche-bag.

Max got a 10 second penalty. Not enough to put him behind Bottas though.

Not true.

It's the only excuse for Max getting driver of the day with the absolute shit-show of a performance he just put on. He drove dangerously, ignored racing lines, cut corners multiple times to get advantages, caused collisions, literally brake-checked his opponent in a Formula 1 race, tried to game the system by re-overtaking immediately after giving a position back, and he STILL lost by a wide margin to a Hamilton with a fucking broken front wing.

There is literally no universe in which a driver who received multiple penalties, including points against his license, and still couldn't even compete against a clean racing opponent should be considered the "driver of the day" unless you are rooting for crashes. Period.
