Not at all, the stewards did not say that. So if starting with a lie we KNOW you'll be wrong and so it is . The stewards apportioned blame to both but mainly Lewis and I think that was a reaction from who got hurt and damaged most rather than from genuine fault but regardless it wasn't solely Lewis blamed that's a pure fact. However it needs context. For starters up to then Max had regularly been pushing and nudging and cutting in on Lewis with Lewis backing out. At this stage the rules should be considered. Objectively not ONE Max fan saw any issue with Max diving down the inside of Lewis in Brazil-or anyone or anywhere else for that matter -but there was less space there and Lewis far farther ahead, but still Max put wheels over the line to cut in and try to ram through. However the rule is if a car is significantly alongside it's their corner. Lewis was nearly front wheel to front wheel. Second he had room up until Max closed up right beside him, he angled.himswlf.so he wouldn't possibly make a turn either if Lewis suddenly vanished into thin air, still shot Max's car and his steering position, he'd be driving off. So with a classic Max move Lewis is left to back off, meaning maybe if Max closes.up more, wheels collide, or definitely lose the position he was fighting for. Alternatively, go off the track like Max forced him to do in Abu Dhabi. Then there was the other choice, don't play that way,. instead play Max using Max's own tactics. Like Max won't back off, Lewis didn't. Inevitably a collision. Because he could have driven off or risked standing on the brake, he got penalised. But, let's reverse the drivers, we can confidently say if Max had (if places were switched) done the same, to this day Max fans would be saying how he destroyed Lewis and made him hit the wall. So this all being so, Max forced this to happen and Lewis was held mainly but NOT wholly at fault.

Well actually there is a right and wrong answer, saying that in the face of rules is like saying "I think red bull overspend should be ignored because there's no right or wrong answer" Now you can suggest what if Lewis had been ahead and it didn't matter, that's not relevant you don't change the rules and say " Oh well you had the choice to win sooner" And Lewis did not have a fully paid up assistant to the wdc in his teammate, Max has Perez running in that role near start to finish. And Masi knew the rule he had previously openly stated and explained the rule, so it wasn't unfair to be criticised, some things that were said we're too much sure, but at the end of the day for a single lap spectacle which really wasn't one, he sold out to the pleadings of red Bull for a title in the face of rules

No he really couldn't, as of yet he still has to prove he is the equal of Hamilton. Yes the die hard Max is god fans will say otherwise, but it's true. Lewis has been successful in many formula (as has Max) but Max's weakness is still there, he is petulant and emotional. When Lewis began response to the aggressive style Max has, he had to, backing out meant the same time after time, ie Max used that to drive in a way that made people fear a collision and cleverly from his p.o.v, meant they back off or hit him. Now at times it may have been him penalised but in general it worked, he could push with a idgaf attitude and with a had decent car it was enough. But faced with competition in 2021 he showed he would never ever back out and the same in Brazil, when with the car capability being sufficient, sense dictated he should and then try again. Lewis has more calmness usually and has the experience of multiple titles and being the target. And is according to those best places to know, an exceptional driver so Max has to show he definitely is the equal of that, and since George has proven he is no slouch, if neither he nor Lewis could place the car often enough on the podium to win a title, then Max simply isn't that much better than both of them, maybe when he has rounded off the sharper edges but even then, the cars were simply not that good. Remember the blunt reality is he is a double championship winner and I e absolutely because of rule interpretation error and his teammate. So let's be sensible here.

If you think that you have spotted this gap where the FIA constantly favour Mercedes and not just apply rules (Don't worry about that word, RB fans aren't known for their knowledge of what rules are) Then you are super smart. It's a given that the teams have more access than you to the decisions and the data and legal documents and yet not one team has legally challenged the FIA or Mercedes. But since you can prove it with the weight of bitter RB fans memes that must be proof. Geez any chance of anyone using an ounce of brain before speaking? Sure there can be corruption but what evidence have you got? Oh yea, something that complies with the rules got allowed, and then something RB did, didn't because it wasn't inside the regulations. But tell a RB fan the bitter reality of rule breaking after a begging radio harassment in Abu Dhabi last year and suddenly they want to distort actual rules for spectacle and " reasons" If you want to bleat about rules then you have to constantly apply then or be a bloody hypocrite. So which is it, illegitimate title win for Max or you are full of bitter crap?
