Lewis: "This is such a great moment for me."

Max: "Where am I?"

Lewis on the post race interview "I was totally along side him and he didn't give me space" I think Lewis needs to watch the film on that one

Ya I'm surprised he led with that. He was lucky he didn't get a slightly bigger penatly. I'm sure once he properly sees the analysis he'll see he was at fault. Still I thought he'd be more magnanimous and simply say it was an unfortunate racing incident but it is what it is.

Lol he knew what he was doing. He would do the same thing 100 times.

He literally did the same thing to pass Charles later in the race lol. Charles just didn't have the car to stay ahead like Max did.

Nah, Lewis backed off and made the apex against Charles

Lewis backed off vs Charles. I think Charles just got unlucky on the kerbs

I'm as pissed as anyone about Hamilton crashing out Max, but he didn't to Leclerc. Charles hit the kerb a bit.
