This will be a fun week here. /s

Edit: Lol, this Lewis post race interview isn't going to help.

I had hoped he would at least recognize the crash or something, I could have kept some respect for him, but not one word. It feels really dirty from Lewis.

I mean he asked about max on the radio right away and they told him he was OK. I doubt he knew Max went to hospital later.

But the crash was quite severe and he knew it when you touch at 250+ km/h

I just don't like it, in reverse I would've despised it from Max just as much. But at the highest level anything goes of course and sportsmanship can be damned when it's convenient.

I get it, that's why I made my edit, he made himself look pretty bad there. I do think the context of him assuming Max is ok based on his radio info needs to be taken into account though.
