The chairman of the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association Alex Wurz says he wishes “we would have had a decision over the 2021 World Championship crown free of third party influence”.

@1TERRYPREST @SilverArrowsNet 1 - penalty was 50/50 at best, when max did it at other races it was a racing incident.
2 - that was a safety thing, too many wheels falling off.
3 - honda and Ferrari introduced performance upgrades as they didn't spend all tokens, mercedes did not
4 & 5 bollocks.
@danspencerddd@SilverArrowsNet Because of money. This has all been driven by money. Every dodgy call for or against Lewis or max has been about money. Mercedes got the FIA to carry our a review, if they had gone to the WMC nothing would happen, then the whole sport would have to be taken to court.
@fia@MercedesAMGF1@F1 Shame you won't admit what happened in the 4mins between "lapped cars will not be allowed to pass" and only the lapped cars that comply with Horner's 'we only need one lap' comment. Was it liberty stepping in with orders to spice up the show or is Masi really that inept?
@SilverArrowsNet Unfortunately I don't think he'll win. As proven by both Spa and Abu Dhabi, the FIA only care about money, not rules or integrity. So the Saudi billionaire will replace Jean Todt unfortunately. Would love them to prove me wrong but I bet the job goes to the man that pays for it.
@m_janson@Svenopedia@SilverArrowsNet@fia Why would you compare, 2007 was a season with 3 drivers in the running to the last race, of course the % are lower. Silly comment lol
@InkyInkt And by the way, I would have been happy if max won it. But he didn't, he was handed it because it makes good viewing and boosts money. This wasn't a sport, this was reality TV. FIA fucked up all year, drivers have died in pursuit of WDC. An insult to their sacrifice & memory.
@InkyInkt Not legitimate. The entire season was a joke. The FIA went from ensuring the rules and safety to engineering controversy for the show. This whole season should be redressed as a non championship season. No WDC at all as the whole thing was a farce. no rules = not a sport.
@HoodedGayBoy@Felicit54172393@hungrypah@jstanormalfreak@SirLewisUpdates@fia Breaking the rules to create a final lap showdown - that's exactly what race fixing is 🤣 this entire season was a joke #NOWDC 2021. Season should be void as a non championship season due to the shit show with the FIA changing rules against both max & Lewis to spice the show.
@AbsorbUnderwear @F1@MarioAndretti He couldn't, it's a legal battle, if he said anything other than no comment it could cause issues for the legal case. As it is I hope there is no champion crowned this year. The FIA made a mockery of the sport + it's an insult to every driver who gave their life fighting for wdc.
@Felicit54172393@hungrypah@jstanormalfreak@SirLewisUpdates@fia No he didn't. Ok that decision was 50/50 but max was on softer tyres and the red bull eats its tyres faster than Merc. Yes max would have got ahead but not for long as Hamilton was on medium tyres. I didn't care who wins but this was not a win, it was a gift from the FIA.
@cellajack @AVAFields31 @wbuxtonofficial Max fans should be just as pissed. Even if he somehow keeps the wdc it's a sullied win. All season FIA have been engineering results against both to create drama. At last race just makes it a joke. Just because it fell one way doesn't make it right. Handed not earned today.
@wbuxtonofficial @jamesmoy #FIAsco true fans have been saying all season they need to stick to the rules regardless if max or Lewis fans. The FIA have been inconsistent to both & created this absolute shit show. Engineered drama, F1 soon bought to you by Netflix with the rock and Johnny depp as drivers 🤣
@wbuxtonofficial @jamesmoy It's not often we see a respected sport turn into WWE. No longer a sport as rules are secondary to show. There is no WDC as it was handed not earned. Awful decisions, FIA should be ashamed, race fixing for ratings. Disgusted.
@MercedesAMGF1@fia@F1
Absolutely disgusting to a see a championship engineered for money and ratings. Take them to court mercedes! Either all cars through or none at all. Max could have earned the win if none let by. Softer tyres, blue flags, race to the line. Not like this.
