Could we take a moment to praise Bono for his continued calmness on the radio. He too must have been feeling the overwhelming pressure but he knew that his voice could never give this away. What a professional. Well done Bono, you did your job to perfection
He’s like a fighter jet test pilot.
True. He's always like that. I'm not a big fan of that team but this guy makes his job really well.
We can all learn a lot in life from Bono. Nothing to be gained from panic, ever. Stay calm, measured, breathe and the better decisions will always be made. Even if sometimes they don't work out for the best.
IN IN IN IN IN IN IN
Benz is a good team, they have a dominant car that's won 8 championships in a row and Toto is fun to watch.
1st time they lost, they don't know how to behave. After 8 years with a dominant car, you can become a bit entitled. Wish Toto/Lewis came to the award ceremony.
The way he said "with new tyres" I could feel his pain in his voice
Max did not have a set of new tires fitted to his car. This is just another blatant lie his team tells him over pit radio!!!
(An attempt yet again by his team, to motivate Lewis, as Lewis can get so angry and defeatist in his cockpit. Lewis's pit crew over radio will always feed Lewis info that a race win is always possible...Max needs no motivation like this from his pit crew over radio, after over 5 years in F1 with no championship, he has plenty of motivation!!!!)
@@Mexxx65 so he put old tyres on then?
@@Mexxx65 did you even watch the race. Casual
@@daz4355 Yes a set of worn tires, they were not new tires
@@Mexxx65 they probably had 3 or 4 laps on them. Do u have a clue what you are talking about?
I did say this many times, but Bono is amazing! Wouldn’t it be amazing to have him help you 24/7 for your life: “OK mate, we have a bit of traffic in the cafeteria line, so we’ll switch strategy and eat next lap, I mean, hour.”
"OK mate, so you've just received an invoice from the telecom. You'll be 50 down on your bank account, no problem. Your salari is inbound, so strat 3 and keep your delta positive."
Ha ha ha...I was thinking along the same lines. "Ok, so your Mrs has been shagging the postman. I'm going to ask you to stay on left hand side of the track, have a good night's sleep and contact the divorce lawyer in the morning". Just to re-confirm, little Timmy has football practice tomorrow.
@@moadtouhami man that went dark real quick 😂
he's amazing good at helping losing a championship
@@maximum.p funny wording, but clearly unfair. Not his fault!
Not a Mercedes’ fan but love hearing Bono on the radio. He’s always calm and composed, regardless of the situation
Apart from IN IN IN IN IN IN IN, otherwise yes :)
he created the unnecessary confusion.
They knew the race is lost when Verstappen pitted , still Bono gave Lewis assurance that the race will end under safety car 😂
@@ananthu8534 No, they would of won the race, but FIAStappen.
@@CristanioPeweyyy Ok
@@ananthu8534 Hamilton almost overtake verstappen with slipstream
I feel for Lewis... he knew when he asked... is he going to be behind me with new tires? He knew at that moment this is going to be hard
No he knew he wasn't going to win the championship 🙄
He was robbed. Verstappen should take no pleasure from 'winning'
@@leskerr9446 rubbish. Max won fair and square 🙄
@@leskerr9446 Like Lewis did in Silverstone ? Lewis was not "robbed" at all. All year Mercedes got presents from FIA, now the Red Bull team had better strategy. Lewis knew it exactly when he said " Is he right behind me with new tyres ?" Mercedes gambled to stay out and hoped the race would end with safety car.
@@BullmastiffForce what presents did Mercedes get from the FIA?
You really should read the rule book over Christmas. The 10 second penalty was an appropriate penalty for Lewis. The rules state that it's the action not the consequence that determines the penalty. 10 seconds was an appropriate penalty.
Unlike Max's brake check on Lewis. Which the rules state there should be severe repercussions in the next race and points on the driver's licence. Max got the two points but faced no repercussions that either affected his finishing position in Jeddah or starting position at YM. Just like after Monza Max was able to concurrently serve the 3 grid penalty and the engine penalty. So RBR were able to get a completely new engine and all the other bits and bobs and the grid penalty from Monza was eaten up. The FIA let that one slide.
I'm not going to go through the rule changes pre season. The double header at the Red Bull ring. The incident at Brazil Etc.
Can we all appreciate Bono for not saying Verstappen and saying P2?
He knows how to keep Hamilton cool. Great guy Bono is!
Shoulda said AND THE NEWWWW CHAMPION OF THE WORRRRLLLLLDDDD!!! #crymore🤣🤣🤣
@@jd43tv56 god, what is wrong with you people. no one said about crying when max lost races so why is it always when lewis loses i dont get it.
@@FexGee Bc Max and crew don’t whine like little girls when they lose. They just move on
@@RS-ig1mc uhhhhh are you sure about that? both teams equally "whine" when they lose questioning the legality of each others car so im not quite sure about that. and i dont think ive actually seen lewis complain post race about losing?
Eh 1:07?
Bono could coach everyone to land a commercial airplane. Always a delight to hear and him coaching Russell was a treat last year.
Russels a little up tight
It's like listening to someone being told that the plane is running out of fuel over the ocean and there are no parachutes. Brutal
Exactly
Should have come in right away and get a parachute. But no no… they wanted track position.
@@bjrnchrstn Keeping track position would have won them the race if Masi hadn't decided to play fast and loose with the rules at the end of the race.
@@DjDolHaus86it wasn’t playing loose with the rules. He completely went against them as written. It clearly states all lapped cars either unlap themselves or not. There’s no situation where only a few lapped cars unlap themselves. Masi created one here out of thin air
@@boblong101 well I didn't want to say he broke the rules because there is a rule that essentially gives the race director carte blanche on how a race is conducted. However, if established procedure had been followed then the race should have finished under safety car conditions
When Bono said 'they have to send lapped cars through' and Lewis responded 'Wtf is he right behind me?', Lewis knew enough.
I think he was making a point. I doubt if he was really questioning whether P2 would be behind P1 in the safety car queue. He had been questioning the decision to stay out since the early VSC. He seemed to be amazed his advantage wasn't enough to justify a pit even after 40 laps of dominance. I might be biased but I kind of hear his radio messages as like "Oh he's right behind me? On new tires? Good job guys" And honestly from his chair I feel like he could almost feel trolled by them polling him on which tires he'd like to pit onto under safety car.
With new tyres.
I can't believe how calm Bono was considering the circumstances...
Fear sounds a lot like fear of Lewis' repercussions
It's his job
Well he was thinking they will restart with unlapped cars giving enough room/time for Lewis to stay ahead until the finish line
Lies again? Voice Recorder
God knows how he did it… I was having a cardiac arrest sitting on my sofa!!!!
Bono makes it look easy, but we all know it's The Edge who really pulls the team together.
what?
@@jastat lookup U2 the band and you'll get the joke 😀
Classic hahahahah
i understood that reference LOL
lol good one mate
"With new tyres." That wasn't a question from Hamilton. That was him coming to terms with how much his odds have been ruined by sheer luck.
Luck?
@@falseflag42yes luck, verstappen won by pure luck in the final lap, if someone has an opportunity to box, and come last and again come right behind the car, thats unfair thats luck.
Luck? It’s manipulation
It’s called a motor race, ok?
@@grigoryrasputin7347no luck involved in car racing
That was beyond brutal but, to me,, this was the moment he actually became a true legend the way he, and his Father took it, absolutely Incredible!
Class is forever. Lewis and family showed that
He was as classy as Massa in 2008, very impressive to do that
A true champion of life
Bullshit. He refused to attend the post race news conference. No class at all.
@@vstar7196 yeah you would want that especially for them not to file a protest 😂 stfu man they were debriefin when that conference happened
Lewis already know he was in trouble when he was not permitted to box for new tires and reacted with 'that's unbelievable man'
He could have pitted. He would have lost the lead but that was his choice.
If they pitted Under the VSC they would have won.
@@almac9203 no he was told he couldn't pit under the VSC and soon as that was changed to safety car, from whiny Karen horner to Masi, THAT was when Verstappen pitted. It was all orchestrated by FIA and RB.
@@simonball6560 why couldn't he pit at the same time as Max?
@@almac9203 biggest question my noob ass can’t understand
It’s heartbreaking listening to this given how poorly the situation was handled. You can hear it in his voice that’s he’s in trouble. What a legend Bono was helping to keep Lewis calm and collected.
the situation was handled perfectly. Perhaps they could have let the lapped cars through earlier, but that's about it.
@@siemensohm no it wasn’t, not by a long shot. All lapped cars should’ve been released not just the ones between Max and Lewis. Sainz was blocked from attacking Max in an act of bias. I have no issue with Max or RB for how the race ended but what Masi did was outright disgusting, even the FIA agree that it’s tainting the image of the sport. The race should’ve ended under the SC, boring yes but the 100% right thing to do and had this been round 6 and the the last race, that’s exactly what would’ve happened.
@@siemensohm after the safety car was deployed. Max would have won, no matter how the lapped cars were handled by the Head race director.
@@Mexxx65 You really believe that? In one lap, plus if all the lapped cars did go through, Max would have had Sainz in the rear view mirror.
@@jpdumais Sainz could have got the "sitting duck" "out of tire grip" Lewis. If Sainz had closed up behind.
Never seen anything like it in all my life, was a surreal experience watching it live.
The race director resigned and the next year they added rules to prevent it ever happening again. Ask any Verstappen fan though and they'll say it was completely fair what happened.
well it is haha. there where no rules against it but merc fans believe so @@ststudios12345
As soon as he heard safety car Lewis knew it was game over.
Good
Unfortunate :(
Which is kind of weird. He seems to know that they will race and is afraid another race start. Even he knew the chance of it ending under a yellow flag was very low. Else he wouldnt have been worried. And he was definitly worried, thats why he said shit when he heard about the pitstop rb made.
Both sides banked on a gamble and one side one it
No. Mercedes ordered Hamilton to stay out and he foolishly obeyed them. Bono cost Hamilton the win.
Im not a big lewis fan i wanted max to win but the way he has conducted himself after the race, gained my respect in a massive way
What about when he damn near killed max then paraded around like a hotshot that's when I realized my dislike was just kicking in. All that BLM and GLOBALIST hate whitey crap solidified it to begin with but he went over the top ridiculous after that....
It was all for the cameras mate.
Yes after race he earned some credits. But he was complaining again about Perez during race 'thats dangerous driving' . Perez was just defending position
@@fixxa6455 I agree Perez was just defending, but in the heat of the moment HAM's reaction was just a reaction... and considering what was on the line I don't think what he said at that moment was outrageous. In fact considering everything, I feel he was quite calm and calculated all across the event. Can't imagine what other drivers would do in his position.
@@dsenerdem With the sidenote that this was not hamiltons first complaint. I dont want to focus too much on this reaction specifically. All together this season I am disappointed by hamiltons reactions. The positive thing is, and it has to be said, how he handled his loss after the race. He had grown in respect at dutch fans I can clearly see this in the reactions
1:35 was when Lewis could sense the danger of a Max behind him on fresh tyres. After that it was constant calls of asking for the safety car to move faster hoping the race would end under the safety car. What a season!
Yep they didn't want to race,,,, red bull did
God, I just want to BE Bono. Every silly team meeting, every useless argument with my wife/friends/BMW drivers... Imagine being able to keep so calm under such pressure. Two legends at work, right there.
Love that comment 👍🏻
At home he may be different!
@@michaeljuritsch9393 I hope so. I'll hang onto that!
@@michaeljuritsch9393 how's so?
Bmw drivers, lol! Dead 🤣🤣🤣
I'm a Max fan but that was brutal for Lewis, felt that for him. Bono did an amazing job of keeping him cool.
Lewis did brutal to max in the first race of the season and British GP. So it is fair to max to paid back
@@tinlapyuen3734 nah silverstone was max’s fault
@@tinlapyuen3734 I think max putting his car on lewis head kinda evened that up to be fair
@@tinlapyuen3734 I’ve watched that clip over a dozen times frame by frame comparing it with previous races and incidents. It was maxes fault simple because he didn’t give up the space. Max turned in on Lewis because of his lack of awareness. Lewis was over half a cars length beside him in the turn which by the rules entitles him to the space. I feel for max and I’m genuinely glad he’s ok but that crash was his fault
@@tinlapyuen3734 racing incident dent
1:30 - The pause from Bono when hamilton asked “with new tyres?” 😔
He knew he lost there, it's pointless at that point. It would only take a Miracle for him to hold Max behind for a whole lap on a fast pace track like Abu Dhabi is, it's funny cause the DRS Was disabled, but still, there is nothing he could have done. According to the rules, the race should have ended Undersafety car, but F1 is no longer something people should look up to anymore.
I don't watch F1 , but I don't understand how someone can pit and then be let back to his original position.
If you pit you forfeit your track position.
@@stgnsw ikr only lapped cars between Hamilton and Verstappen were allowed to pass after redbull requested it and the race restarted when it was not allowed to. The lapped cars passed on lap 57 (1 lap from the end) meaning the safety car has to go around one more lap before restarting which would’ve ended the race under the safety car
@@megawave79
If you pit , you forfeit your track position.
If those lapped cars come in to the pits , different story.
But to let someone come in the pits , put new tyres on then let him go back to where he was is a complete farce.
Are they aloud to go around them when they are racing ?
@@stgnsw That's why Merc didn't pit in
Bono would keep you calm if you were in a WWI trench.
“OK, heavy gunfire when you go over the top. Keep your head down and move quickly to your left.”
“Bono they’ve got fucking grenades and machine guns!! I can’t push on!” “Yep copy that, we think strat mode 8 and hammer time. You can still do this. Last grenade was 1:28.2, time to next grenade 18 seconds so we’re looking strong” 😂😂
@@christiansimmons630 “Copy that, major blood loss. Negative on the option to retreat. Apply the tourniquet and carry on.”
@@mahlstadt 😂😂😂 “I can’t keep my body parts bono! They’re on my arse, can you not see that?” “Yeah copy that. We’re just managing the gap”
@@christiansimmons630 *Leclerc’s engineer enters the chat*
“If god damn bravo team don’t get to the extraction point, where the fuck are are we looking?”
“At this rate we will be p1”
“Fuck man, the Germans are all over that hill. Can you give me morphine, I’M DYING”
“We are checking.”
@@LucaTechIsGod and then kimis engineer adds his 2 cents
“Unfortunately you will not have the drink”
“Are you serious? Storming the trenches with no water?!”
“No, you will not have the drink”
Revisiting this, I would have hated for ANYONE to have lost like this. Lewis, Max, Seb, whoever.
It could only happen to Hamilton out of anyone, but hes had things not go his way similar stuff just like that horror, and ever since he was a junior due to the same circumstances of being black.
@@F1Guy-Guy Dumbest comment I have ever read.
So you should've hated how he won his first championship too right?
@@F1Guy-Guy dude racism needs to be dealt with wherever it happens. but this aint it. if Merc would have pitted lewis, they still would have restarted the race under questionable rule bending and most likely Lewis would have won.
they didnt restart the race because lewis is black. they restarted it, against the rules, because this is an entertainment business and they didnt want to finish the most hyped season finale of all time under safety car.
Yeah pretty disgusting tbh
It’s absolutely crazy how calm the driver remains I mean it ridiculous
Why not? He looses, goes back to his mansion, his millions and his plastic wife. Life still goes on...
@@Rodolka Plastic wife? Do you know who Lewis Hamilton is? Do you know what happened at this race?
@@Rodolkabro he’s literally single if you don’t want to learn about F1 go back to watching NASCAR
@@Jack-1595 Yeah, because who's dated who is big part of the sport right? right? :D:D start living your own life. F1 is about racing and engineering.
Hamilton was so sportsman like at the finish (as was his family). He handled it incredibly well given the circumstances.
I’m a verstappen fan but this just wasn’t fair
He was. The advice he got, and the advice I'd give EVERYONE in a comparable position is that it's easy to look good when you win but people will judge you by how magnanimous you are when you lose.
I would've said to him, for the next 30mins just say 'Yeah it was a strange one but well done Max.'
Then later that night you can be angry and quiet. But for now think about how you want to be viewed in the future.
I wish Toto had a father there to give him the same advice.
@@stephengossop9191 lmfao he did nothing wrong man.. stop Bitching. Max is a born champion.. if u risk nothing u win nothing ..
Yeah, but it was the referee who caused this injustice. It would be weird if Hamilton was angry at Verstappen, he wasn't at fault.
Cause he knew Max is worthy of the championship
The stress level increasing sharply at 100km/h behind SC. Must have been soooo frustrating to him.
Yeah Hamilton didn’t do much wrong.. and he still lost.. it was unfair but that’s just how the world is unfortunately.. by the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might change someone’s life!
ah yes, but when he hit Verstappen in Silverstone of the track or Bottas in other race was also stressful I believe😉
@@holmikehol nah silverstone was epic and fair . Just hard racing resulting in consequence but fair
"With new tires?" then the dead silence was telling. Sad for Lewis safety car scenario ruined what was a certain victory
He’s won the most races under SC, so.. what was one to lose this time? 😄
@@smurfiennes well the thing is that time it would’ve given him his 8th world title.
Somehow Bono’s staid calm makes this extremely intense.
1:35 that’s rough ! Feel Lewis’s pain in his voice and this ended right as it was about to hetic
THIS IS MOTORRACING TOTO! - Masi
Phak Masi, a complete phak-up
Bono explained it TWICE:
HAM would’ve LOST TRACK POSITION IF HE BOXED.
🤷🏻♂️ people just don’t listen.
Surprised he didn't pull the racism card out no pain in their voices when hamilton run max off road at Silverstone
Max fans are just as idiotic as Max is hot-headed. They do not now how to talk logically.
I'm not Lewis fan, and for the most part of the season I wanted Max to win for a change.
Actually Lewis was really calm in that situation too! Imagine yourself in that situation...having dominated the whole race, doing everything right and then have it taken away from you and you can do abso“bloody“lutely nothing against it! They couldn‘t have pitted, it would have been way too risky! No chance for Hamilton to win the title even if he was the better driver on that day...just imagine how you would react...i would be so mad i can‘t even describe! It shows the pure class of Hamilton in the end!
of course he was the better driver, we dominated the ENTIRE race..... duh!
@@mikatubetter car, rocket engine
Listening to this now finally realized how calm LH was. He was sitting in the car, driving extremely fast, hold it under control, under tons of pressure, couldn't have imagined how overwhelmed he was but still keep his cool. What a character! Kudos to Bono as well!!
would love to hear the radio with the race control and the safety car...

He looked absolutely gutted but took it to his chin.
Let's hope he come back stronger like after 2016. I felt may be, this is breathing a new wave of fire into him.

This is fabulous direction n communication that ended in shock. Unbelievable
Being told there is 1 lap remaining, a restart with Max on new tires..... and that the winner takes it all... wow crazy feelings Max and Lewis must have had in the last laps!
“… with new tires?”…
This is when he realize championship was got out of hand
Not yet. The decision to restart the race was yet to be taken. To be able to do that, the rules had to be bent.

@@tr4nnel752 so what are you saying he wasn’t worried? Come on. He knew he was screwed!
@@tr4nnel752 what rules were actually bent to restart and how did that bent rule affected lewis? even if he wouldnt have "bent" the rule , max would have still won as car above and behind him were on worn hards while he was on brand new softs.
@@PIXELLOBSTER Max wouldn't have been able to overtake 6 cars, even if five cars have blue flags. The five cars were racing eachother. If you watched the race, you'd know that overtaking five lapped cars costs time and takes at least a full lap.
No matter who you are a fan of, in all my 40 years of watching F1 this was possibly the most brutal way for someone to lose (apart from Hill and Schumacher) Max and Redbull had nothing to lose hence the stop, which meant Hamilton was a sitting duck. Masi wanted a race to the finish which I understand, but it was totally one sided. He handed the WDC to Max on a plate. It should have been a red flag, given Lewis the opportunity to even things up and then hard racing to the end.
Both of them deserved the title, but unfortunately that title was heavily favoured in one direction by Masi.
Nobody should be blaming Max or Redbull for the farce at the end, this is on the FIA
Yeah Hamilton didn’t do much wrong.. and he still lost.. it was unfair but that’s just how the world is unfortunately.. by the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might change someone’s life!
@@shezadm6300 do your videos show how to create free energy or solve world hunger and disease?
Side note: explicit Merc decision not to change tyres because of fear of track position was made. Luck on RB's side and leading by fear on Mercedes side turned this around. But an explicit decision WAS made on both sides and Mercedes was on the short end of the stick. FIA did ok. Claiming this is a red flag is mental. Wishful thinking. The Hamilton era is a goner.
@@habbekratzz hmmm yes agreed, but considering the FIA themselves are investigating the decision made, then that says something. Both deserve the wdc but it was a dubious end to a dubious season
The only mistake is letting the lapped cars overtake that late, it should have been earlier... But I don't think it would have changed the outcome for Hamilton and Verstappen..
Hammy's engineer is the ferry epitome of patience.
Man if I was Lewis and bono said “he will be” I would be shaking in my seat
I'm a fan of both Max and Hamilton, but was rooting for Max the whole season. That being said, I feel bad for Hamilton losing the race/Champoinship that way, and you can hear it in his voice. I too was speachless that entire last lap....
he knew he lost the second he realized he cant box
Yeah Hamilton didn’t do much wrong.. and he still lost.. it was unfair but that’s just how the world is unfortunately.. by the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might change someone’s life!
Hey, sometimes the pit wall gets it right, other times not. Lewis didn't want to pit in Russia, but his pit wall told him to, and last second he did. That gave him a win.
hamilton did everything perfect this entire race, He lost by strategy and not by his driving.
@@Mo3Lester And because Bottas wasn't there to uphold Max or preventing the 2 free pit stops he did get, this race is more complex then most people realize, in the end they didn't have any backup plan after the crash that spoiled the Mercedes party.....This happens in racing, everyone blaming Masi or FIA isn't realistic....Lewis could still win after the crash:
1:Bottas in p2, Defending Lewis from Max ( but he wasn't there )
2:New tires and race Max, but they choose avoiding Max and risking it all with old tires
3:Not leaving the door open in the last lap ( Poor defending from a 7 time champ )
4:Chang tires at the first VSC , who cares that Max stays out on old tires, Lewis can prove with the rocket car how good he is...instead staying out because you lose track position and end up after a safety car.....Mercedes just wanted a easy win, risking it all in the end.
Toto crossed the line with not coming 2 Paris, if you don't do it for the champ, do it for the team that build that rocket car.....you still are 1st in constructors.....Lewis fans where talking shit to Max after he left the podium after a controversial race saying he is a sore loser....well Lewis takes the crown, if he won, it would go down as the most important win ever for him, he would be in Paris, knighted or not.....London to Paris in a Private plane doesn't take that long!!

This whole season was pure cinema and will forever stay in the minds of everyone who watched it
Hamilton knew they should have boxed.
For those who think that Mercedes made a bad call - if Lewis would have pitted, he'd have been behind Verstappen (and im sure as hell that he would have rather crashed Lewis, than letting him by, since Max has more victories, also, his tyres werent that old) plus I'm sure that many thought, including Mercedes, that the race could easily conclude behind the SC. Now just imagine if the race ends behind SC, and Merc just handed over the title to Max by pitting Lewis. They took the lesser risk from their perspective, and it made sense at the time.
Agreed, that's exactly what Mercedes was thinking.
Perfect explanation - Had Merc known what the FIA were going to do, they’d have probably pitted Lewis to give him a fighting chance
and if the Safety Car hadn't driven slower than usual, and if the FIA hadn't let only the 5 cars between them unlap, then it would have finished under caution. Mercedes could only make their decision based on what normally happens and what is in the rule book, but the FIA threw that out to make sure there was an exciting finish.
@@contentioushackery Correct...except it wasn't the FIA but one individual (Masi) who made the decision. And he knew it was unlikely to be an exciting finish because the odds were stacked so heavily in favor of Verstappen. Ir wasn't just the massive advantage of new tires. Hamilton couldn't afford to be too aggressive in defending since, if there was a collision taking out both cars, Verstappen wins the world championship. So the question is...why did Masi make a decision (that was not within the rules) that he knew would virtually guarantee the guy who had no chance of winning before the safety car, would in fact win?
@@pete3953 exactly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They both knew they were screwed. Nothing they could do.
Should have pitted waaay earlier without loss to track position. That's totos fault ay
@@tqrules01 they could never have pitted without losing track position, only when the gio incident happened and at that time Lewis's tyres were quite fresh. Also, even then there was a risk they would lose track position if max didnt pit. And if max didn't pit, that merc would have definitely overtook that rb anyway this leading to the same incident.
🏆33🏆
Lewis actually can still defend. But it looks like no one in the team realized that it's not yet over until it is over
I didn't realize that the safety cars also went slower than usual. The organizers REALLY, REALLY didn't want the race to end under caution and threw out all the standards to make sure there was a one-lap race.
Tbf they made that clear before the race
The teams agreed to make everything possible to not end the race on a safety car
Bollocks mate. Hamilton was just pressuring the safety car to try and speed up. Cos he was desperate for the race to end before Latifis car was cleared off the track.
@@footballnerd277 No he wanted to have his tires warm so he can at least try and defend from Ver
They go slower until all cars are bunched up, thats why they use a safety car and not a virtual
This breaks my heart ..
Can you hear what Hamilton is implying? You gave Max a pit and free drive right up to my tail. But "Keep working those old ass tires, like you have a hope in hell."
They had no chance. Pitting him would have meant overtaking Max. Verstappen would probably crash before letting that happen
I can’t believe how calm Lewis was in that situation.. like didn’t even swear or anything, even though he knew that the championship was sliding through his fingers right at that moment when he said he’s going to be “behind me with new tires”..
Bono and Lewis are like peanut butter and jelly
Bono - "They have to send lapped cars through"
Narrator - "They did not send all the lapped cars through"
He was speechless, such a painful listen.
This man's a legend👏🏼 of course the drivers are so focused on everything around them and what has influence on the race... but anyway, I guess he was like f*** that's title gone once the backmarkers are through.. it sounds like being on a plane with the car sound and the instructor's voice, so calm "flying" (not really flying bc of the Safety Car) every driver in an own world and he is the elite..
I'm so sorry for him, pure agony
yeeah he was trying everything he could, even his"safety car should speed up" cuz he knew the faster safety car goes, the more likely itt is to finish under safety car.
i like how on lap 56 even bono was like yeah lapped cars will overtake and SC in lap lap 57. but then fia was like nope. i think the fact that even bono assumed lapped cars would go through on lap 56 tells you all you need to know. if everything had been done right in the first place lapped cars would overtake on lap 56 and then sc in 57 and the nfinal lap 58. it just seems weird because at first they didn't. red bull complained about this so fia rectified their mistake by doing it all in lap 57
They didn't let lapped cars through because marshals were still on the track. There's footage of a marshal jumping back over a barrier as the cars pass the incident, as there was still carbon fibre and stuff on the track. Masi wasn't trying to rush it through, which is understandable but realistically, it couldn't be done in time to get the race started again while also following all the rules and maintaining safety.
The issue is the ruling wasn’t made across the board. Only cars between Hamilton and Verstappen were allowed to pass
Bono said lapped cars would over take
Then he said they wouldn’t
They knew it would happen
This is great to hear! Thanks.

@@mineralwater6736 undeserved win, but deserved champion ☝
"with new tires??" The panic in the voice is real
Formula 1 drivers and race engineers appear to handle pressure differently than most of the rest of us. LH and Bono were so calm in this moment. And even Max, when he was told lapped cars would NOT be allowed to overtake, simply said, "ha, typical decision" when in reality it would have been highly controversial for lapped cars to NOT be allowed to overtake the safety car. I believe most of us would be at least talking at an elevated volume, if not screaming, over the radio making our case for what we thought was right. They were both dealt ridiculous hands at varying times during the safety car, and they both handled the information they were getting like true professionals, as did their engineers.
I think people seem to not understand that Lewis would have won if they wouldn't have let the lapped cars overtake and also he would have won if they let all the lapped cars go through. So it is not suprising that Mercedes did what they did. They were super accurate with their decision cause if ALL the lapped cars would have got the permission to overtake there wouldn't be enough time to SC to left the track. I guess they didn't predict that Masi was going to overrule the rules the way that he found the middle ground where rules are half applied. But there isn't anything to take a way from RB still, they needed miracle and pitting Max there was their only hope anyways.
So wrong! End of lap 55 Latifi car was already up in the air and all crap was cleared from the track , they could have let those cars unlap themselves earlier. Did you not listen? Mercedes told Ham before the Masi incident that Max will be behind you with soft tyres and they gonna let lap cars by, so Merc knew this would maybe go down in 1 race lap... They fucked it up for not pitting Lewis bc like you heard scared of losing that track position.
Yes that is the rule. They can only take action in anticipation of the rules. They have been shafted.
It's heartbreaking to listen to this. I can't imagine what Lewis must be going through.
He has 7 world championships. He will be ok.
@@jimijames6449 right? People seem to forget this "detail". He will soon become the greatest champion of all times. It was about time somebody else won the WDC, for God's sake. Plus he had the best car, it's nice to see the best car not winning all the time.
@@dj7oya he will never trump the likes of Schumacher or Senna, yeah he might win an eight title, but all of his glory has came in an artificial environment with the most dominant car to drive year in, year out. When he was in McLaren, when they didn't produce the best car on the grid (but still a very competitive car mind you) he was nowhere, often got trumped by the likes of Button. Schumacher won the 94, 95 and 2000 championships without the best machinery on the grid, Senna is often regarded as the greatest, and he only had 3 titles to his name.
@@aaasss-lv6nl it really depends on what you consider when regarding someone as the best. % of races won, % of pole positions, drivers that overwhelmed competitive teammates, number of championships won... schumacher had the best car for the beginning of the 94 season and had a pretty dominant car for quite a while... Senna as well. Those times (especially for Senna and before) dominance would last much less, cars would be less reliable, drivers would need to take care of their machinery while changing gears... it was different, not necessarily easier or harder to be the best. Had Senna lived by the time of Fangio, would he live long enough to win any championship, driving as dangerously as he did? I don't know, I think it's kinda pointless to argue about it, they all have their reasons to be regarded among the greatest and hamilton is a pretty decent driver deserving to be reminded as one of the greatest. He may be somewhat annoying sometimes when he mixes politics to racing but that's a whole different issue.
They took a gamble and it failed...
Lewis knew the second a SC was announced
2016: SAVE YOUR TEARS FOR ANOTHER DAY
2021: ITS TIME TO BEGIN, ISNT IT
"Staying out Staying out".... ahhh where is all went wrong
The best that can be said, Hamilton showed incredible grace under pressure. Surely he is the GOAT.
And how did you expect him to sound like over team radio in the last laps of the Abu Dhabi gp? Like some movie actor? He is a professional racing car driver. The race and this years championship means a lot less to him, than his hoards of ham fans all over the world.
Pity though, you'd think he'd spice up his radio link convo's to his team during a race, like a morsel of excitement, or emotion, to appeal to all his ham fans all over the world. But He's paid millions!!! Its not a bad day at the office for him if he loses the race.
Absolutely the best - no question.
Surely not , but he is by far the driver with most succes during the hybrid period with 7 world titles .....if you are looking after the best driver during time ...it is with no doubt . Michael schumacher or senna . Or earlyer drivers ......the cars today are safe and does not catch fire like they did when michael drove.
@@stever2583 lots of questions ...why is he the best .??
Man he sounds absolutely desperate when asking where Verstappen will be once the order is sorted and if Verstappen has new tyres damn
Wrong use of the qord desperate, a bwttwr word would be worried, as he shouldve been je ws on 40 lap old tyres bruh
That's because Lewis ignored 2 opportunities to come in for fresh tyres prior the SC when he had the massive lead....
The gamble failed...
He put himself in Checkmate, and he knew it
That just normal conversations between them, drivers are constantly updated of gap times between competitors
No matter what. Still a Legend.. At least the next Generations will call it eventually.
Once the rage for verstappen normalizes people will understand how bad a win this was, and i mean this with no hate verstappen is a masterclass driver but this win just wasn’t a title deserving win
True. They’ll see what he did in Silverstone and start of Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and thank the gods for resetting karma! Well done Max, truly deserved 🎉
No racist should win a f1 race ever. Good riddance.
immer wieder schön :)
You can see, Mercedes already expected Max will be behind him and the marker will be released and that's the end of lap 55 where the track is just cleared. Nothing has been decided at that time yet, they totally bet on the race will end under the safety car but the marshalls clean the track very fast I must say. So If the steward handled the situation right, they should've released backmarkers right at the start of lap 56. It will cost about 1.5 laps for them to catch up and that will be at the end of lap 57 so we still can race in the last lap. People even say backmarkers didn't even need to catch up, they just need to be at a safe distance. All the controversy could be avoided with the correct choice by the stewards, Mercedes will still be mad but they can't say anything because they already expected it. In the end, it was bad luck for Lewis but he handled it like the champ he is.
They could not release backmarkers earlier than track works were finished. Thats both rules and logic.
@@user-kd7xv6nr9z at the end of lap 55, the car was already lifted and all the debris got cleaned. I just watched it once again.
Exactly - this isn't LH vs MV - this is simply saying that the race directors messed things up and didn't follow the rules. Had they followed the rules one way or another, this controversy could have been avoided.
They didn't let all the back markers through though. only the one's between max and lewis. They should've red flagged the race, allowed them to both put fresh rubber on and restart. Would've still been a cracking last lap but a fair one. Instead they manipulated the way the safety car was handled so they could favour Max. There's absolutely no doubts about it. Hopefully Masi is relieved of his duties before the beginning of next season.
Great comment. It seemed like Masi was so busy talking to Horner and Toto that they didn't let the lapped cars go as quickly as they could have which would have ended the controversy.
Hamilton commented on the risk they were taking by not pitting on the VSC, and again during the full SC. He knew their strategy was conservative and would be caught out by a safety car restart. Just imagine if it had been Hamilton who pitted under VSC, and Verstappen who stayed out for track position. This entire situation would have been reversed and it would have been Verstappen sweating the safety car restart. That's if Hamilton hadn't already passed him on track with his superior pace and fresh tires.
I do not think it would have been reversed, had it been the other way round.. Masi would have stuck to the rule book by the letter and previous SC situations and have the race finish under the SC, or alternatively if there was by some miracle enough time to unlap the cars, he would have had Lewis needing to pass cars before getting back into 2nd and chase down Max with little or no chance of doing it.. It was direct interference by an official to influence the race result in Max’s favor… It was clear the FIA, Masi and most the pundits wanted another champion..
This was a farce, it was up until the SC a clear cut win for Lewis, Max was making zero progress in closing the gap at that point.. So Masi had a choice, follow standard practice and have the race finish under the SC. Masi however threw the rule book out the sc window, manipulated the situation for a last lap race, he knew by choosing this this very unorthodox strategy, he was 100% gifting it to Max.. I have no doubt the situation was engineered to achieve what it did, a new F1 champion..
I only hope Mercedes take it all the way tontura high court if necessary.. If evidence is shown to exist, that it was indeed a deliberate act to subvert the race result, then the FIA and Masi deserve what is coming.
As for Max, does he really want the crown if it was deliberately gifted to him? Guess, we will find out in time..
But that didn’t happen and that’s why Horner asked for 1 more lap and why Masi changed the rules to allow it and gift Max the championship. That’s why Hamilton said on radio that this has been manipulated.
@@alexandersimpson3638 doesnt rules say they have power on when to deploy or remove SC? Why if the track is clear of debris wouldn’t they pull the SC and resume racing? Hamilton’s pit strategy was way to conservative and he had bad luck.
@@alexandersimpson3638 nothing was gifted to Max. He worked hard for it all season long, and had his fair share of bad luck costing him serious points. Both deserved it, but Max more. Too bad it ended in this controversy.
I didn't see anyone complaining when Lewis was unlapping himself under the safety car in Imola and then ending up second.
I dunno man. I think this race was fixed more than week ago. Consider these elements. 1. Merc brought a QC (Queens Council - A very learned lawyer that has the ability to defend the Queen of England in her own Court) why would you do that? Unless you know ahead of time that something is up. 2 When asked about driving into Lewis and making it look like an accident. Max (IMHO) acted shocked and pretended not to know what the questioner was talk about. 3 The start, when Max forced Lewis off the track. The reason there was no penalty for Lewis was because the FIA knew if there was a challenge they’d lose. Still didn’t stop Karen from asking for the manager. Just my thoughts.
4:10 the change in Bono's voice tone... It says it all.
Feel for him when he did its unbelievable
Merc team don't use Lewis intuition enough. He sensed problems and all they cared about was track position. Lewis went VERY quiet in the end.
Now listen here .....they race for the construction championship ....what lewis will be or not , is secondary ....no matter what you think , the drivers is only a tool to get whatthe team want .
folks like you are the first crying and throwing shit at mercedes when they pit him and the marshalls aren't able to clear that latifi car fast enough!
maybe using hamiltons intuition as he wanted to stay on slicks just like norris in russia? without his team he would've finished that race outside the top7 and max would've won it starting from last (he finished second thanks to that late rain).
even in turkey lewis was wrong...mercedes decision to pit only looked bad bc they delayed the scheduled for multiple - in the end - crucial laps! everybody had graining but bottas and max showed once you were past the period of graining the new inters got into for two laps you were flying compared to these old tyres.
these folks working for mercedes being responsible for the strategy are one of if not even the best and they saved lewis multiple times this season (e.g. barcelona).
only time they were wrong was in monaco but you can't cricize them for that bc NOBODY (obviously only lewis later claimed "he knew" once he saw it unfolding in front of him) assumed the overcut would be the better option
Two consummate professionals, trying to make the most of their dire and unfair situation, under the most intense spotlight and pressure.

"Unfair situation" I advise you to read the FIA rule book specifically article 3.8.3
@@lorenzoFCIM1908 how was it fair? I'm a casual just trying to figure it out. Even if it's a rule how is that fair?
@@mrwaltermathews Essentially the article states that the Race Director in this case Micheal Masi, can override the use of the safety car at his own discretion. Therefore if the Race Director deems that the race should restart in a certain fashion, he can restart the race however he likes.

@@lorenzoFCIM1908 and do you consider the race official's ruling fair?
Why is this rule in place? It seems unfair but as I say I don't understand the purpose of the rule.
@@mrwaltermathews The rule is there for a variety of reasons whether they be safety or otherwise. Races can be unpredictable. Do I think it's fair? Doesn't matter really, if he would have ended the race under safety car people would have been more upset. Mercedes didn't pit Lewis, and the lapped cars were upset that they weren't being allowed to unlap themselves. Short on time, I believe he did what he could. Lewis and Mercedes lose out due to them "playing it safe". That's my opinion and I'm a Ferrari fan I don't even like Max or Lewis.
You all heard the radio message and still everyone is in denial on how the title was settled - Mercedes F'kd up but lets blame the race director - Golden rule in tyre strategy in a title deciding race, Do what your opponent does - If they change tyres, You change tyres. - Instead Mercedes did the opposite. Verstappen and RB outfoxed and out Raced them - BOOM
Don't be so stupid, in this situation, doing the opposite of your opponent was the correct thing to do. If Mercedes had pitted Lewis, RB wouldn't have pitted Max because that would have given Max track position. In this situation, with so few laps left, it was all about who was in front.

Huge respect to both of them, they both deserved to be WDC, but everyone wants this to happen on track and not with these controversies...

It's basically a reality show already at this point.
@@stopato5772
Lewis cannot pit at that moment, because he would lose track position just in case racing wasn’t resumed. Max and redbull hopes for racing to resume and took on fresh tires. If Masi wanted to begin racing to make sure race did not end in safety car, he could have just begun it without letting lapped cars through. Here, he only let cars between Lewis and Max to pass, brought in the safety car earlier than it should, all after Max pitted. This surely gave some exiting finale, but also put trophy in Max’s hand. The point is Masi played a key role in the outcome of the race, and that too by breaking regulations...
do you feel the same, with controversies, with the races before the final race, where Mercedes/Hamilton got strange calls in their favor, and could come back in the title race? Or you just have it with the final race.

To win an F1 championship you need a fast car, a great driver and a bit of luck. I think both Ham and Max were equal on car and skills this season, and it was going to come down to who got lucky at the end. Both guys were deserving of the championship. Epic season.
Respectfully disagree. The Mercedes engine was still the class of the field. Red Bull chassis was slightly better. I believe the better driver won the Championship.

I am sorry but Max was being owned Hamilton was a lot faster at the season so as requested by Horner Masi changed the rules to let Verstappen win. Stop trying to justify this the fact is Max is World Champion because Masi and Horner fixed the race. However it won’t be changed so it’s not worth debating. Unlike Horner, Masi and Verstappen Hamilton is an honourable man and has said let’s move on so let’s do that and hope that honour will win next season.

Massive praise for Bono for being so calm and collected throughout. I get the feeling that Lewis may well have won had Mercedes opted for the same aggressive strategy as Red Bull and the lapped cars between Lewis and Max being told to unlap themselves. I genuinely don't think Masi made the call maliciously to disadvantage Mercedes - finishing the race under the safety car would have been a tragic end to an epic season and at least we got the race, and championship, decided on track. However, both Wolff and Horner are as bad as each other trying to sway the decision of race direction in their favour and it's sad that this clouded Masi's judgement, who should have been able to be strong willed enough to make race calls on his own. Abu Dhabi wasn't the first time this had happened but I really hope it is the last. Had it not been a championship-deciding race it would have doubtlessly finished under the safety car. The best solution in my opinion would have been to red flag the race, that way everyone gets free choice of tyre, and we would have had an insane 3 lap scrap for the win with both cars on fresh softs with Hamilton leading. Or the lapped cars should have been sent to drive through the pit lane and the racing could have got underway perhaps a lap earlier, giving two laps of racing with the same advantage to Red Bull on tyres, but that's what happens when you take a gamble. And anyone who blames Latifi is a moron.
I disagree with you about the SC. LH dominated the whole race and every little details of this race (except Masi's one). Max on the other hand was nowhere close to LH masterclass, he had no chance to win this race, and was lost far behind. Fnishing under the SC would of been logical because LH shown he was the champion, he mastered the race as he should have done, he was the best out there. The question is why giving Max such an advantage? Why deciding to erase a driver work and his team's effort like that? Reporters said LH was crying after the race, but fans need to remember that LH is fighting for equal rights, social justice, and the promotion of opportunities for all in the world; of course it hurts when own discipline let you down and promote injustice decision. This something LH had to fight against since he is a child. In conclusion, Totto's reaction says it all, Masi "It is not right, it is not the right decision."

When Bono said "Safety car in this lap" there is no wild reaction from Lewis, he knows this is normal in F1 racing. He does his best to fight on the final lap.
Lol! There is this old kid who doesn't get's bullied in the other team, .... and next year, .... Hamilton is going to cry his heart out! With the other kid in the same car! Bye Bye Lewis! New era! No 8 titles! Max wil get another 14 in a row!
@@barrymantz6026 Maybe realize Lewis already is the most titled in this sport par with Schumi and we'll get to see him for many more years to come on the Merc engine?
@@vitoryugojsm what the fuck ya mean par with Schumacher how exactly by driving your car out of gravel traps to win a championship are you on crack twice Schumacher cheated to get the result he never won just like rosberg never won just like max never won well certainly not on their own ability did they honestly. So Schumacher honestly has five and honestly rosberg has none and strappon honestly has none so as to be honest Lewis has 9. Not that any of that matters people will believe their own crap 💩 too. Attention all F1 betting next year will be safe cause it’s Hammatime and he is coming for his stuff
@@barrymantz6026 We will see.
@@ramontitmarsh306 WOW. What true delusion looks like.
this is so heartbreaking man
Hanilton feels the tension, “new tires@ yes he is coming😂
And then the whining about the safetycar starts and debris on the track.
