After all, just look at how it went at the end of the race with Leclerc for example “. Clear and clear words on the fact that Lewis Hamilton is not the culprit in this situation even if the commissioners have judged otherwise by punishing the Mercedes driver with a ten-second penalty.

The duelists ended up in contact today, we have also seen this happen in the past in the history of F1.
