OK I Changed My Mind
I said I was finished talking about the Dubai race, well I guess I wasn't. I read this today and it was so well written I have to share it.
Susie Wolff weighed in with
"Going into the race weekend in Abu Dhabi, I believed both teams and both drivers deserved to win. It was going to be a spectacle, a historic race that we all hoped would end without controversy. That wasn’t to be.
What happened is still hard to comprehend and leaves me with a sick feeling. Not the losing - and not Max or RedBull - they are deserving winners and we always knew it was a strong possibility we may not win - but the way in which Lewis was robbed has left me in utter disbelief.
The decision of one person within the governing body who applied a rule in a way that has never been done before in F1 single-handedly decided the F1 Driver World Championship. Rules are rules, they can’t be changed on a whim by one individual at the end of a race.
Lewis Hamilton you have shown incredible integrity and dignity in the face of injustice. You are the greatest there has ever been. The outcome of the last laps on Sunday? Those who know, they know, even those who can’t quite bring themselves to admit it.
Congratulations Max and congratulations to each and every member of Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team on your record-breaking eighth constructor's title - I hope by March of next year there is a governing body with sporting integrity and fairness at its core so I can fall back in love with F1."
Well said, thank you.
