I hear Lewis Hamilton has gone back to Musical Youth…..he couldn't pass the Dutchie on the left hand side.

Classic

Mercedes AMG.

Mercedes Achter Max Gefinisht.

Very very clever, I will use that with my Dutch colleagues in IJmuiden.

I’m confident they already know the proper Dutch version I bastardised it with a German feel to make it a bit more understandable without google to my British friends

There is also a slightly more edgy one going around, but I’m afraid that some people will get offended by that one. So I refrain from posting in public …

Lewis made it without being run off the track

My gosh the British press is so alone and pathetic on this. It wasn’t stolen, it wasn’t denied. It was just a race and stuff happens.

Great, now the knighthood ceremony is out of the way.
Here comes the Mercedes Law suit 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

This reminds me so much of the rugby incident when Scotland played Australia in the RWC quarter final, the referee, one Craig Joubert made an astonishing mistake in the final minutes, effectively losing the match for Scotland.
He ran off the pitch without shaking hands with any of the players, which is unheard of in rugby and was never seen again  Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Mercedes have said they intend to appeal against a decision by race stewards to reject their post-race protest regarding the handling of events by race director Michael Masi.

They have 96 hours from giving notice of intention to appeal - until around 19:00 UK time on Thursday - to decide whether to go ahead. 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

Unless the rules get changed

I couldn't resist. Outside the UK, Mercedes is not looking good in this at the moment. I can see Toto wants to do that, but I don't think the other shareholders have the appetite for that kind of a fight. There reputation is getting tarnished already.

I’m sure AG Daimler will reel him in once he’s calmed down a a bit and they explain the “bigger picture” in terms of world wide reputations etc Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Worst case they will just say that the whole race result is void.

Net result - Max is still champion.

Get over it & move on.

The Toto law suit is just part of the charade to keep the publicity going - F1 really is turning into WWF.

This was circulating on WhatsApp and twitter before the race started..

If AMG gets wind of it, they'll say the whole race was fixed..





Anyway, what else could we expect ? Its Christmas time ....
