In the finale of the F1 season, Verstappen overtook Hamilton on the final lap to win the first drivers' championship of his career. Controversially, the safety car withdrew on the last lap and Hamilton was overtaken and missed the eighth crown. After the race, the Mayben team protested to the FIA! However, the final protest was dismissed. The Meben team did not give up and again submitted a notice of intention to appeal against the decision to arbitrate the race. As you can see, the Meiben team is quite dissatisfied!
In the final stages of this campaign, there was a huge reversal. With five laps left, Hamilton (1 stop) leads Verstappen (2 stops) by 10 seconds. Latifi hit the wall and withdrew, and the race was raced with a safety car. On the final lap, the safety car exited, the race restarted, and Verstappen finished overtaking Hamilton. To this end, the Mayben team protested to the FIA after the race.
Meben's team's reasoning was that the race violated FIA Sports Rules 48.8 and 48.12. Soon, however, the protest was dismissed by the tournament officer! The protest was dismissed, but the Meben team did not give up, and the official release of the news, in accordance with article 15 of the Sports Code and article 10 of the Judicial and Disciplinary Code, submitted a notice intending to appeal against the decision of the race arbitration!
This matter seems to be endless. The Meben team looks really unwilling! Of course, the team was not reconciled, and the drivers all accepted the ending.
Hamilton congratulated Verstappen after the game, very generously. Hamilton said: "We are proud of our team and we gave everything. "However, although the game is over, the birth controversy may continue.
