[Official] Canadian Grand Prix 2019: Grand Prix Weekend Thread

This entire debate is happening because there's a wall on the outside of that turn. On the majority of corners at the majority of tracks Hamilton would simply have driven round the outside, taken the lead and gone on to win. We'd all then be discussing Vettel making yet another mistake under pressure and throwing away a win.

For that reason, irrespective of the minutiae of the rules and steering inputs, I believe the result was just. This is the utter, absolute pinnacle of the sport, where tiny mistakes are ruthlessly punished. Vettel deserved to lose because he made the mistake. Brutal, I know, but those are the standards expected of a driver with legitimate world title aspirations.
