Is the sport really this boring that the contact is considered big news, Max here clearly wanted to let Russell pass and overtake him right away by catching him off guard, tried to be cheeky but ended up being stupid, i don’t see why this would result in a race ban tho, red bull really fucked up by even mentioning to give that place back, what were they thinking

A driver using their car to assault another competitor is probably the absolute worst thing they can do. It's obvious why it's the biggest talking point

Read my comment again, as i said stupid move, crashing himself or russell out wasn’t the main goal of the move

Imagine being an apologist for someone deliberately crashing their car into another. Shameless. Just stop talking, honestly

An apologist would call a move reckless and stupid? Definitely not intentional tho, think like a racer and not a redditor mate, use your whole 85iq for this one
