It definitely wasn't a red flag situation and I feel the biggest problem with the decision was that it should've been done on lap 56 (the track was clear enough) and everyone would've been unlapped but would've led to the same result.

Sainz wouldn't attack 2nd, Red Bull won the tire gamble, and Mercedes lost the tire gamble. I foresee some kind of NASCAR style rule in the future where they'll extend the racing laps to ensure a green flag finish.

Some will say this victory is tainted because it was a half ass decision but on the list of champions, it will still say Verstappen. Rosberg didn't have the cleanest drive in 2016, he's still champion. Lewis's last lap "pass" on Glock controversy, he's still champion.

I hope there are changes to the rules in the future that makes these racing finished more codified and concrete.

I get that it was controversial in this case, but I liked the overall idea and want to see more of it.

Quote:
[@f1talks] Masi after the 2020 Eifel GP regarding the prolonged safety car on track: "There is a requirement in the sporting regulations to let ALL lapped cars through."
Says the man who waved through just enough cars so that the 2nd place car was right behind 1st place and then violated the rules by calling in the safety car on that same lap.

Consistently inconsistent.

It's cool seeing the pits reaction alongside the lap

Also did u guys read that Ham actually yelled out that the race was a sham over the radio? They didn't air it during the race, but if you listened to his radio you'd have heard it (F1tv/app package)

And Max is going to be using the #1 next season

Pretty good analysis of what happened at the end of the race. The decision to not allow cars to un-lap themselves and then the reversal didn't just hurt Hamilton but also Ricciardo who pitted for tires due to that call. It also shows Masi went against his own prior guidance and ignored standard convention about unlapping cars and the use of the safety car.

They can't extend the race due to fuel capacity, but I agree, rules have to be changed, say

1. If there's safety car within the last -6 to -2 laps of the race, it should be red flagged or something to stop the counter so all drivers can have a few lap of clean race battle after the restart.

2. if within -2 laps, then result should stay as is since the race will end with lapping the safety car anyway...

Something like this...

I'm cautiously optimistic we'll get closer racing, but also aware that historically after big rule changes like this one team usually nails the new formula and dominates for a while until the others catch up.
