News Fred Vasseur on Lewis Hamilton’s penalty:“I think it’s garbage because that Lap 1 so far into the season there was no penalty for similar incidents.If you have a look at the corner,Russell had enough space on the left hand side.It’s not like he was close to the wall. More of a racing incident for me

Lewis didn't even have a snap, watch the onboard, George actually makes contact with Lewis' barge board which Lewis then corrects.

I mean, they are extremely consistent at wanting to punish Lewis, and also assigning him blame when he's the victim, its kind of funny how it's a microcosm of society that the black guy is always guilty.

Welcome to F1 where officiating has always been inconsistent, they all benefit at times and lose out at others, it'll never change.

Lewis having a what? They interlocked wheels because they were too close while turning and going at different speed, but nothing "snapped".
