I'm not sure that it was the fact that he lost but the way it was done by the race director with sure knowledge that Max would win in the circumstances by breaking the rules of the game.

They know very well that racing can throw nasties. Lewis had already beaten Max on the track. He didn't need to be racing the RD as well.

I'm sure he will be back but I wouldn't blame him if he decided he has been at it long enough now. He's proved he still has what it takes.

Laughably, Lewis Hamilton may be punished for not attending the awards ceremony, says new FIA president Mohammed ben Sulayem, because:
