Isn't this the always going to become the issue when politics and bureaucracy favour one outcome over another?
But I have to ponder, is it a bit hypocritical of the F1 Industry to cry foul, when the situation is perhaps of it's own making?
Any danger you can let us know whats going on in your mind when you make these vague statements?
There were a lot of reservations about going to Saudi Arabia, but that was about the best qualifying and race that i've seen in a LONG time.
Not sure what the odds are for this championship to be on the same points with 1 race to go, but it appears Verstappen is 1st on countback (most race wins).
After how the 2 battled it out today, i reckon its odds on for Max to take out Lewis in Turn 1, lap 1 next race to win the championship.

Both have blood on their hands in this regard, I don't know why the media allow either of them to play the victim, both are guilty as sin, and both have repeat offences throughout this season!
The politics comes in when the authorities take one side or the other, if the sport stood neutral we'd be all better off!

You'd think Toto is a dead man walking, at that level despite all the success you have had those sort of mistakes are not tolerated, and he's had 2 or 3 of the same this season alone, but none as costly!

Found it amusing. Especially since that global warming hypocrite Hamilton lost.

Yep. In fact it stopped being a sport a loong time ago imo.
Reality always wins in the end.

The Duckworth-Lewis system in 50 over cricket matches isn't perfect, but at least both sides know what will happen if the match has to be shortened. The race marshall basically made it up as he went along. It's equivalent in 50 over cricket would be letting the host broadcaster nominate whatever target seems to be a good idea at the time.
