Read the post below:
Hamilton’s final lap loss has been a dominant topic of debate within the F1 community since December. Many fans believe pundits such as Karun Chandhok, Will Buxton and Damon Hill have been complacent since the race at Yas Marina and have sided with the FIA.
Nick Knowles is the latest high-profile fan to have given his take on the controversial race. Rather harshly, he wrote:
What followed was a war of words between various Twitter users, with some taking the FIA’s side and others condemning its actions in the season finale. One fan lashed out at Knowles for allegedly being biased towards Lewis Hamilton and shouting conspiracy at any given opportunity. On the flip side, the TV presenter’s comments received a lot of praise for actively calling out those in power.
Karun Chandhok feels Lewis Hamilton’s retirement would be “extremely damaging” to the sport’s reputation
Despite the negative comments the former driver receives, Karun Chandhok believes that Lewis Hamilton’s retirement from the sport would only further damage the already declining reputation of F1. Chandhok said that if the Briton were to retire from the sport, it would show that the sport’s most decorated driver has lost faith in the very sport that gave him everything he has. Speaking to Express UK, he said:
Hamilton has been out of the public eye since the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and his status in the sport has not yet been confirmed by Mercedes. His contract, however, stands until the end of 2023, giving fans hope of the icon’s return in March. Multiple sources claim the Briton’s return is contingent on the results of the ongoing FIA inquiry. Only time will tell if the sport’s favorite star will be able to reconcile the immense loss in his mind and return in 2022.
