EDIT: Actually no, I think that dent is there normally. I'm leaving the pic up as it's still a good pic.

OK so the Verstappen penalty seems a bit harsh but I don't care. Hamilton made a remark about Max not checking on him after the accident which makes me think he's just as much of a douche as his dad. He came across as bland in his home race last weekend and I realize I don't really care how this title fight goes.

Also those people who were angry about the way Hamilton carried on after he took out Max at Silverstone, Max just walked by Lewis without even checking on him, despite nearly squashing his brain out his mouth, so they're one-all in the shithouse behaviour department.

Blame the race stewards for all these shenanigans. We desperately need permanent stewards who can apply the rules consistently. Seems each set of stewards have a different interpretation of the same rules which leads to confusion and inconsistent penalties.

Max has the championship lead so its absolutely within his interests to take half chances and turn in on people
If he was behind in the championship he might drive different, but for now he has no reason to change his attitude

Or

Lewis is so used to winning championships uncontested that he believes any corner he's battling for is his, and the other driver should "give way" as he said in his interview. If he wasn't so entitled he might drive different, but with stewarding like this he has no reason to change his attitude.

The FIA should go full Niki Lauda on both their asses and tell them to stop being this shitty in close quarters regardless of responsibility. But they won't, because we need ALL THE ANGLES

“One of the big parts [of stewarding] that has been a mainstay for many, many years [is] that you should not consider the consequences in an incident.

“So when you judge incidents, they judge the incident itself, the merits of the incident and not what happens after as a consequence, and that’s been something the stewards have done for many years and have been advised to do from the top down – and I’m talking team involvement and so forth.

Great 360 on board of both Hamilton and Verstappen. Verstappens wheel doesn't just land on Hamilton's head. It rolls along it! And just to add more to my take how Max should have bailed out, just look at the angle he was driving into the apex. He would have forced Hamilton to come to a complete stop if he didn't go over the curb and made the corner.
