Well, I think the result of the Abu Dhabi Forumula 1 Grand Prix pretty much sums up the whole Formula 1 season this year...
F1 *really* needs to sort its act out, because if they're going to have rules, they need to a) stick to them and b) enforce them consistently.
Even now, although Mercedes' appeals have been rejected, it's not yet entirely who has won the championship with talk of an appeal to the FIA Court.
However what this has shown is that decisions are being made on the hoof and, then, changed, eg did Hamilton gain an advantage by cutting the corner? Should he have been told to give the place back or penalised? Maybe if it was a Turn 1 incident, right after the start it could have been looked at more leniently, but, even though Verstappen was aggressive, he stayed on the track, so, surely, should have been entitled to the position.
Then, at the end, Race Control saying the lapped cars would not pass the safety car, but, just moments later, them saying that the cars between Hamilton and Verstappen *would* be allowed to pass, meaning that Verstappen could close right up so the World Championship was not decided under a Safety Car finish, which would have been the situation in any other race.
Yes, the season has been exciting, however there's been too much controversy and it brings the credibility of whole sport into question when Hamilton had the race all but won, yet the rules seemed to be changed to make it more exciting.
Should they have done this? I don't know, but some hard questions about how races are run need to be asked.
