Panflute 670 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 So I'm seeing that they did get full points and that's why he's WDC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because reduced points apply only if the race was suspended and couldn't be restarted, apparently! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,622 Posted October 9, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2022 The commentators made it confusing too. They showed the graphics, and the commentators on Germany Sky just disregarded them as wrong. I mean, why would they show the graphics if it wasn't true.

Panflute 670 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 When most commentators, drivers and team principals were confused by this, the communication probably could've been a bit better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed it was a graphical error or a cock-up as the German commentators seemed so sure of their case. But in their defense, Max himself also didn't think he'd won it.

Moderator Tommy 12,622 Posted October 9, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2022 I wish Max gets to win a Championship normally one day.
