Oh FFS, we've been over this. It was his job to follow and enforce the regulations. If there were guidance that required a regulation change
they would have put one to the teams. There was not.
Are you really claiming to be too ignorant to know the difference
between something being "desirable" and being given authority to override/ignore the written regulations?

There have been more controversial discussions over the season, not just in the last race. If it was deliberate it was, uhm, finely timed :-)

Maybe because Red Bull is the only top team in recent times who've run Australian drivers? I've spoken to a few Aussies and they tend to favour
RBR because of this. It's the most popular team in Aus from what I can see.
Just a thought...
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by

Hanlon's Razor is good as a general guide but you don't get to become F1 race director if you're stupid.

It was very predictable though, once Max pitted and Lewis didn't and
they were nose-to-tail *any* racing lap/s were going to change the
natural order of the race.

"McLaren was the top-ranked team in the UK, US, Australia, Canada and

The combination of 2nd most popular driver Lando Norris and Daniel
Ricciardo probably drive this choice in AUS.

Also as F1 has started to reach more women (and they do outnumber us after all) this probably
accounts for a lot of it. From your link:
"A noticeable increase in popularity has been seen in female fans, with almost 50% of female
participants listing McLaren as their top team to follow."

Hard to know. Then again as one of the last countries in the world to
have an official whites only 'White Australia policy' (WAP), only
rescinded in the 1970s and an abysmal record when it comes to dealing
with native inhabitants it could be true... The WAP is after all in
living memory.
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Australia_policy>
Maybe (where ever it comes from) it is partly due to the fact that
Hamilton was keeping RBR out of top place?

Don't need to I was questioning your assertion.
I think that whatever team Danny Ricciardo is driving for is more
likely to be favourite.
Yeah, even Masi couldn't wrangle it so that Dan won that last race.
(BTW, as an Aussie I'd have thought you'd have known that Dan doesn't
like being called "Danny".)
I have seem posts that imply that Australians hate Hamilton, not sure
where that comes from either.
Hard to know. Then again as one of the last countries in the world to
have an official whites only 'White Australia policy' (WAP), only
rescinded in the 1970s and an abysmal record when it comes to dealing
with native inhabitants it could be true... The WAP is after all in
living memory.

Maybe (where ever it comes from) it is partly due to the fact that
Hamilton was keeping RBR out of top place?
So basically because Masi is Australian, he favours Red Bull, and hates Hamilton because he is a racist. That's not a good troll barely even an average one.

A quick search gave this.

"McLaren was the top-ranked team in the UK, US, Australia, Canada and
Brazil, while regionally it was ranked number one in Europe."
The combination of 2nd most popular driver Lando Norris and Daniel
Ricciardo probably drive this choice in AUS.
Also as F1 has started to reach more women (and they do outnumber us
after all) this probably accounts for a lot of it. From your link:
"A noticeable increase in popularity has been seen in female fans, with almost 50% of female participants listing McLaren as their top team to follow."

MasirCOs boss is the FIA, the regulator of F1. Are you saying it is bent?
deliberately set out to rob Hamilton of the title.
Why would he do that?

A load of bullshit.
Opinions and arseholes.... Unless you can produce data to back it up?

I'm not a troll,
though sometimes my posts are a little edgy.
Sounds more like Edmund ....
