That incident was 100% Ocon's fault. Can't think why he even tried that move.

That idiot Ocon.
This was pure revenge for whatever reason.

We've seen a few back markers taking out the race leader in the past (most notably Salazar against Piquet). But that was always stupid shit, it can happen.

What Ocon did was intentional though. Ban the dumbass.

What Lewis said: When Hamilton joined Verstappen in the drivers’ room before the podium ceremony, he told him that Ocon “is allowed to unlap himself”.

While Verstappen agreed, before adding “but you can’t crash”, Hamilton also said: “You had more to lose than he did. He had nothing to lose.”

Agreed. Ocon = Botas Jr. No reason for him to cut Max in that situation. Such BS.

If everyone reacted like Max, he would've probably gotten his ass kicked a few times already for crashing into other drivers. #justsayin

Yeah . I'm sick of it !
On the other hand , Thank God for the Renault C-spec engine with more power .What if MAX could have had this engine from the beginning of the season ?

The latest confrontation between MAX and Ocon => https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/h..._1X74zX&nrt=54

Mind games afoot... Hopefully Ocon picks up Bottas' seat in 2020.

Hamilton's response has merit.

Not everyone is going to roll out the red carpet for you. This is where Verstappen needs to exercise a little more patience and wisdom. He had a 5+ second gap to HAM plus stronger race pace. Why didn't he exercise caution and pass Ocon on the straight after the S curves?

Exactly, no rush, while this was certainly a stupid
Move, it was definitely not intentional.
Mercedes already had the constructor
Championship wrapped up, no need for risks

Why ?
That's actually pretty simple . The leader in the race gets and expects always the necessary room to pass , at least in a normal situation .
The whole world saw that Ocon did the opposite !

Maybe Max got his bullying traits from his dad. From Wikipedia about Jos Verstappen:

In December 2008, with the couple effectively separated, Verstappen appeared in court in Tongeren, Belgium, charged with assaulting his wife.[33] He was found innocent of assault, but guilty of threatening Kumpen in text messages and of violating a previously issued restraining order. He was fined and sentenced to three months probational, suspended prison sentence.[34]

After a 1998 incident in a karting track, in which a man suffered a fractured skull, Verstappen and his father were found guilty in court of assault but were each sentenced to five-year suspended sentence after reaching an out-of-court settlement with the victim.[35]

On 29 November 2011, the media reported allegations that Verstappen had assaulted his ex-girlfriend; Verstappen claimed to only have had a discussion with her.[36] In January 2012, he was arrested on attempted murder charges following accusations that he drove a car into his ex-girlfriend in Roermond,[37] but released two weeks later, after the charge was withdrawn.[38] Verstappen and his ex-girlfriend, Kelly van der Waal, got back together and got married in 2014. They have one daughter, named Blue Jaye, born in September 2014.[39] They divorced on 20 June 2017.

Agreed. It's as simple as another rule: "Do not move in the braking zone."

After seeing more video, Max already passed Ocon in the middle of the start/finish straight (at this point the blue flag rule no longer stands). Ocon believed that he had the pace to push to and unlap himself. Ocon gained on Max and got within half a car's length. Going into the S curves Ocon was within half a car's length. Max then proceeded to squeeze him out. Unfortunately, Max had more to lose than Ocon. This is where Hamilton's comments have merit.

And sInce we're talking about Jos, let's remember the 2001 Brazilian GP when, as a backmarker, he was being lapped in his Arrows by race leader JP Montoya in the Williams-BMW only to have Jos pull in behind and then run into JP...taking both cars out of the race.
