168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Abu Dhabi 2021 was one of F1’s most controversial t𝐆itle showdowns after a late Safety Car allowed Verstappen to overtake Hamilton on the final lap.

The Dutchman was given a free run at Hamilton because Masi failed to follow the FIA’s regulations with cars 🀅unlapping themselves.

The widespread fallout ultimately cost Masi his job as race director, while there still contin🦩ues to be uproar about the events of Abu Dhabi one year later.

In an interview with , Lowe - who worked with Hamilton at McLaren and Mercedes - admitted he was “quite happy” Verstappen won the title❀ in 2021.

“Good to see Max secure a cham🌄pionship without any argument,” Lowe said. “I was quite happy that he won it last year, actually – which is probably controve🃏rsial, but F1 is a sport of jeopardy. It always has been.

“Nothing’s fair in F1. I’ve been on the wrong side of fairness many, m🍎any times and then [on] the right side of good luck as🔯 well.

“That’s the nature, that’s the interest, that’s the excitement of the sport, actually. It’s not a sport where everything should go to plan and always the best person by some analysis should win. That’s why we watch🥃 and love the sport and there’s never a right answer anyway to anythin🐬g.

“I did feel sorry for the race director [Masi] actually, I think he got the wrong end of that really unfairly to me. There was no right or wrong answer there. H🌄e did his job, he was the ref.”

Lowe als🌟o reflected on the new 2022 regulations and the꧒ impact they’ve had on the sport.

“I enjoyed seeing the resurg♛ence of Ferrari, they developed a great car,” he added. “I think it’s a real shame that wasn’t translated in the end into better results. So that was a sort of a good thing and a bad thing, I think. Great to see them with a good car, but not so great that it didn’t score all the wins it could have done.

“Great to see some change in the world order around the leading three teams. You know, I think noteworthy, completely not to my surprise, that the same three teams are at the top despite the cost cap, because of their embedded excellence in engineering and the tools for engineering great cars, which don’t go away wi🧸th a cost cap.

“So I think it💜’s been good to see some disturbance but in another way, it’s still a shame there’s so much spread down the grid.

“I love jeopardy in racing, so I like to see different things happening and people struggling t🌞hrough but succeeding. It’s been a lot of variety in the season, I kno💧w Max won a lot of races but there has, despite that, been a lot of variety. So I think that’s good.
