On Thursday evening, Red Bull’s official twitter account shared an image of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen overtaking 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton on the last lap of the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, a move that sealed the Dutchman’s mai♔den world title💯. 

It followed a mishandled 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Safety Car period, with then F🐠IA race director Michael Masi incorrectly applying the rules to rush through a green flag finish, which ultimately cost the Australian his job. 

Hamilton had dominated the race and appeared on course t♛o seal a record-breaking eighth world title until the late Safety Car dramatically swung things in Verstappen’s favour. 

Hamilton was left on old hard tyres with Mercedes anticipating the race to finish behind the Safety Car, w𒊎🌼hile Verstappen was on fresh softs after Red Bull gambled to pit him from second place. 

When the race restarted for a final lap shoot-out, Verstappen capitalised onღ his significant tyre advantage to snatch the lead from Hamilton into Turn 5, handing him victory in both the race and 💙the championship. 

Hamilton claimed over team radio thღat the ending had been “manipulated” and later entered a two-month social media blackout as he considered whether to return to F1 ahead of this season. 

The seven-time world champion insisted ahead of this weekend's 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Abu Dhabi Grand Prix that he has moved on from the events of last season. 

The conclusion to last year’s world tit🌳le has divided the F1 fanbase, with Red Bull’s tweet prom꧋pting plenty of angry responses. 

It came on a day the team had 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:release💧d a statement condemning online abuse directed towards Verstappen and Perez following a team orders in🍷cident at last weekend’s Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
