Everyone talking about that Abu Dhabi was the most controversial race 😆 It was nothing compared to Silverstone 1998. Schumacher crosses the finish line and THAN takes his stop and go resulting in him winning the race. Completely ridiculous but the FIA didn't listen to anyone. And still this was far from being the most controversial race. I think when Senna gets taken the championship away from him because he went straight on in the chicane once (costing him a lot of time and position) and therefor the FIA means he didn't do the full race distance 😱🤯 Handing the championship to Prost. I think that was the blackest page in F1 history when it comes to referee decisions.
I believe he had to wait for a marshall to let him back on track and he failed to do so, or so I have been told. However had he not done the 'let me through or we'll crash' thing with Alain too many times in the lead up to the race, the Frenchman wouldn't have caused the collision to happen in the first place
“Many more will come for Alesi”
Well that didn’t age well
So happy my two favourite races ever made the Top 3
aight i'll watching entire 1990s races because of this, glad that internet archive exist
That illustrious shitshow at the end is the sort of grand culmination I’d hoped for.
Argentina 98 was an amazing race too
Quizás esta fue la mejor era de la f1
You really should have posted the 1999 European GP with Italian commentary, he jinxed literally everyone in the lead
FRENTZEN È FERMO! È FERMO FRENTZEN!

Suzuka 89 and 90, Adelaide 94, Jerez 97, also were more controversial than Abu Dhabi 21
