On Thursday evening, Red Bull’s official twitter account shared an image of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen overtaking 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton on the last lap of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, a move that sealed the Dutchman’s maiden w𒈔orld t😼itle. 

It followed a mishandled 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Safety Car period, with then FIA 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 to sea🔥ꦿl 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 C𓂃ar, while Verstappen was on fresh softs after Red Bull gambled to pit him from second place. 

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

Hamilton claimed 🎀over꧂ team radio that 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5最新开奖结果:Abu Dhabi Grand Prix that he has moved on from the events of last season. 

The conclusion to last year’s world title has divided the F1 f🌟anbase, with Red Bull’s tweet prompting plenty of angry responses. 

It came on a day the team had 168🧸澳洲5最新开奖结果:relea💛sed a statement condemning online abuse directed towards Verstappen and Perez followingℱ a team orders incident at last weekend’s Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
