My amateur reading of Max's steering inputs is that he never aimed at the apex at all,
but neither did he open the wheel to drift out - he was just never going to make
the corner having braked as late as he did (catching hamilton under braking).

Well, I'll be damned.
I've watched that a bunch of times now, and...
...Verstappen doesn't open his hands to make the car go straighter for
that moment you can see in the overhead shot.
What it looks like to me is that he chooses what he thinks will be a trajectory that will leave Hamilton with no room at the exit of the
corner (which would still have been an infraction, because Hamilton had clearly earned himself the rights to room on the track)...
...but then his car picks up some understeer--probably caused by the turbulence from Hamilton's car, and his chosen line becomes one that
puts him right off track as well.
So to me, this is just like Hamilton's attempted pass on Verstappen at Copse:
Verstappen(Hamilton) picked a line and a speed that he(he) felt he(he) needed to take to use the inside line to stay ahead(pass) Hamilton(Verstappen), but the car understeered wider than that line. But he(he) could have backed off a little to have left Hamilton(Verstappen)
to room to which Hamilton(Verstappen) was entitled to and perhaps the manoeuvre wouldn't have succeed, but that's racing.
So same penalty for both in my book. Maybe a little more serious for Hamilton because of the much higher speed at Copse than at turn 4 at Interlagos ("Descida do Lago").

He simply didn't really try very hard to turn in, did he.
The full story only really becomes obvious from side by side laps video/telemetry but it looks to me that he chose not to steer in. It is
not obvious that he couldn't.

My amateur reading of Max's steering inputs is that he never aimed at
the apex at all, but neither did he open the wheel to drift out - he
was just never going to make the corner having braked as late as he
did (catching hamilton under braking).
Am I wrong?-a And does that make Max's actions right?
He simply didn't really try very hard to turn in, did he.
He tried what he thought would be just enough to leave him room on the
track and Hamilton having to either fall back or go off.
What advantage would there be for Verstappen to choosing a trajectory
which takes them both off, when the opportunity was clearly there for
him to be able to stay on the track with only Hamilton going off (and
thus help get back some gap)?

It is not obvious that he couldn't.
It's obvious he was steering in sufficiently to let him stay on track

Watch the video from 7s to 8s at half speed. At about 7.5s,
Verstappen's nose is still pointed into the (admittedly early, but
that's what an inside manoeuvre does) apex, and then without him
release any steering wheel angle at all the car just washes wide, and
he actually starts adding steering wheel angle. Long before he gets
to the track edge, he's got nearly 90 degrees of steering wheel.

I have no reason to consider them any more than your previous premature
and incorrect guesses.
I do not see any purpose for your response. Max did not attempt to turn
in sufficiently in time to make the corner without punting Lewis off
the track.
The fact that when he did turn in it was so late that he had
to run miles off track is almost incidental to the intent, or lack of.

That's the only bit I struggle with (and I'm no racing driver); but Max is overtaking
Hamilton off the normal line, into a tighter apex, so he's going faster that Lewis
has judged is "correct" for that corner and yet is still on a trajectory to make the
turn? Are you factoring in speed to that evaluation? The trajectory might have been
good but the pace might have been excessive to achieve the turn (perhaps that's what
you're alluding do in terms of the understeer?

My amateur reading of Max's steering inputs is that he
never aimed at the apex at all, but neither did he open

He simply didn't really try very hard to turn in, did he.
He tried what he thought would be just enough to leave him
room on the track and Hamilton having to either fall back or
go off.
What advantage would there be for Verstappen to choosing a
trajectory which takes them both off, when the opportunity was clearly there for him to be able to stay on the track with
only Hamilton going off (and thus help get back some gap)?

It's obvious he was steering in sufficiently to let him stay

early, but that's what an inside manoeuvre does) apex, and

I agree. And I've stated that I think it would have been illegal even
if he himself had stayed on the racing surface.
The fact that when he did turn in it was so late that he had
to run miles off track is almost incidental to the intent, or lack
of.
When he chose his turn in, he chose it believing he would stay on the

You clearly have nothing to add to what we can see on the video but
your guesses which appear rather uneducated.
The FACT is that Verstappen chose to drive in such a way that he would
never stay on track. He created the understeer.
Did you even look at the videos you were touting earlier?
Take another look.
Less nonsense more consideration.

geoffThe video is online now at
My amateur reading of Max's steering inputs is
that he never aimed at the apex at all, but
neither did he open the wheel to drift out - he
was just never going to make the corner having
braked as late as he did (catching hamilton under braking).
Am I wrong? And does that make Max's actions
right?
He simply didn't really try very hard to turn in,
did he.
He tried what he thought would be just enough to
leave him room on the track and Hamilton having to
either fall back or go off.
What advantage would there be for Verstappen to
choosing a trajectory which takes them both off, when
the opportunity was clearly there for him to be able
to stay on the track with only Hamilton going off
(and thus help get back some gap)?
The full story only really becomes obvious from
side by side laps video/telemetry but it looks to
me that he chose not to steer in. It is not
obvious that he couldn't.
It's obvious he was steering in sufficiently to let
him stay on track until he picked up a large dose of understeer.
Watch the video from 7s to 8s at half speed. At about
7.5s, Verstappen's nose is still pointed into the
(admittedly early, but that's what an inside manoeuvre
does) apex, and then without him release any steering
wheel angle at all the car just washes wide, and he
actually starts adding steering wheel angle. Long
before he gets to the track edge, he's got nearly 90
degrees of steering wheel.
I refer you to my previous response.
I don't see that your guesses add anything.
They're not guesses.
I have no reason to consider them any more than your
previous premature and incorrect guesses.
I do not see any purpose for your response. Max did not
attempt to turn in sufficiently in time to make the corner
without punting Lewis off the track.
I agree. And I've stated that I think it would have been
illegal even if he himself had stayed on the racing surface.
The fact that when he did turn in it was so late that he had
to run miles off track is almost incidental to the intent,
or lack of.
When he chose his turn in, he chose it believing he would
stay on the track.
Why do you feel the need to make such obvious guesses or repeat
them?
I'm rebutting the nonsense that Verstappen chose a line that was
"never" going to stay on the track.
That's a falsehood. You are not rebutting anyone.

No. He chose to drive in a way that he THOUGHT would allow him to
stay on track, but force Hamilton off track or to fall in behind.

Less nonsense more consideration.
Look at the original overhead. There is a HUGE, obvious moment where
the car suddenly goes much straighter than it had been the moment
before, and now that we've seen the forward-facing in-car video, it
is clear that it didn't do so because Verstappen opened the wheel.
So you're seriously suggesting that Verstappen chose his line
counting on that sudden moment of understeer happening?

LOL.

No. I am saying he did not have that much control over his line nor did
he care. His mind was not on making the corner as much as blocking
Hamilton from doing so.

How far does the 33 car travel in just one frame before braking?
25 frames per second 306km per hour. Do the maths.
I count 4 frames.

width of the track.

line, into a tighter apex, so he's going faster that
Lewis has judged is "correct" for that corner and yet
is still on a trajectory to make the turn? Are you
factoring in speed to that evaluation? The trajectory
might have been good but the pace might have been
excessive to achieve the turn (perhaps that's what
you're alluding do in terms of the understeer?
I've seen a video that compares the incident to another
lap on pretty close to the same line.
You will have noted the steering angles then.
I saw some telemetry but it was not clear enough for me to
be able to distinguish throttle/brake position wrt to
position.
Then you should pay more attention.
Just run each video at 0.25 speed and you can stop each right
when Verstappen applies the brakes...
...in almost precisely the same spot at almost precisely the
same speed.
You will acknowledge that they are as important for
determining cause of understeer.
This video shows Hamilton and Verstappen with telemetry:
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvVqHI3m9JM>
And this one shows Verstappen on two different laps, but
both on the tighter inside line.
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3eLfA9RTko>
The second video doesn't have the synch between the two
laps done very well, but you can basically see that at
the same point in the corner, Verstappen was at pretty
close to the same speed (about
I haven't followed the link but usually they are in synch
WRT time, perfectly...
And you know this, because?
And synched at what point?
You put such store in them that I assumed they would be the
actual telemetry traces as available seen on F1TV which you
were banging on about previously.
I'm sorry, but those telemetry traces aren't shown on F1TV. I
don't know how the poster of the YouTube video got them.
Be sorry for being wrong. That is where I saw them.
Link, please! I'm an F1TV subscriber so don't worry that I won't be
able to see it.
But the fact is that Verstappen begins braking at almost
precisely the same place from almost precisely the same speed.
Nonsense.
As you already claimed but while banging on about the braking
yet again you totally ignore the throttle.
Because in both cases, you can see that Verstappen is right off
the throttle until the point where you'd expect him to get back
on it.
Wrong.
Do you not know what happens when you get back on the throttle while understeering?
So was he understeering when he got back on the throttle or was he oversteering?
Because you've now claimed both.
More importantly, Verstappen is all the way off the throttle at
the point where his car suddenly understeers, so it wasn't
throttle induced.
<sigh> Such a tiny part of the picture.
You say that now... ...after implying that the understeer was caused
by his use of the throttle.

BUT instead of avoiding the question again. If he was understeering
what happens when he applies the throttle?
How far does the 33 car travel in just one frame before braking?
25 frames per second 306km per hour. Do the maths.
I count 4 frames.
So in your opinion "almost precisely" is actually greater than the
width of the track.
Which is irrelevant when you look to see that he got the car's speed
down to the same as it was in the comparison to lap 58.

Nope. And actual understanding that there is not one outcome if one

LOL.
You can see how much throttle he applies and the result.
You can see he applies the throttle after it becomes apparent that he
is going to leave the track whether he applies it or not.
So you are claiming that applying the throttle as and when he did did
not contribute to his line.

did did not contribute to his line.
I'm claiming that at the time and place he applied the throttle it
was already completely apparent that he was going to go off the
track. Apparent to him and everyone else who actually understands
racing vehicle dynamics.
Do you really.
I understand that you have no fucking clue what you are talking
about.
Only a complete moron would claim that applying the throttle when he
did had no consequences on his line.
Since I didn't claim that, it's true...
...but irrelevant.

Got it.
You say that but you never get it.
I get it very, very well.
In that case you admit your responses are bullshit.
Nope.
There is only so much of your dumb shit I am willing to
read no matter respond to.
Says that man who doesn't even know what "understeer"
means...
LIAR.
Just a tedious little liar.
Without looking it up, give us YOUR definition of
understeer.
What makes you think you get to ask me basic questions when you
have proven your incompetence, unwillingness and inability to
answer any of my questions so completely?
You know I know what understeer is.
No. I do not know that at all.##
Liar.
Transparently evasive.
Nope.
You've claimed both that Verstappen oversteered and understeered (and
now claim it was just a "mistype")...
...and you've claimed that Hamilton understeered off the track.
So, no: I really don't think you truly understand what "understeer"
means.
Liar.

the car's speed down to the same as it was in the
comparison to lap 58.
What a meaningless assertion.
Both cars had to slow to much less than optimal speed at
some point.... they were also no longer on the racing
line and understeering way offline.
No, actually. Hamilton's car was not "understeering".
You remain confused about that basic racing dynamics terms
mean.
..and yet more irrelevance.
I see your white flag.
Quick yes or no question:
Was Hamilton understeering in that incident?
You're really waving that white flag now.
The discussion is about Verstappen's line so obviously you want
to concentrate on Hamilton now.
"THEY were also no longer on the racing line and understeering way
offline"?
Or is it you just don't know what the word "they" means?
Yet it is you who choose to abandon your original argument and
divert.
Really?
What argument did I supposedly "abandon"?
How Ironic. Claiming not to know what you were previously arguing.
QED.

That depends on how much throttle he applies.

Nope. And actual understanding that there is not one outcome

You can see how much throttle he applies and the result.
You can see he applies the throttle after it becomes apparent
that he is going to leave the track whether he applies it or
not.

In claiming that it is irrelevant you have just confirmed my assertion.
You totally ignored throttle application while making a number of
claims, some clearly false, which are rendered complete nonsense when
the available information is considered.
Be honest, right from claiming Max opened his steering to claiming 12m
(or more) is negligible to claiming the throttle position is irrelevant
to a cars line,
you fucked up... all while claiming you were rebutting
a statement that was never made.

I ignored throttle application as a possible cause of the understeer
that eventually (eventually!) sent him off the track...
...because no throttle was being applied at that time.
Be honest, right from claiming Max opened his steering to claiming
12m
I THOUGHT Max must have opened his steering when we didn't yet have
the in-car view forward; as did no lesser expert than Martin Brundle.
(or more) is negligible to claiming the throttle position is
irrelevant to a cars line,
Nope. I never once claimed that. That's just a lie.

I'm sorry, but those are the things you said. Even if "oversteer" was
just a brainfart, Hamilton did not "understeer" off the track.
