The Stewards do not consider this to be a typical case of “changing direction under braking” although it is our determination that the driver of Car 44 could have done more to avoid the collision.

And how TF could a dive bomb with contact like that go unpunished?

So if Lewis avoided the contact, which believe me he could have easily, should there have been no pen¿?

Lando's 2nd divebomb in Austria was very similar(with both fronts locked up and coming in way too hot) , the difference just being that verstappen opened his steering and avoided Lando. There was not even a discussion if that was a dangerous move.

I find it very hypocritical that people's(including the stewards) opinion changes wildly depending on the outcome even though everybody preaches that the penalty shouldn't depend on the outcome
