During the first lap of the 2021 British Furmula One race, Sir Lewis Hamilton caused an accident with Max Verstappen.

The accident resulted in Verstappen crashing out of the race at very high speed and could have resulted in serious injury or death.

It is our contention is that this was an excessively agressive and deliberate move by Hamilton to sabotage Verstappen's challenge for the 2021 F1 championship.

By imposing a very weak 10 second penalty on Hamilton, the FIA obviously conceded that Hamilton was at fault in the incident.

After the race restart, where Leclerc started on pole position, Hamilton did not race Leclerc as agressively as he did with Verstappen - taking very tighter and more conventional racing lines through the very same corner while racing Leclerc.

This, in our opinion, is a clear sign that Hamilton aggressively and purposely put Verstappen's life in danger simply because he is contending the championship, unlike Leclerc, who sits further down the standings and is currently no threat to Hamilton's own championship aspirations.

Hamilton's exuberant celebrations after securing the race win while Verstappen was still in hospital, is a show of no concern for his competitor and in very poor sportsmanship taste.

It is our collective belief that in order to level the proverbial playing field, Hamilton should be barred from participating in one of the subsequent 2021 F1 races.

As avid F1 fans, we respectfully urge the FIA to implement this ban without further favour to Hamilton and with immediate effect.
