Look at this selection of Mini Gems @andyburnham @10DowningStreet just four blacks and two reds in a packet. Time after time they’re padded out with yellows, which no one wants to eat.

Is he still trolling and on the wind up or does he genuinely not know, even after all this time, that the safety car had to do another lap after letting the lapped cars through?

Christian Horner has revisited the final Safety Car controversy of Abu Dhabi 2021, and openly described Red Bull pushing Michael Masi to allow the lapped cars through.
🎙️ 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗿: “Originally he said, ‘No, the cars are not to unlap.’ And then by putting pressure on him, he agreed to unlap the cars.”
But Horner also acknowledges the crucial detail: Masi only released the cars positioned between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen.
🎙️ 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗿: “The only controversial thing that he did… [was] only the ones between Lewis and Max.”
Horner adds that, looking back, Masi could simply have allowed 𝗮𝗹𝗹 of the lapped cars through.
That decision transformed the finale: Verstappen restarted directly behind Hamilton on fresh softs, while Lewis was on hards more than 40 laps old.
