“I said it was good what they [the stewards] did in the incident at the beginning of the race, but actually there I think it went Lewis’ way and he should have let him past. So it’s really one-one in terms of fundamental decisions during the race, so I think it’s okay,” said Rosberg.
The Mercedes driver was on course to win his 8th world championship. But he got caught by the late safety car, which gave the advantage to Max Verstappen, who was on the fresher tires. At the restart on the last lap, Verstappen passed him to take the lead of the race and the championship.
