It would have been luck for Max Verstappen. Had he or had he not pushed Lewis Hamilton off the track? The stewards could not answer that question during the race in Brazil, as there was no camera footage available from Verstappen's cockpit. Until now, that is.

No picture for a while

In the current Formula 1, the cars are all equipped with cameras. This way you can watch the whole race from the car of your favorite driver. At moments directly in the cockpit, sometimes the front wing and sometimes the rear wing. Last weekend in Brazil, the camera on Verstappen's car was turned on, but it was not directly possible to see the steering movements during 'the incident'. Unfortunately at that very moment, the camera was pointed to the back of the car.

Formula 1 has now managed to get the footage. Look and judge for yourself: did Verstappen do something wrong?
