[QUOTE="F1_Legal, post: 94382, member: 8218"] Ahahaha, yep so lapped cars are the back-markers that Lewis and Max had to pass/go through during the race because they were 1 whole lap down. Max and Lewis were a whole lap ahead of quite a few cars basically (Lando, Alonso...). The whole controversy is that usually [B]ALL[/B] of those lapped cars can "unlap" themselves by repassing the safety car and doing that lap that they were behind on, and rejoin at the back of the queue, while the safety car is holding the leaders (Lewis, Max...). In this race, [B]only[/B] the 'lapped' cars [B]between[/B] Lewis and Max were allowed to unlap themselves, aka get out of Max and Lewis' way. The other lapped cars [B]behind[/B] Max were not allowed to. There was no time basically as they were reaching the final lap This was all to create a 1-lap showdown for the Championship Title. This is all super complicated to explain to a new watcher, I'm sorry I couldn't explain any better 😥 Basically, the backmarkers in between Max and Lewis were cleared away to let Max catch up to Lewis for the last lap fight. The FIA didn't care about the backmarkers behind Max. However, the regulations leave discretion to the racing director (Michael Massi). [/QUOTE]
