    Sky Sports F1’s Damon Hill was critical of the decision, writing on social media platform X: “Maybe they should indicate the end of the race with lights too, instead of just waving a flag about 20ft up in a blind spot. Maybe? I’m not an expert. Oh! Yes I am!”

    lol

    I still blame the engineers. At least say “congrats! you are first” or something.
