FIA rule on Hamilton-Verstappen collision in Monaco GP

The right decision?

The Monaco Grand Prix stewards took no further action on Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton after their collision in the closing stages of a thrilling race. Max tried to make a move coming out of the tunnel and bumped the back-end of Hamilton, who firmly shut the door.

Verstappen had spent numerous laps all over the rear-end of the world champion, who was fighting for grip on worn-out medium tyres.

The Dutchman needed to make a pass as he had been given a five-second time penalty for an unsafe release in the pit-lance which led to contact with Valtteri Bottas.

Contact didn't cause damage to either Verstappen or Hamilton, perhaps influencing the stewards' inaction.
