Any suggestion of sharing the WDC (as mentioned by Brundle) is laughable to me, Max won that fair and square from Ham who was in a faster car with questionable parts.

Sorry I cannot agree. "Everybody gets a medal" is a disastrous path to start down. Please don't encourage the FIA to head that way.

That was a really classy response from Mercedes Benz. They pulled the undercut on Red Bull with that!

Advice :
Continue with a statement that at least makes sense ...

Have a nice day !
OT:

Staaten Eylandt (cf. Staaten Generaal) used to be part of Nieuw Nederland(t) aka Nova Belgica. Right next to the 'rabbit island' (Conyne Eylandt | Coney Island) and 'the long island' ('t Lange Eylandt | Long Island). Ancestors of Max Verstappen used to develop those places centuries ago...

Absolutely my friend !

BTW : I was wrong regarding MAX's World Champion Red Bull 'bonus price !

It wasn't a 1 Million $ bonus , MAX got a 5 Million $ World Champion Red Bull bonus ..

And ....
50K $ for each WDC drivers point !

Nothing about the end of the race was fair and square. In fact if the situation was reversed, you would be having the ultimate tantrum. Also, nothing on the Mercedes was questionable, you just struggle to accept losing in truly fair competitions yet you would happily accept victory in a rigged competition.
