The Formula 1 Driver's Championship was decided on the very last lap of the very last race as Red Bull's Max Verstappen overtook Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton to take the title.

But to even get to that point, huge decisions from the F1 race stewards had to be made, ones Williams driver and Lewis Hamilton's future Mercedes teammate George Russell was clearly not in agreement with.

Russell was incredulous at how the Formula 1 title was decided, lashing out on twitter with his Caps Lock on.

“THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!” shouted the Formula 1 driver on Twitter.

“Max is an absolutely fantastic driver who has had an incredible season and I have nothing but huge respect for him,” he continued in a following tweet. “But what just happened is absolutely unacceptable. I cannot believe what we’ve just seen.”

After a Lap 54 crash from Russell's Williams teammate Nicholas Latifi, the safety car was set out on the track at the latter stages of the race with Lewis Hamilton still in the lead and primed for yet another Formula 1 title.
