MODERATORS
I mean, had the race finished under the safety car as it ought to have done then we can say that Lewis would have won the race and the championship
We'd assume, yes. And I'm not a lawyer, but I don't think this would hold up in court. There's a non-zero chance Lewis' car would've died during the last lap driving slowly, for example.
I mean, courts don't work on the basis of non-zero chances.
What I'm saying is that they probably can't "invent" a race result in court by fantasizing about how it could've been.
And I'm saying extrapolating one safety car lap forward is not 'fantasizing'
