Lewis Hamilton robbed of F1 title but major blunder must still haunt him

Lewis Hamilton's costly mistake during the 2021 Azerbaijan Grand Prix is being highlighted as a pivotal moment that ultimately cost him the championship. Despite being in a strong position to win the race, Hamilton accidentally activated a setting on his car that caused him to lock up and finish in 16th place, missing out on valuable points.

Had Hamilton secured a better finish in Baku, he would have entered the final race in Abu Dhabi with a significant points lead over Max Verstappen. The article argues that while the controversial ending in Abu Dhabi was a major factor in Hamilton losing the title, the blunder in Baku was equally critical and continues to haunt him.
