Can blame him for punting his rival off the track 

Serves Verstappen right for swerving like a **** all over the track and turning in to Hamilton who was ALWAYS going to be on the inside.  Verstappen had almost the entire track free on his left but he took a gamble and lost everything.

He didn't take a gamble he left so much space, Hamilton took him off

Well it is

No - he made a mistake, (I wouldn't say it was deliberate, which is why I wouldn't class it as 'cheating') and was given a penalty as per the rules: he won because the penalty wasn't harsh enough to stop him.

He won because he took out the person who would've won the race

No - he caught up on him leading the championship because he hit Max's car, but to say HE WON because of that, is too much - EDIT: LECLERC HAD EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO WIN THE RACE TODAY.  However, given the race we've seen, it's almost certain Lewis WOULD NOT have won if he'd have been given a greater penalty.

Verstappen turned in to him despite having the entire track free on his left.  He tried to be ultra aggressive, like every other corner and tried to close the door but Hamilton already had one foot in it.  It could have ended in disaster for either driver frankly.  If Hamilton had spun off Verstappen would have been given the exact same penalty.

Yeah people are championing for close racing but we ain’t going to get that when a damaged car gets a ten second penalty and still wins comfortably

Tbf I'm quite happy we've got a title challenge, but let's not gloss it up

Ditto. It's been so up and down and I'm still unsure how the it's only 8 points.
