Max Verstappen was declared the winner of the Belgian Grand Prix, without having to put in much effort on Sunday. Driving a few laps behind the safety car proved enough for victory. There is a lot of discussion about whether the FIA did the right thing. What do you think?
Verstappen owes his victory to his pole position on Saturday. His opponents had no chance to knock the Red Bull Racing driver off the lead. So is this the way to end the weekend at Spa-Francorchamps?

Russell and Wolff disagree

George Russell said he was happy that a good Saturday was being rewarded, but Toto Wolff thinks the FIA failed miserably and doesn't understand why the drivers were sent out on two laps to only give out half points. There are always two sides to a story of course and that is why we are curious about your opinion!
What do you think of the statement: FIA should not have declared a winner in Belgium? Let us know in the poll and join the discussion in the comments!
