Hi All,

Having a big debate with my boss in work. We bet on each race between each other, I bet that Hamilton will beat Kimi, he bets the other way.

Anyway, in my opinion we both drew at Montreal, as both drivers did not finish. However my boss is of the opinion that he won as Lewis caused the crash, and the Kimi finished further down the track therefore Kimi places higher than Lewis.

So do the FIA rank drivers that are classified as "DNF" get ranked.

Could someone please please help me out here, I want to be right on this.

Many thanks

Kimi was ranked ahead of Lewis.

I think you have lost the bet because kimi crashes further down the pitlane and because Lewis caused the crash. Look down the bottom. It shows Lewis behind Kimi,
