Here is Mclaren screaming with joy that VER and HAM crashed.

I think it's human nature to cheer when the initial instinct is your team or your driver gains an advantage. But this looks terrible in hindsight when you find out the driver is injured/winds up in hospital etc. I'm actually surprised to see them share this knowing how close HAM was to having severe head/neck injury
Seems rather nitpicky. They posted this the day after the race, surely if there was more dire results to the drivers they would not have publicized it.
I'm pointing out double standards on this board for people that are upset about those that cheer in these sorts of instances. When your competition has problems/issues/accidents… your initial instinct (for many) is to cheer
