Damon Hill and/or the FIA not investigating the infamous Schumacher-Hill clash at the 1994 Australian Grand Prix.

"In 2006 he said that at the time of the incident "Williams were already 100% certain that Michael was guilty of foul play" but did not protest Schumacher's title because the team was still dealing with the death of Ayrton Senna. In 2007, Hill explicitly accused Schumacher of causing the collision deliberately." -Wikipedia, Damon Hill

What the fuck does Ayrton Senna have to do with that incident, you limey dumbfuck?

Hipster Damon Hill, Putting feelz before realz before it was cool.

This was bad too.

Boston dropped a 3-0 lead in both the series and then lost a 3-0 point lead in game 7.

>>74625137
Wasn't really a choke. They got sucker punched twice right at the end.

>>74631474
Was more of a slip

>>74631606
They didn't choke, just got out played.

7-1 maybe a contender but then Brazil weren't that good.

Being 4-0 up and losing, despite being an oilmoney club who can chillax in domestic games and having killed Barca's momentum with an away goal will not be surpassed for a long time

18-1

Best timeline. Too bad the flyers got fucked by the hawks in the final. So damn close for them

How was Hilary a choke? Trump was leading the entire election

>>74632395
Leading in what? Polling got the popular vote mostly right in the end.

>>74632859
No asshat, go look at RCP. Even though the national polls ended up being right in the popular vote, she was leading in the EC by a shitton during pussygate. She blew it.

We've unironically witnessed 4 in the last year

>Warriors
>Indians
>Falcons
>PSG

>>74632970
Did popular vote or polls decide the election?

>>74633177
of course not, but she was up in *state polls* sufficient to win like 350 EVs during pussygate you retarded nigger.

It was a huge choke

USA blowing a 5 run lead to the Dominican Republic to lose 7-5 literally tonight.

The Yankees choking a 3 (three) games to none (0) lead in the 2004 ALCS to their archrivals.

>>74631606
Stacked refball

>>74634143
I think losing a huge lead in 1 game is arguably worse than losing 3 straight games to a slightly inferior team. If the Warriors/Cavs had split games the first 6 games and the Warriors then blew a 30 point lead in game 7, that would've been a far worse choke than 3-1.

Shorks blowing a 3-0 lead to the kings

Williams almost went under because Senna kek'd himself into the barriers at Imola.

Suarez sacrificed himself to save them from refball.

van de velde at the Open in 1999:

>Van de Velde nearly achieved an upset victory at the 1999 Open Championship at Carnoustie, when he was the clear leader playing the closing holes. He arrived at the 18th tee needing only a double bogey six to become the first Frenchman since 1907 to win the tournament. He had played error-free golf for much of the week and birdied the 18th hole in two prior rounds.

>Despite a three-shot lead, Van de Velde chose to use his driver off the tee, and proceeded to drive the ball to the right of the burn and was lucky to find land. Rather than laying up and hitting the green with his third, Van de Velde decided to go for the green with his second shot. His shot drifted right, ricocheted backwards off the railings of the grandstands by the side of the green, landed on top of the stone wall of the Barry Burn and then bounced fifty yards backwards into knee-deep rough.

>On his third shot, Van de Velde's club got tangled in the rough on his downswing, and his ball flew into the Barry Burn, a water hazard. He removed his shoes and socks and gingerly stepped through shin-deep water as he debated whether to try to hit his ball out of the Barry Burn, which guards the 18th green. Ultimately, he took a drop and proceeded to hit his fifth shot into the greenside bunker. Van de Velde blasted to within six feet from the hole, and made the putt for a triple-bogey seven, dropping him into a three-way playoff with Justin Leonard and Paul Lawrie. Lawrie would eventually triumph in the playoff.

Brazil vs. Uruguay, 1950 World Cup.

Or, in your native Brazilian tongue: Maracanaço.

Maybe not the most monumental choke, but definitely up there with the biggest bants

>Kurzawa being involved in another choke
I can see him becoming the next Higuain

>>74633389
I know you are memeing, but it wasn't really a choke. We were the underdogs, Germany was the favourite to win that game by a large margin.
