    Reports were that he was winded for a few seconds.

However, Hamilton was unlucky when Kobayashi misjudged the situation and took him out. It was an unusual situation because Kobayashi has been one of the best wheel to wheel racer on track; no doubt he's aggressive but equally he's fair & clean. My two cents opinion to Hamilton is don't expect the other guy to lift just because you've made a move on him.
    I wouldn't blame Kobayashi because Hamilton also moved to the left just before the corner. Typical racing incident to me.

    He had a fine season last year and was really consistent. He only made one mistake in Monza the whole year that I can think of right now. Before you mention Singapore, I feel most people agree that was a racing incident.

    Its not only his driving problems. His off track comments and attitude changed right after his father's direct influence was gone.

    I agree he needs a firm hand to calm him down. I'm not too bothered about is off track excursions. It's what happens on track that matters the most. He does need to stop all this coming together stuff though. But he had an amazing race at Nurburgring. I feel he has been unlucky on Sunday and in Hungary. Things just didn't go his way. He is clearly the quicker driver at McLaren he just needs to get his consitency back.

    Racing incident IMHO but Lewis has admitted responsibility so I'll take his word for it.

    Personally, I think Lewis assumed the overtake was completed but Koby wanted to keep the pressure on by putting his wheel on the left rear of Lewis and holding him tight in the corner. Lewis thought he was clear and took the normal racing line.

    Frustrating mistake from Lewis but these things happen. Of course, some will be calling for blood because it's Lewis

    Who was calling for blood? Or is this just more of your imagined hatred of Hamilton?

    Everyone watching saw Lewis pass and thought it was done, Lewis included. We were all then shocked at how Kobayashi caught up and then pulled alongside Hamilton. what people get annoyed about is that this isn't the first time Lewis has got involved in contact which results in his retirement or anothers retirement this year.

    Lets be honest, would you not say that lewis has had the most contact out of the top 10 drivers?
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    What's the title of the thread? Who started this thread? What were your first couple of posts.

    I guess you don't get humour

    So you've taken a jokey thread title a little to literally. Glad we sorted that one out
