LH says he made FM do that fault

[F1boat]

arrogant?

dirty maneuvers?

sounds like a future world champion to me

Yeah, all champions made dirty maneuvers and are arrogant
But even non-champions do some

Well he did force Massa to the inside then went out wider to make his entry easier while Massa didn't have that option and outbraked himself when he really didnt need to to gain track position.

It hurted me when I saw that Massa action..

Dutch reporter said; that's the difference between how Michael was and Massa is

I had expected this thread, though I thought someone else might start it

Haha...me too.

When he said it, half of me thought "Nice one! I can't believe he just said that" and the other half thought "I bet it's going to upset a few people on the forum."

Ultimately, everyone is tired of drivers spouting bland, corporate drivel in press conferences, so it's about time someone said something interesting.

Absolutely. I think Hamilton comes across very pleasantly in interviews.

And I reckon it is possible to say that you forced someone to outbrake themself. Keep the driver who's coming down the inside really tight to the inside line while leaving your own braking as late as possible, and you may very well force the person on the inside to brake too late, and thus make them run wide on the exit. Nothing wrong or dirty with that.

I'm surprised LH openly revealed some of his trade secrets. Drivers rarely reveal their racecraft so openly like that during the press conference.

Whether LH was gullible from euphoria or he wants to send out a warning, I don't know.

Having watched the replays at T4, those were impressive moves. Whenever LH tried to cover the inside line, he would jink back onto the optimum line through T4.

He timed those movements to perfection because LH had enough speed in and out of T4, and Massa committed on the inside messed up his overtaking. chances.

Hardly 'trade secrets', if you ask me — I suspect most of the other drivers know those sorts of moves already!

Heres a link to the maneuvers.. http://youtube.com/watch?v=mKwwaO-7u1M

Dirty tactics? No chance!... FM was simply outthought and outclassed by a rookie who happens to be a future world Champ.
