The Crane and Lewis

It's all in post #123 by tinchote. The phrase is: "cranes should not be brought into action until the driver has made it clear that he will not continue.

PLease read it carefully.

I did, and I'm still thinking it's all in post #115 by Andreag.

Everybody's saying it, saying it, saying it.................

It would of been my first instinct to get the F outta dodge knowing that you followed a car in there and you were almost clipped by another. I don't know if he was just ballsy, or Ron or his dad were screaming into the radio to stay put and keep the engine running.

To be honest, his day should of been done right there and he should of exited the car ASAP since that was a dangerous area to be in. I even shouted at the TV for him to get out, when I saw more cars come flying into that area. Then Liuzzi goes airborn and clips the crane. I couldn't believe it when they let Lewis off the hook and he just took off like it was no big deal. Bad juju, it will bite him back.

Tell me, why is it safer to be hit by another car when you are out of your car than when you are in it?

[Valve Bounce]

Well, I suppose if another car came and hit your car, it would be a little safer if you had already got the hell outa there and took refuge behind hte safety barrier. Unless, of course, if a helicopter came outa the sky and missed the car and crashed behind the safety barrier.

It's all about perspectives, I guess!!

Teams "stayed silent" because there was no problem with what was done.

You're right that in future drivers may stay in the car with the engine running, but shouldn't they be doing that anyway if they have an otherwise healthy car? It shouldn't take a rookie to make them aware that they can, they should know that already shouldn't they?

Looks like the new boy read the rule book better than some

....However, it remains my view that Lewis Hamilton had broken the rules, and he should be erased from the results.

Anyway, He didn't score any single point!! Just racing in monkeys' side was enough for him

Not Ralf - car goes off (or makes a "funny" noise) - hop out - return to garage - collect paycheck - day's over!!
