Abu Donkey Doo!

I appreciate both yours and Daves view but I don't see what's so bad with the current system. It just ensures that backmarkers do what racing etiquette demands; get out of the way.

Removing the Blue flags will just make the potential for strategic blocking more likely wouldn't it?

Of course, Le Mans this year is an excellent example. Surely, as I originally referred to, a halfway house solution whereby 'being in the way on an empty track' won't be tolerated vs. leniency when backmarkers are racing each other.

There's already a rule against blocking. So long as that was consistently enforced I don't foresee a problem.

Donkey of the race today: Maldonado for getting in everybody's way and picking up a drive through for his troubles - plus he's being investigated (along with Alguersuari) after the race for another block.

Apparently Maldonaldo swaggered into the stewards office and was told to go out and come back in in a respectful manner.

Seems like a thoroughly unpleasant bloke who has learned nothing from hitting Lewis in Spa, presumably because he wasn't punished properly for it.

my vote for donkey is both the race and the track..

Outside of Seb's puncture, the whole thing was BORING, BORING, nore:

Why don't you go off and do something less boring instead?

Because you're not interested in the facts perhaps?

Give me your post address and I'll ship you a mirror.

Other than because it was Lewis hitting him in Spa, is there any other reason why Maldonado should have been punished for it?

Pretty poor, even for you ioan.

Care to back the statement up or just Trolling again
