Whats going to Happen at Mercedes

Lewis decided he didn't need a way out , despite Nico being right beside him mid-corner .

Some drivers are beginning to express an opinion on Nico the Cheats move on Sunday.

Button agrees:

Massa also agrees:

Good to see some drivers come out in support of Hamilton. Hopefully the remaining drivers will as well.

I agree with Button, I'm very happy with the way Hamilton has reacted to all of this. He definitely has grown and matured over the last couple of years. It's a pity that a cheat in control of this years championship now but it's not over yet.

Black night, not of the links you posted support the obnoxious claim that Rosberg is a cheat.

Unfortunately, in today's PC world drivers can't come out directly and say someone is a cheat. Calling a move unbelievable is as close as it will get. Martin Brundle sums it up well

Rosberg’s post-race words and otherwise limited explanation do at least explain why, having turned away initially, he then not only straightens the wheel but actually turns towards Hamilton.

I honestly feel embarrassed for F1 that this has been left unpunished. If Nico the Cheat goes on to win the WDC this year, it'll be the equivalent of a boxer getting a TKO with a block of lead in his gloves. Just like Monaco, this is an embarrassment to F1.

Of course Mia, just like Chilton/Raikkonen in Monaco.

Though I support Lewis I will believe this was an accident if it really was. If not, I won't.

I don't know what I find more staggering; the fact that Nico has again benefitted enormously from a mistake, or the fact that Nico can do these things in Monaco and Spa (which Schumacher was publicly crucified for even though it was never proven deliberate), yet somehow Lewis comes out of the episode as the bad guy!! That's messed up.

While I'm at it, there have been WDCs who's deservedness have been questioned. i.e. they may have not been the best driver in the year they took the title. But I have never known anyone have their title denied them in the way that people do not acknowledge Lewis' 2008 title, instead calling Massa the 2008 champ. That is hugely disrespectful.

This year, I think I am seeing it with my own eyes; there is an inordinate dislike towards Hamilton and I don't know what it's about.

I think you like to see what you like to see. I see some Hamilton dislike, yes. However, it's not overwhelming. Did the booing of Rosberg at the podium ceremony imply that people dislike Hamilton? I think not.

My personal thoughts are that one Hamilton was the victim in this incident. Two, he should shut the crap up about what he supposedly heard that Rosberg admitted privately.

One thing for sure, Hamilton is coming out of this looking squeaky clean! He really learned from 2007.

I'm sorry Black Knight, but even if Nico pointed a gun at Lewis and blew a hole in his head, Nico would be squeaky clean while somehow Lewis would still manage to come out of it as the bad guy. :(

I wonder what Keke thinks of all this since he branded Michael Schumacher a cheap cheat who should get out of the GPDA etc? Will be interesting to hear his view. I hope he won't be a massive hypocrite given there was never proof Michael had intent.

I'm a bit old fashioned, just bear with me everyone...

You really want to believe only things you want to believe. In your strange world, everyone is evil and happens to be against "the justice" or at least against Hamilton. Among them are:

1. The FIA
2. The NBC sports commentators
3. Toto Wolff
4. The F1 drivers you quoted.

So far, I have seen no third-party figure of any real authority or respect in Formula 1 pointing finger at Rosberg and saying Rosberg crashed into Hamilton on purpose. This whole situation reminds me the trial of George Zimmerman from a year ago. Guilty of having a bad judgement? Probably yes. But you can't really prove or claim with a straight face there was a malicious intent.

I mean, please. Can we have at least have the usual media trolls like JV or Minardi say something?

Thanks for your view Zak. Well I don't really wanna see something if it's not true and can be open to change my opinion. I am currently considering and re-evaluating Kobayashi for example (sad he lost his drive for his race, but Lotterer did pretty well at least!).

With the booing, Rosberg simply dismissed it as "oh they're British." He doesn't seem to have considered that maybe some of the fan might just want to see sporting fair play and a clean fight.
