I think a Piquet/Salazar-style coming-together between Hamilton and, say, Piquet Jr should be next on his agenda.Quote:

Anyway, life is too short to prolong this discussion, as far as I'm concerned.
Oh, and you mean sensitive, not sensible.
You conveniently ommitted to mention that both Norbert Haug and Martin Whitmarsh sought out and appologised to Stefano Dominicalli.Quote:

If anyone has seen any of the UK Big Brother, does ioan's attitude remind you of that gobby bird Alex at all?Quote:

Shame I have to point it out, but there you go.
Having reviewed the video of that pitlane incident, it looks as though Kimi was first at the light and was at full stop for a full second before Lewis hit him. If it takes no more than one second for a F1 car to stop from 50mph(80kph) then it stands to reason Lewis had as little as two seconds to realize what was happening in front of him and react accordingly. He was probably paying more attention to Kubica as he (RK) was in line behind Kimi and in front of Hamilton so arguably even less time to react.
BUT, both Kimi and Kubica had time to bring their cars to a stop and not run the light, which leads me to believe Lewis should have had enough time to react accordingly, IF he wasn't busy with something in the car. So in the end, he and Nico can be slightly excused for the blunder (Nico would have had even less time to react as Lewis was already late). I guess that makes them Burros rather than Donkeys.
As for truefan's comments regarding racism, I still think he's way off base. I've read the comments posted in the two threads about this before truefan came in with his remark and I have to say, I've seen MUCH, MUCH worse about other drivers and other incidents. I'd even characterize the prior posts as generally VERY MILD and EVEN-HANDED with respect to calling out both Lewis and Nico. Sorry to beat a dead horse truefan, et. al., but IMO calling someone racist without eveidence is a lot worse than calling a F1 driver a git, friikin idiot or numbnuts for crashing in the pitlane.
Although he managed to take another guy with himself. Really, I think that the reason for people to bash Lewis is that he really talks a lot about how unstoppable he is etc. That makes other drivers more likable. I also might add that the Lewis bashing is hardly as severe as the hate fest, dedicated to Massa after round 2.Quote:
