Honestly Hamilton had no chance to beat the BMWs and the Williams yesterday.
Ferrari has seen to that by getting Kmi and Felipe between Hamilton and the ones he was chassing. Finally they've got their strategy right when it mattered.
No they didn't.Quote:

Now who's still thinking here on the forum FIA wanted to have LH win the WCD ? as it seems now he might have lossed the championship due to illegal cars driving in front of him..and FIA allows it...they even admit the fuel was not ok !
..Again...Only the FIA can be blamed for making it the mess it has been this season...Not the teams...It's about time they come up with a new rulesbook during the winter..with 100% clear rules so there can't be any discussions and maybe some new people on the top too !
Assignment to Ron Dennis (and his blind followers):
Look up the phrase, "Gracious in defeat."
Next, submit a 1000 word paper on the benefit of how applying that phrase to your lives might make people look upon you more favorably. Be sure to contrast the meaning of the phrase with things such as mass-dampers, flexible floors, and fuel temperatures.
an interesting Motorsport phase...
True, but then again, BMW and Williams were running illegal cars for Brazil, and McLaren, like Ferrari after the first Stepneygate court case (less so after the second one), should rightly feel aggreived because their rivals are getting away with a clearly defined rule breach, which is hindering their title hopes.Quote:

Actually i read somewhere the car had a "neutral problem"--sorry forget where...sounds like he may have got the thing in the wrong gear, did not want to stall, tried neutral or whatever trying to find the right gear...once he did, then he ran pretty good.esp. at the end...but not nearly as spectacular as MS last race there....Quote:

No one can be sure of anything anymore. This leads to apeal and courtaction and endless discussion because everybody can hope to win a case these days even if there is no fact or get awy with stuff even when there is fact. stop this courtyard bulls**. Maybe there are too much lawyers in FIA.
the teams are not to blame (and even less the drivers) for playing this game the FIA set up themselfes.
Certainly. He should be grateful his drivers were still able to race after the court appearance. What is it with some English people accepting that Hamilton and the English Rugby team didn't win. First it was the Australian video ref and now it's Germans! Always with the Germans! :p Be happy that you were up there at the end with a chance of winning rather than being in the same position as Button and Rubens.Quote:
