I'll respect Lewy the day he'll be able to talk like this. Till then...

:up:

Coudn't agree more. Those are the words of two very good drivers and two respectable drivers. So Massa had problems refuelling so he had to come back in? Makes sense now.

P.S I thought you were off to bed? :p

I was still looking for the Ferrari drivers comments on the race and when I found them I thought hat it was worth posting, just to put a bit of perspective on Lewy's behavior. ;)

Off to bed now! :D

Alonso for spinning and then having the gall to tell his crew over the radio that it was his gearbox.

And I do not really recall MS verbally insulting other drivers like LH ....


Yesterday, it was how he deserved pole because he had the ability to adopt to conditions that no one else had, and then as to add even more insult to the talents of his fellow drivers, rather crudely implied that he was not worrying about them overcoming raod conditions by saying :""For me, more of a concern is the safety cars that there probably will be tomorrow, and not getting caught out like some of the drivers were last year. I know Fernando was caught out, and in the last few years Juan Pablo Montoya came out of the pits with the red light, and also Felipe (Massa) last year.""

Well he appears to have grounds to be smug this time, for he was sure right about needing to be watching out for that nasty old SC and that red light, :eek: now was he not?

Never drink your own kool aid until after you have won it all, and retired!!!

Amen to that :) I wonder if Hamilton will blame this on all those back of the grid monkeys :)

Lewis
Rosberg
Several strategists.

Sutil owes Lewis for this one. Shyte happens and Lewis had a lapse.

:)

Just found this quote from Kubica

"I have to be grateful to Lewis as he chose Kimi and not myself."

LOL

As for myself, I am delighted as it gives me plenty of material to work with. And here is the prime example: Yesterday he is off bragging about his own abilities and how much better he was than anyone else at dealing with conditions.

Might be true about his skills, but when anyone talks like that about themselves, they just ask for a negative response. Better to let someone form the team say it, while he remains all humble and happy

And speaking of same, from that same set of comments comes this:

"For me, more of a concern is the safety cars that there probably will be tomorrow, and not getting caught out like some of the drivers were last year. I know Fernando was caught out, and in the last few years Juan Pablo Montoya came out of the pits with the red light, and also Felipe (Massa) last year."


So the stoppage of cars should have been NO surprize to Mr. Hamilton, but rather than to come right out and say, "gee i can not believe this happened, etc" it is: "IF I cost Kimi the race" and so on.

really?

Why was he losing nearly a second per lap to Kimi leading into the stops? And if the race was sown up, why was he leaving pitlane in 3rd?
