I hope that one day Davidson will prove he is up there too, it's nice to see a small team scoring points and beating the big boys in F1.
Most of us do, but there are always a few crybabies. I really fail to see any problem with what LH did, Im quite amazed and shocked anyone could see anything wrong with it at allQuote:

He got the tow, Raikkonen went to the inside, MS tried for the outside and failed. He had to try three times before he got by him. IMO also great and clean racing. For those who have forgotten, here's the clip where MS manages to take Raikk by going even closer to the wall on his 3rd attempt.

...and if Alonso was having the faster car, he could surely have tried again making sure that LH couldn't block him by moving to the inside.
Oh, and Racehound, I think "..in indy at mid race Fernando was faster than Lewboy, so he shoulda got out of his way, not run him out towards the wall!!!!!...." that this is a VERY weird comment. So I guess Massa should have left Raikkonen through too? Teammates cannot race each other? OMG! If you perhaps were one of those shouters if MS and RB didn't race each other, than the irony would be complete :rolleyes: Just be happy that there is still some racing out there and enjoy, even if it's your favorite driver that doesn't win because he fails to overtake. I know it can be frustrating, but that's sport, no?
i wouldnt expect any understanding of the situation coming form someone named after probably 1 of the stupidest sections of track in gp history........how many big crashes have we seen at Tamburello over the years?....and they STILL didnt put a row of tyres there by May 1 1994!!!!Quote:

What surprised me more was that FA didn't attempt it again in the next few laps, it looked like he backed off for some reason.
This is the most ridiculous thing I've heard so far.. :laugh: Perhaps he should have used another track to try to pass :laugh:Quote:

I don't think Alonso backed off during the following laps more like he couldn't stay as close to the back of Hamilton through the infield part of the track as he would lose a lot of downforce through the corners.Quote:

Presumably, FA caught up with LH in prior laps to make lap 37 a meaningful passing lap - looking at that UTube footage again, they came close to touching wheels in T1, there might have been some team chatter after that.Quote:
