Video? I missed the accident.
Lewis apologised, fair enough.
Yep. And acted very well and didn't rant at stewards or team.Quote:

I heard an interview and he didn't say that.
He said " I got a penalty for something, which happens sometimes, I appologies to Paul as I made him run off track. I just didn't see him coming round"
nearly killed someone with the dumbbutt move of the season, but it is okay, he said I am sorry or whatever
Just goes to show how easy it is to get misquoted.
I don't think Lewis actually had enough time to get the spear out from the cockpit - let alone throw it, so killing someone was unlikely....Quote:

So , he either simply mis-judged it , which is unlikely , as they were clearly too close , or his adrenaline got the better of him again , and he was thinking only of himself .
Instead of letting them through and losing a few seconds , he lost the drive-through time , around twenty(?) or so .
The question here is whether Lewis travelling backwards on track , spinning his car into traffic , expecting others to avoid his move in the centre of the track at the exit of a chicane where there is only one line at racing speeds , warrants more than a simple drive-through .
Whether he has a record of questionable moves this year or not , this move was stupid , and , in my opinion deserved far more serious consequence .
He did some great driving today , but that move was too much , sorry or not .
It is good he apologized , and I hope he learns not to do so again .
