He always comes second in those. Except Spa last year. Hamilton seems to be able to be that bit harder in wheel to wheel battle
I don't think he is mad at the first corner incident as it ultimately and for most of the race played no factor in the outcome. He already passed hamilton fair and square on the track and from there on was ahead of him in control of the race until his mistake. I think he was probably mad at his mistake and the realty of not winning the championship. I also wonder if the pitwall gave him the hurry up and warned him of not to let vettel through.Quote:

I think he is also suspicous about the error he made to give Lewis the lead. He seemed to be sending lots of messages out.
That was a fantastic race. Unfortunately I couldn't post anything during the race because AT&T's network was apparently a bit clogged up...
Anyway, great result for Lewis, and the wet-to-dry conditions made for an interesting race. Very apparent that the Red Bull was very strong in early grip-limited conditions, before the pendulum swung dramatically back to Merc and Ferrari as the track dried. Some great fights up and down the field, good showing by Alex Rossi and what about Max Verstappen!
Very glad that the rain abated. We were pretty soggy by about lunchtime (as the rain was just about wound down) and managed to just about dry ourselves out by the time the race started.
I am very 'appy to see Jenson up in 6th ands I hear Alonso was running 5th with his new engine before it lost power, dropping him to his third 11th place in a row. I know there were safety cars etc but it must bode reasonably well for next season.
Great result for Verstappen too - another 4th! Only Vettel has ever also scored as high a result as that (and higher) in a Toro Rosso.
And yet another strong drive by Perez to 5th - he now has over twice Hulkenberg's points!
I tried to watch this one but didn't have much success. I can only watch F1 on RTL and my german is very limited. There are so many commercials on RTL that I missed almost everything. Everytime the broadcast came back on after commercials the order was completely different and I had no idea what had happened as I didn't understand much of what they were saying. At some point the commercials ended just in time for the safety car and when the safety car went out commercials started again:laugh:. I don't have a clue how Alonso and Button got to 5th and 6th at some point. What a waste of time...
What a fantastic race. One of the best races in recent memory.
Lewis won it in style. I don't see what Rosberg is complaining about with in the first corner incident. Hamilton had the line and overtook - it didn't seem intentional to hit him me and it was just hard racing.
So Lewis finally walks with the greats now and he can continue his journey in style - what an amazing driver.
Lewis pushed Nico off track twice!! I think Nico should have let Seb passed him at the last lap, then some justice.
