The 'we was robbed' thread.

Point your accusing finger of blame to the muppet(s) you feel robbed us of a grandstand finish - what an anti-climax;

Stand up Jamie - give that seat to Daniel. Fool :mad:

It seemed Buemi was the biggest contender to be ousted, but if he doesn't turn his results around fast this season, he's not going to be in F1 much longer.

Hamilton caused that by backing off after the apex

FIA for the stupid red flag rule. Nobody should be allowed to touch the car except for starting up the engine.

Alguersuari was very unlucky - he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Hamilton had to brake hard so as not to hit Sutil, and Jaime couldn't do anything to avoid him. I believe he was driving a fine race until then.

In any case, if there is someone to be replaced at STR, Alguersuari takes the cake.

It was Alguersuari, not Buemi.

That is correct, I should've phrased it a bit more clearly though.

I feel it was wrong to restart the race full stop, but if that was the decision then certainly no work should be allowed on the car. If they want to change tyres, wings etc then it should be done in the pitlane once the race resumes.

I think that the race should have just been ended after lap 72.

I agree. Keeping tires warm would have been OK, but working on the cars and changing tires just didn't make sense. At least they raced to the finish.
