That wea

That was a joke, remember them, but Maldonado does have a web-site "how long sinceMaldonado crashed"

 

Hamilton was completely clear of Rosberg. The over take was complete long before they got to the corner.

Anyway, as I said there are many examples of similar incidents similar to todays, as you have illustrated. I am sure we can all think of many.

 

.... ermmm,wasn't rosberg the one trying to overtake? Yes I know, don't let the facts ruin these things

 

Anybody know the outcome of the investigation between cars 7 and 77? Hopefully nothing but this is the FIA we are talking about here.

 

Well Fred there have been few more expensive ones, since they have just confirmed Kimi has been hit with a 30 sec penalty, handing the constructor's title to Mercedes.

 

Alonso also given 5 sec penalty for cutting turn 16. So now in 11th place and Max Verstappen up to 10th.

"Kimi Raikkonen has been penalised for his last-lap Russian Grand Prix collision with Valtteri Bottas, dropping from fifth to eighth place.

The loss of six points for Ferrari allows Mercedes to officially clinch the 2015 Formula 1 constructors' championship."

Fair enough.

 

That seems an excessive penalty. Isn't the penalty normally a grid place drop for the next race.

 

They decided it should warrant a 10 second stop go, which if it can't be served is taken as a 30 sec time penalty.

Probably not excessive in itself, it just has larger consequences in this case.

 

no, it was the other way around, Rosberg was leading, Hamilton overtook him then moved across the track to take his line while Rosberg was doing a Hamilton and staying on it. Of course everyone blames Rosberg because he's the fluffer and not the star.

 

I agree. Ferrari have always got the ****ty end of the stick from the FIA.

 

"Hamilton overtook him then moved across the track to take his line"

So manoeuvre complete then. Only an idiot would then attempt to stick his nose into a gap that doesn't exist because he was never even level with the car in front at the apex of the corner.

 

Now that is sarcasm.

 

If your rear wheel hits someone front wheel it's fairly obvious you've not fully passed them otherwise you wouldn't make contact.
Nico's done it once, how many times has Hamilton done it? Careful now, you're implying your hero is an idiot. Go to your poster, kneel in suplication and say 50 Hail Lewis's

 

But it was rosberg overtaking Hamilton. I'd post the many YouTube videos but I'm on my phone

 

damn my memory, he failed, but Hamilton still moved across while Rosberg was still on his inside.

 

It appears that ownership of the incriminating video has passed fron Ferarri to Mercedes/Williams now.

 

Ferrari drivers currently 2nd & 4th in the Drivers Championship , and 2nd in the Constructors Championship . Alonso MUST be kicking himself surely ?

 

Shall we just move onto Austin.
