    Surely Hamilton should have got a grid penalty too? He started the whole thing.

    There you have it folks... Clamp him in irons.

    I also heard that Hamilton is personally responsible for the rise in price of 9p beans.

    Never said it was right or wrong it's just human nature if you have ever driven a car then you would know that without a doubt. I see it all the time.

    This is actually a good point, also explains why Hamilton had his hand raised before there was even contact. I reckon he'd backed off to give Pastor a hand gesture, had a little swerve and Pastor lost it. It wasn't really anything bad on Hamilton's part, but he doesn't do himself any favours.

    I'd say it was Maldonado that had a gripe from the previous incident and was attempting to stick it to Hamilton as he went around him. It seems to me like Maldonado was intent on his move to cut up Hamilton, but I don't believe he intended contact.

    Pastor did not crash into Lewis on purpose otherwise he wouldn't be starting the race tomorrow (provocation or not this action would not be tolerated). Pastor simply had big under steer and this caused the collision, the reason he got the penalty was simply because of making contact. Hamilton's reprimand is harder to figure out though but it must have been for that slight change of direction after the hairpin when Pastor was trying to go around. Anyway that how I see it, should be a great race tomorrow dry or rain.

    Thank you, a McLaren fan with common sense. There is no way on earth that pastor maldonado would crash his car into someone else on purpose. He isn't involved in a championship battle, and he isn't named Pastor Schumacher. Thanks for the modesty.

    I don't think Hamiltons 'swerve' was anything of the sort, he was off line on the wet with slicks, put a little too much power down and the back stepped out.

    Who knows miggins we can only guess what went on in the minds of the drivers at the time, schumacher has never admitted deliberately driving into Hill in 94 but it is obvious he did.

    One thing that can be said about Senna is he did eventually admit to purposely taking out prost, so kudos to him.

    This isn't on the same scale but one things for sure neither driver is going to admit what really happened.

    True...

    It's odd that we've spent all day talking about this rather than the last minute of Q3. That was cracking stuff. :)

    Looking forward to the race!

    He never admitted to spitefully ramming Mansell off, in what was expected to be his last grand prix at Adelaide '92 though. :p
