Arghhhhhhh Maldanado. Congrats Alonso, leading the championship.... Hope they don't add the weight of that flag to his car and Schumacher!
Even if he had cleanly pulled that move off, Maldonado would have been obliged to give the place back. Clear as day.
That was so dirty from Maldanado Hamilton being up there till so late, I am well annoyed I now think Alonso has got it, said it a few weeks ago even when Hamilton took a lead in the Championship, Vettel will not win it.
Would he? Hammilton didnt have to give his place back to Roseberg in Bahrain! This is the problem with the stewards not making the right decessions at every race, it creates contemot for the rules! IMO Maldanado was at fault although in races gone by it would have been a racing incident, however, I ageree with Moddest Matt that Lewsi was going to lose that position anyway and the incident has ultimatley cost him 4th place.
What a surprise... My poll thread on Maldanado suggested fans generally think he's just got a bit of a temper, but that was a bit ridiculous today. Thought Hamilton was a bit tough on Maldanado, but that was probably due to his rear tyres having gone. Maybe he could have given up the place and just taken fourth, but Maldanado's attempt was terrible (though replays may suggest his car went in the opposite direction from the steering). Feel most for Grosjean and Vettel (though I still think the latter is a dick).
Mclaren strategy with Jenso was a joke. They had the option to pit him and cover webber and Schuey but they kept him out - stupid - they had nothing to lose and everything to gain!
Alonso is bound to get a slap on the wrists for what happened after the race but I doubt it'll go any futher than than. Hamilton should have given up the place but then again he probably wasn't expecting to be T-boned for not giving it up. Roll on Silverstone. Alonso
