As to why Hamilton only got a 9, maybe it has something to do with the fact that overtaking was impossible and Hamilton didn't need to do much to keep the lead. http://www.crash.net/f1/news/182501/1/mclaren_only_won_because_of_qualifying_and_pit-stops.html Hamilton drove a great race, but the hard work was done on Saturday where they clearly had the best car. Vettel took dominant wins last year and got 9's for it.
Seb showed last season that with these tyres qualifying is key to most victories and that it's more important than the race. Any driver who gets into clean air into the first corner mostly run off into the distance even without a RB7.
Off topic. I wonder if some juveniles who idolise wished-for, pseudo-heroic, father-figures, realise that such silly words would simply embarrass their idol? Here's a polite and impersonal suggestion for anyone who who feels the above sentence applies: if you're going to be the standard bearer for your man, grow up and represent him in a fitting manner.- - -o0o- - - I would be happy for this comment to be removed when any offending material it refers to, which embarrass the forum, is edited for improvement by its author; or, failing that, also removed. ©
Don't make this personal Manny. Grow up. p.s. Manny, you still haven't commented on whether it was a great drive or not? And just in case you wish to re-read this thread, those who thought Hamilton deserved a 10/10 for the race were tomtom, AG, Kyle & Silver. Harldy 'Hamelots' are they? If you are still upset about MSC and his dire performance, maybe you should step away from the sport for a while and calm down. I'd love to make an anaolgy about summer holidays, long days and too much cheap white cider that some just can't handle ............
Cosi, would you mind if I took that quote ("Cosi's Law") and placed it within my signature with all due credit?
If you think it would help improve some of the behaviour in this forum, I'd be happy for it to be used, Tom. P.S. I'm pleased you appreciate it. Hopefully, it will not be too long before the necessary action is taken.
So we've now has westy's law and cosi's law. Anyone fancy some murphy's law? [video=youtube;jg-hGECPrSI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg-hGECPrSI[/video]
