    Nah, not really. I think they both expressed the same opinion slightly differently.

    Well, Mercedes did do well and Schumacher was outqualified. Again.

    I have to say, before qualifying I found myself almost hoping Schumacher would qualify well, maybe even get pole, to give us old hoary bygone-days fans a little reminder of what we tuned in for race-after-race. Instead, when you get right down to it, Schumacher was very average.

    Again.

    I cringed a bit as Brundle talked about Schumacher getting pole 69. Never going to happen.

    Are you mentally dumb or something???

    Drivers are forced to have a microphone put in their face and answer questions in the heat of the moment, yes they sometimes answer it wrongly but he was giving his honest opinion not having a go on the team. You seem to have a go at Hamilton at every opportunity you can.He is giving his honest opinion on whether it was wrong or right to save a set of options and yet you are here criticizing him for being honest.

    If you dont like him just change the channel when he comes on the TV or if you dont like what he says just mute the TV when he comes on.

    Rant over.

    Anyway great performance from Nico to stick it third ahead of Lewis. Michael will be disappointed and even more when surely their will be a stewards inquiry in to whether he blocked Lewis in a way that compromised him.

    And yet again immense lap from Seb.

    Will be interesting race for the podium tomorrow.<ok>

    Maybe Turn 8 happened. Or the bumps at Turn 12. Whatever it was, it happened to everyone else - equally.

    Could Massa be the one in line to surprise with his strategy

    No run in Q3, extra set of softs, but also a choice of tyre strategy

    Sounds like straw-clutching but I'd love to see it happen.

    Be careful carno, I dont think ones allowed to point out the idiocy in the posts of others on here

    I got a warning for pointing out that a poster calling an entire nation lying thieves was factually incorrect

    When do I have a go at Hamilton at every opportunity?
    It just annoys me that when something does not go 100% right for him he always seems to say or imply that he wanted to do the 'in hindsight' correct thing but the team did not, if that really is the case then you either make your own call or go with the team and stand by it, you do not go with the team and then question it afterwards.

    I am hoping that Vettel/Webber have another crash and Rosberg comes through for the win. However all I can realistically see is a Red Bull 1-2 seeing as they have the fastest car, P1 and P2, and have an extra set of fresh tyres for the race.

    Many drivers have gone with the Teams call then afterwards questioned it.

    I remember in Hungary last year Jenson wanted to go with the Primes but the team went with the options and in an interview he said it was the wrong decision.

    In Japan 2010 he got his wish when he did his qualy laps on the Prime.

    It seemed to me that you were implying that Lewis always has a go at his team.

    For Nico I reckon it will either be a hard fight for second with Mark, or an easy run for third. I just feel Lewis will have to bit his lip take control and hope he gets forth or better without mad man Kobayashi saying hi towards the end .

    Agreed

    That type of nastiness should not be allowed, then other posters pointing it out wouldn't be needed

    And receiving warnings wouldn't happen

    Explain?
    Obviously I do not want them to get hurt, which you do not these days in collisions. I just want them both to DNF so it is more interesting.
    There is no need to be so touchy.

    I do not remember him saying anything about that, link?
    I think I am justified in saying that Hamilton has had a go at his team a few time, while other drivers when things do not go 100% right for them seem to take it on the chin a bit more and understand that nobody has perfect 20/20 vision, even Alonso last year in Abu Dhabi when Ferrari cost him the WDC did not have a go at them.

    Why is it stupid?
    I think people are getting a bit oversensitive.
