...in the hairpin.
Which is the correct decision.

The tunnel was most likely driver error. Massa was forced onto the marbles and along with being in the disturbed air from the McLaren he had no grip.

I admire's Hamilton's tenacity and natural ability, but I think he's made some stupid moves today.
The move on Schumi was great, but he was lucky Schu let him thru. That could have been a collision and if so it would have been Hamilton's fault.

The hairpin-incident was braindead, too.

Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

LOL, if Alonso were to win, will there be an investigation to determine if Massa crashed on purpose?

A genius strategy to get button ahead of Vettel – that's what.

So Alonso is looking to run half the race on [edit] Softs to the end of the race..

Is Vettel attempting to do the same on the Softs from lap 17..??


Are they both playing the 'track position is king' tactic? :o

I honestly think they'll get punctures before that happens.

Race stewards mind-fart of the race: Drive through for Paul di resta. It was a racing incident for crying out loud!! :evil:
I really wish this incident had happened after the Massa-Hamilton one so I could see your reaction (and bias) then [-o<

If you are going to troll or try and call people out use PMs.

When it had happened is irrelevant. If you read my comments you will see that I wnt there to be consistency between the 2 incidents, which there has been. The drivers involved is irrelevant.
