Where did that come from? beautiful lap from Lewis.
What exactly did surprise you? He was less than a tenth faster than in his first lap.
The surprising part was that all the others were slower in their second lap.
He was over 2 tenths off in FP3, P4 in Q1 or P3 in Q2 it was a surprise and a beautiful lap when it counts the most.

Very stupid of FIA guys to pull in drivers in Q3, especially when weather is playing trick. Too stupid.

Vettel hit the cone at the weigh bridge which could have been propelled into a steward, he then harried the official retrieving the cone . The leaving the scales under his own power too, he could be disqualified from qualifying.

Yeah yeah, it is just the car which got him to the all time pole record :roll:
we get it, no need to come here after pole position and try to diss at the lap
Huh?! What are you talking about? When did I diss the lap or when did I tell it was the car? Stop bringing up stories.

In fact, it should even be considered positive that I told it was not surprising Hamilton improved. It was not surprising because he made much bigger jumps from first to second runs this season.

It was actually, there's no magic. It was quite obvious mercedes is AT LEAST LEVEL WITH FERRARI if not ahead during qualifying.

Come on man, you have made yourself too obvious with the bias. It's ok to let the others say what they want when they have a reason to be jubilant. Just because it is not inline with you, doesn't mean you can come out with swords to fight. Let it go.

it is an automated system, where in random cars are pulled to the weigh scales when the pit entry light changes to indicate the next car crossing should pull in the weigh bridge...... it is a computer based random system used for more than 2 decades now.

Weighing is random, Ferrari chose to come in for softs when they could've set a lap on the SS and they clearly didn't calculate this possibility. The FIA don't think well the rain is apparently coming (even though it didn't at that stage) lets ignore these random weigh ins because then its no longer random.

That does not mean that is a good system, right? FIA interfering with a drivers effort during changing conditions in a critical phase of a qualy session.

Instead of giving Lewis a 3-place grid penalty for impeding the Williams and Kimi, they will not even put him under investigation... :roll: *what a surprise*

Stop making up things. You might think whatever you want from me. I don’t care about pole anyway, WDC is gone already. At this point I’m just enjoying the left races.
All I said was that it was not surprising at all that Hamilton improved in his second run.

What’s more, I already told that Hamilton simply was the best this season and obviously he keeps on holding that level, as seen today. And I’m being honest.

Edit: Why do you tell me that others can say whatever they want? I know that, but thank you anyway. :)

Impeding infringements are reported and looked up only after the qualifying...... read the qualy and race reports from previous races

Its hilarious, but why should the FIA disturb any teams qualifying with their foolishly timed weigh ins?
Not to mention when the rain is potentially imminent #-o #-o
That should mitigate any punishment for what is a pretty serious infringement.

The FIA should know not to interfere with qualifying, especially in changeable conditions where every second matters and which provide enough stress to bring out the animal in everyone.
