Theres somthing about the first corner, Maybe theres been a spillage of oil on the track or somthing, as Bruno Senna AND another driver both made a Very similar mistake in the GP2 support races yesterday, its either that or there just trying to hard to get a good line out of the corner and missing the apex, thus making then loose all traction and spin the rear wheels.


if you heard what lewis said after the race it was a downshift that locked the rear wheels causing the spin.

I have to disagree it was a great drive. It was hamiltons spin at the beginning that gave the lead to raikonen and he then let raikonen build up a huge gap. It was only the rain that saved him.

Didnt deserve the win.



I very much disagree. Anybody who manages to bring a 900bhp car that weighs about as much as a fag packet home in one bit on slicks deserves to win. Raikonen let the constant pressure of Hamilton get to him and binned it in the more difficult conditions where straight line speed couldnt help him. It was the length of the main straight and high speed sections that helped Raikonen, not his skill over Hamiltlon. One word sums up this season.... SILVERSTON. Boys looked like boys and men looked like men. The fact that Hamilton drove with hardly suitable tyres over a second a lap quicker than anybody else shows his skill above the rest of the feild

Well, Ferrari have got their way again. Lewis gets a 25 sec penalty for cutting the chicane and is dropped to third. >_<

And that's 2 weeks after Ferrari get away scot free after the pit lane incident. There's no way he gained - he was ahead into the corner, went off, came back on in front, let Kimi pass, then overtook and got rammed up the rear by Kimi around the next corner.

But Ferrari can do no wrong.

Monza next week too, they'll want a red car winning that.

Thats obsurd! He let him pass, then re took him. There should be a boycot of the sport for this. Not sure how it would work tho.

Except for when hamilton spun it the dry, of course.

Actually it was a wet track, that's why Picquet started on intermediates.

Sorry, i fail to see how hamilton cutting the chicane and not letting kimi back past makes Ferrari cheats? The only reason kimi got to the first corner first is because he out-dragged him.

Obviously now il be shot down in flames because lewis hamilton can do no wrong. >_<

The last few laps were really exciting, now they've just rubbished the whole race again. Why can't they announce which races they want to fix first so we don't have to waste time watching them.

LH did give Kimi the place back, drove round the back of him, then overtook him before La Source, where Kimi then gave him a shunt for good measure.

Charlie Whiting even said to Ron Dennis that they had complied with the rules.

Yes, ferrari are cheaters.

Look At Michael Schumacher In One of his last races, Hungary i belive it was, Jenson was in for the win, but he couldnt handle that so cut every single bit of the track he could, every chicane infact, did he get a penalty for it? no because he drives for ferrari.
