Alonso delibrately held up Hamilton in the pit lane so that Hamilton could not get one more fast lap in. Alonso just sat there after the lollipop had been raised. All Mclaren engineers were shouting at him to go, and Ron Dennis is throwing a barney.

You should had a great seeing power, I haven't see anybody shouting, screaming, or doing anything but wait... lollipop raised, but engineers didn't point to exit 'till the moment he does...

Ah touche, was only going on what ITV were telling me, which of course could be completely false.

Gotcha, hehe, you could see it by yourself soon on youtube (until F1 Management find the video... what a bunch...)

Juicy!

9 mins to go for us Aussies

The lollipop was raised which is a sign to get the hell out of the pits, OK normally it is, and he still sat for 5-10 seconds. Why?

You say "normally", if you really know anything about F1 you could remember a lot of moments like this

What punishement will Ron give? He could say to Fenando, "Do it again bonny lad and your out on your lug."

No point in fining him, cash fine won't hurt.

Then, where will take Hamilton the setups for his car?

Well I saw plenty of shouting and bemused looks as to why alonso wouldnt move! Maybe you should look again. And as to where will lewis go ror set up help, he doesnt need alonsos help, he usually beets him.

Then I don't know what I have seen 4 times in 2 different TV channels, THERE'S ANYBODY SHOUTING; even in RTL Norbert Haug says it was a coordination problem on the team... if LH had pushed a little bit more could enter.

LH uses the setups designed by FA on every race, if he has to setup the car by himself... he has any experience, the development of McLaren-Mercedes is only on the hands of Fernando Alonso and Pedro de la Rosa.

Trust me there's no danger there.

I can't stop myself laughing
I'm very surprised by FA (in the case its been done on purpose) , but loving it.
Damm!!! 21 hours for the race

I wouldn't be surprised if Dennis asks the stewards to investigate. Granted Alonso is a great driver, but he'll never be one of the greats for the very things we've seen at the last two Grand Prix. It's bad enough if you stop on a corner in Monaco, that's pretty unsporting, but not allowing your own team-mate to have opportunity to fight for pole is quite another.

What would have happened if Heidfeld went second?

What would have happened if it were the other way round?

I'm not sure Ron would have had the same reaction, however whoever did it, in my book its totally unsporting - although it does spice things up a bit which is never a bad thing!

Assuming he did do it on purpose (and judging by the thunderous look on Ron Dennis' face I would say it was on purpose), I'd love to see the stewards investigate - the Ferrari's don't look happy at the track and the only threat looks like BMW. So even if Alonso did take a ten place drop, I think he would still end up on the podium - so I don't think Dennis has a lot to lose if he did take this option (although I don't think he will!)

Interesting to see what Massa can do tomorrow - what was the problem today? Electronics?

[R00DIT]

i dont know in hungary passing is hard. Alonso did nothing wrong for the sport, just within the team.

[internos2k]

Alonso told that he was waiting some seconds because the need to find the track free. Ok, but if you have this need, you can free the pit for your team mate and go to wait some meters away from there, or proceed slowly, or something else, but i've never seen something so . For me it appears something as a message to the team, because alonso believes McLaren is all against him. Or not?

[Whitehead]

Massa had a communications problem. The car didn't have enough fuel for the lap or something along those lines, and they didn't tell him until half way down the pit lane.

Alonso is really starting to act like a spoilt child, first he gets paranoid that Hamilton is getting preferential treatment because he's English, next he argues with Massa about Wheel-banging and now he's holding his teammate up deliberately in the pits just to get pole!!! He's really starting to do my head in now Alonslow, hope he stalls on the grid tomorrow or even better gets sent to the back or makes a howler of a start and gets stuck behind the Toyslowtas.

I think it will be interesting tomorrow to see what it will happen at the first corner! I don't think that Hamilton accepts this gift without giving to Alonso something back!
