OK.. if the drivers have an agreement of not weaving, then they shouldn't... but I still don't understand all the fuzz about it... Hamilton was in front, he was trying to defend his position, he didn't disturbed any other driver... No danger here for me...!

Petrov made similar movement, why is Hamilton being singled out?


Because he's faster and its a tactic other drivers are using to beat /slow/destabalise him.

The drivers have an agreement, sort of an agreement - obviously a verbal agreement, nothing that has been signed - that you should move only once during the protection of your line. For me it was a Formula Ford thing. It shouldn't have been done, to be honest.

I would consider positioning your car in front of another to block it to be 'protecting your line', in my opinion Lewis was doing the opposite. If it's deemed to have been unsafe but not breaking any actual rules then nothing more than the warning that was given at the time and some clarification on the matter is all that's required.

They can discuss all they want,the warning has been given,it's old news. Mark Webber has the nerve to question Lewis when he blatantly took him out in AUSTRALIAN because he was angry at being made to look like the average driver he really is.

It's just another ploy to unsettle McLaren and Lewis before this weekends race,they can't beat him on the track unless they hold pole position so they go for the mind games.

Sorry but it wont work this weekend. :rofl:

Perhaps during the meeting Lewis could teach the rest of the drivers how to overtake.

Its not like only one race ago Mr Webber decided to play F1 Dodgems with well.... everyone.

Fine it was abit dodgy what Lewis did. But after oz you didn't get Lewis Moaning and Moaning about Webber crashing into the back of him.

I mean its not like he actualy hit anyone or went anywhere near Rubens or Mark.

IMO Lewis was lucky just to get a verbal reprimand and not penalised.

Agreed

But it's been put to rest I think. If anyone does it again, no doubt there'll be a penalty.
