The FIA has decided to give five second time penalties to drivers Jenson Button, Rubens Barrichello, Nico Hulkenberg, Robert Kubica, Vitaly Petrov, Adrian Sutil, Tonio Liuzzi, Sebastien Buemi and Pedro de la Rosa for failing to meet the requirements of the lap time when the Safety Car comes out. This will make some changes to the results which we will have shortly.

Podium stays the same with Kobay moving up to 5th? But why 5s penalty the equivalent offence is a drive though which should be a 25s penalty.

I thought the smallest penalty they could apply was a 25 second penalty. Don't think I've ever heard off less than a 25 sec penalty

Thought it was DC being a red bull ambassodor and EJ being king of the underdogs.

As webber said it takes two to tango thing is you can't ask a racing driver not to race.

One thing that did annoy me is when they were asking Horner about it after the race, Horner typicly said "mark is not at fault" eddie then responded by saying "well i'm sorry i totally disagree with you there" and rather than discuss the point horner rather chidishly just said "well i somtimes disagree with your shirt choices eddie"

Horner is an absoulte w***er.

Heikki at fault. Not really something he did badly, nor intentionally, but really a result of having the huge speed diferential.
He hesitated giving way... and Webber was incredibly faster than him.

The way that F1 handles the safety car is a JOKE !
They need to collect the field and set the order correctly the way they were running and restart them in order. The racing shouldn't be dictated by where and when and IF the safety car comes out.
That's politics not a racing performance competition. Close the pit lane until they get the leader. Or go back to the order just before the "yellow". Or SOMETHING ! This waiting at the pit out crap is stupid.

he's showing his true colours...agen!!!


Lewis clipped Vettel at the start, almost took him and Vettel out. Passed the SC (maliciously or not... doesnt matter). What are the true colors you want to see? in fact.. had it been "normal" Jenson would have finished ahead of Lewis the rat.

In the end, i think it was a race control BIG F-CK UP... (not necesarilly Lewis at fault) which was obvious as soon as the trailing cars went into the pits before everyone and the SC cut in front of the race. I cant believe it took the idiots about half a race to realise there was some incredible stupid thing they allowed to happen. :banghead: one thing is a lottery... another is an obvious stupidity. I didnt even watch the end of the race.

By the way, Alonso had every right to be hoping for Lewis to lose pts. He's the one they're after for the championship.

What a monumental farce.

Firstly, i thought the SC was supposed to pick up the leader? :confused: If they'd just gotten that right then all this mess would have been easily avoided. Then to make things worse for themselves, they take ages over what is a pretty obvious decision with Hamilton. Dang, the guy is like the old Schumacher with his luck sometimes, that penalty was basically a nothing price to pay for being able to change his nose without losing any track position whatsoever! And on the subject of Schumacher, what the hell was he doing pitting from 3rd on track behind the safety car, when he could easily have done what Kobayashi did?! No wonder they were shaking their heads on the pitwall.

So LH makes a mistake (whether intentional or not, it makes no difference) that landed him in 2nd. It took the FIA 20 laps to investigate and for LH to serve his drive through which did not change the outcome. If the FIA handed the penalty in 10 laps (which should have been sufficient time) maybe LH would not have finished in 2nd. But some people argue that why do you want the FIA to give penalties so quickly? No one is saying that, but 20 laps come on :rolleyes:

Now to the blatant blindness of some people on this forum. It's the same deal time after time. When LH makes a mistake, it's considered minor or unintentional and somehow Alonso gets blamed for it :banghead: It's become an old record...

Reading some of the posts and how some people portray FA as this evil man because he dared to question LH's move as if Saint Hamilton :rofl: would not have done the same!

Ignorance is bliss to some people and that is why they will come out and bash me for saying what I say but I learned to ignore the ignorant little bullies on this forum :whip:
