bud wrote:True but gesticulating because someone cut you off is slightly different to some beating you fair and square.Does gesticulating at other drivers really ever achieve anything? It's the same in F1; it happens and in most cases it's forgotten about in a few hours! Alonso's actions were not needed, Petrov did beat him fair and square as you say but we are still arguing about it when Alonso and Petrov have probably forgotten about it!
Like you said you can understand the first scenario even out on the public roads, alot of bad drivers out there lol.

I'm a Ferrari fan and have been rooting for Alonso and Massa all year.He would have needed to come in 4th. 6th would have just gotten the tifosi harassing Robert Kubica instead.
But you die hard Alonso fans really shouldn’t be whining about the fact that Alonso should have come in 6th instead of 7th to win!! What kind of victory is that? The most exciting finish to an F1 season in years, and your mad that your guy didn’t finish 6th?!? That’s no way to win a championship, how lame would that have been? 3rd in qualif and then 6th in the race and woohoo he is world champ!?!?!
Vettel brought it all year and he won in style with poll in qualif and #1 on the podium in the final race when he was behind two other guys! He deserves it and Alonso choked.
Yeah party in the streets because I guy finished 6th in one on the most exciting F1 final races in history... That would have been great…. (rolls eyes)
