That BBW locked up the brakes, left quite a skid mark.

F1er wrote:I never said anything about team orders and am not claiming that there were team orders at Mclaren in 2007. Just saying that Lewis would have had more of a comfortable time and been more motivated to win at Mclaren knowing that everyone was behind him 100%.nish2280 wrote:"Now that the rules are a bit clearer i can state that only the British think that Lewis was not favored which just shows how deep their ignorance is."So your parents never had a favorite child?????????????

I just didnt see enough from FA given what was on the line.If he ended on the wall along with Petrov (or not) I'd say (he tried)

Nando would have needed the Merc of Nico to have it's tyres go off as well (or Nico to make a mistake). To expect an F1 driver to put his life and another driver's at risk by crashing into wall trying to pass at 300Klms is ... well, I'll try and be kind - rather a silly thought.F1er wrote:You really are blinded, the Renault was faster in a straight line, Petrov "drove well and didn't make any mistakes", it wasn't reasonable to expect even a two time WDC to pass in those circumstances.scotty wrote:When Lewis tangled with Web,people called him inexperienced,rookie,etc etc.(at least he tried) when he plays it safe,maximizes the points,he doesnt have it!F1er wrote:it is in the drivers hands to capitalize the best result! everything else is an EXCUSE!That's a pretty black and white view...

What's Burning? wrote:The point of Alonso not passing Petrov or at least trying some desperate move to pass him is that it would have done him no good... he needed to also pass Kubica and Rosberg and there simply was no time or tires left for that. His race was lost when he/Ferrari decided to follow Webber instead of Vettel.I agree with you. I believe that he must follow Button and try to overtake him at the pit stop or just copying Vettel, still easier.
