felipe lied twice during drivers conference? he said he did not see him on his side. then when told the replays proved he was lying about this, he changed his story.

i heard lewis talking about putting his arm around felipe during the minutes' silence and he sounded calm, which people usually do when telling the truth.

but felipe was talking fast and stuttering, sounding like people who are making it up and lying as they go along. :nono:

i think felipe has major resentment towards lewis winning the 08 title unfairly in his view because of the singapore result.

Q. What is your view of the Lewis incident?

Felipe Massa: My view is that I was in front, I braked later than him and I was in front, I was on the grippy area as well and then I started to turn and I didn't see him on the left as he was behind. He touched my rear wheel. So, to be honest I don't understand why I have the penalty. It is not really understandable.

Q. You say you didn't see Lewis, but watching the replay since it seems to indicate you looked three times in mirrors?

FM: I know he was on my side. But when I braked, this is the important place, not when you are on the straight. When I braked, he was not on my side. So, I turned because I braked later than him. I cannot understand why I am supposed to back off and let him by, no? I braked later. He was on the dirty side. And then I turned and he touched me from behind. He did not touch on my side, or wheel-to-wheel. If it was wheel-to-wheel I would not try to close the door.

Q. He said he tried to bring an end to hostilities after the minute's silence? He put his arm around you and said have a good race.

FM: No, he didn't try. He didn't try to do anything. When I tried to speak to him he passed through. He did not look to my face, so no. Not here. Here after the one minute silence he was at my side and then he just said, 'have a good race'. So this is trying to what? Have a good race? Is that not part of talking, or whatever?

Sorry but whatever he's saying, he just sounds retarded. Look at the last few lines, wtf is that...its like coming from someone mentally 'not all there'...I wouldn't take one word from Crier seriously. He's never recovered from the mental anguish losing 2008 to Lewis, and well, that's just too damn bad. :drink:

Ah well, you can't polish a turd.... :rolleyes:

Actually yes you can, see Mythbusters.

With my mod hat on, this has been extensively discussed previously, so I am going to lock this thread to avoid the same driver *bashing*
