Hamilton got a slow start, he then put the car off trying to go past Alonso (unnecessarily) on the outside of turn 3, four laps later he put the car off again while behind Heidfeld bouncing the back end of the car hard on the curb which likely played a part in the transmission glitch a lap later, and then he needed help having to be led through the transmission reset procedure.

I do hope still to see Nico getting pole and taking that lead and then defending. Nico has proven to be a very very sloppy defender, often making multiple moves (which inexplicably he's never been penalized for) and causing Lewis to crash into him. That would immediately start my celebrations and it would be a shame if it happened to be only be the third or fourth lap of the race. That would be a real shame.Nin-Chin wrote:To overboost, Lewis didn't lose 2007 through pressure, he lost it through a dumb McLaren strategy call by leaving him out there on bald tyres despite Bridgestone advising McLaren to bring him in.

Pressure of a final championship deciding race must be different than the rest and I would have thought that Hamilton of all the drivers would have learned this after his experiences. Just a little surprised by his comments really that the pressure isn't really a factor this weekend. Perhaps it is just bravado and he is behind the scenes he is on top of things. We shall see.
