what is this all about??!! back in the day weaving or defending your position was ok it meant that a driver in an inferior car could prevent a quicker car passing him.. classic example senna at monaco winning the race when red 5 clearly had the quicker car but was as they would term it now blocked by the car in front for 17 or so laps... if the car in front has earned the position why should he yield to the car behind just because in terms of outright performance he has the quicker car..?? i have been an avid fan of mansell forever and have met him in person and consider him to be a better driver than senna ever was and only by mechanical failures and misfortune did he not take more titles than the brazillian.. but i have never once heard him complain about coming second in that race or whining that senna should have let him through and if the roles had been reversed i am certain aaryton would have been of the same disposition...pardon the pun!
