But the point is that he ended up much closer to Raikkonen than if he'd backed off and actually gone round the corner.
NO he wouldnt have, Kimi went defensive and did not take the bus stop as he normally would in doing so costing him time, if Lewis had followed Kimi through the corner instead of trying the overtake he would have easily had the better exit speed because
A. he had the racing line, while kimi covered the inside!
B. His car was handling better in those conditions he would have passed him in at la course
im appalled that some of you actually agree with this i thought we are all racing fans here? feel ashamed of yourself as i am ashamed to follow such a sport which funnily always leads us to these kinds of debates
if you catch my drift,
but this has happened many times without penalty before
He had the racing line going into the corner, but the line he actually took made the second part of the corner tighter (well, it would have been if he'd have gone round it). Therefore, would he have had better exit speed? Doubtful, isn't it. Not impossible, but doubtful.

Point is - it was a very important decision a race changing incident.

Precisely.
So it needed to be seen to.
hang on you agree he took the racing line so how come you say the second part of the corner would have been tighter? doesnt make sense.
Lewis had the correct line for the chicane which includes the second part of the corner. Kimi on the other hand went on the inside losing entry speed and compromising the mid corner and exit! if Lewis was following him through theres no doubt he would have been right on his tail!
but what i'm trying to say is pretty much that if you consider the new Bus Stop as two roughly 90 degree corners in close proximity, which it more or less is, then Raikkonen was on the inside for the first one and Hamilton had the line going in, but because Raikkonen was in front he could move to the apex from the right hand side of the track, whereas Hamilton was on the left, and had they both gone round the corner Hamilton would have had to take the corner using a line that would've given the corner a more acute angle in comparison to Raikkonen's line...[if you catch my drift,

i dont think it should matter if its 1st and 2nd or 15th and 16th,
im not liking where the sports going atm, i liked watching this race, always want renault to do well, but f1 as a whole, not good, i have my doubts
looking at the vid a few more times, hamilton was just plain faster and didnt really use kr slipstream for more than a fraction of a second when he dived from outside to inside, and if indeed he was slower than kr over the line he was just plain faster down the hill
