Ok, so I might not be an expert on the subject, simply someone who enjoys the exitement of F1 and the rivalry between the teams and drivers. That said, more and more this year, I have found myself turning off my TV in absolute disgust at some of the decisions made by the stewards. Yes, I am a Lewis Hamilton fan and yes i do agree he could benefit from some 'life coaching' and learn to curb his confidence and some night say, arrogance. Nevertheless, nobody can deny his absolute genius behind the wheel. I'm not so blinkered in my admiration of Hamilton though to agree that he does sometimes take unneccessary risks and sometimes pushes situations close to the wire. But.........."ISN'T THAT WHAT MOTORSPORT IS ALL ABOUT?????"
I, like every other F1 fan have read the line 'Ferrari International Assist' and in the past have didmissed the suggestion but now.......I concur!!!!
How the hell did Bourdais manage to receive a 25 second penalty simply by taking a corner?
Massa claims 'he hit me from behind' - Watch the highlights. (another much needed point to Ferrari).
Anyhow, I'm struggling to write anymore, the blood pressure is rising and I need to calm down abit.........
Lewis - stay calm and do what you do best......drive. If that ain't good enough, paint your car red.

There's a line between taking big risks and taking silly risks. Today's move from Hamilton was of the latter category - the move was way too optimistic and very dangerous. If it weren't then he wouldn't have worn his tyres right down to the canvas in the process. His lock-up was huge. He must have spent several seconds skating along...

I'm not so biased to disagree with you. He did take a silly risk. Whether or not he should have been penalised is debateable though. In a sport where the 'referee' is undoubtedly questionable in their integrity and motives, one cannot help feeling that the race-tracks are not 'level playing fields' when it comes to fair play and one rule for all.

im not doubting he took a risk but he did not do anything to warrant a penalty that is 100% certain even if a Ferrari was doing that and got penalised i would not be so blind and stupid to agree with it!

if that happened in my karting you bet there would be hell to pay! :twisted:

If he had crashed into Kimi and caused a massive pile up would it have warranted a penalty in your eyes then? The only reason that didn't happen was because other drivers got out of his way.

Don't have an XBOX. So you think the judges should all just sit back and let Lewis do what ever the hell he wants on track untill he gets someone killed or injured.

It took one bloody corner for him to ruin yet another Mclaren Vs Ferrari 4 way fight which personally I would have loved to have watched instead of some noob out braking himself into turn 1 thinking he can win the race then and there like a noob.

well it was either he went for Kimi there or waited until the pits i love action i love overtaking thats why i watch F1

You mention someone being killed or Injured well Massa rammed too people today and used the pitlane white line to over take which is far more dangours than what Lewis did.

I suggest you take your Ferrari Blinkers off.

Also if Hamilton did those things i expect he would of received a drive though then grind penalty
