*Better alias??
The move was like the Schumi of old. Didn't mind it was on Alonso because It was an outstanding piece of ingenuity, to go the go-karting line to get better traction knowing that Alonso was on those tyres. Only driver thinking outside the box.
If a British driver did the same move, do you think honestly that Hill will hand them a 20-sec pen??

I read on anItalian website http://www.f1grandprix.it today that Ferrari interpreted the situation as not being allowed to pass during the safety car. Apparently Alonso wanted to pass Hamilton ans was told by Ferrari not to do so as he wasn't allowed to pass and that he would be penalised. It also stated that Alonso had not bothered to fight Schumi when he went for the pass as Alonso knew that Schumi would later be penalised. Probably because Ferrari had told him not to pass Hamilton as according to them, it wesn't allowed. So I guess Ferrari has interpreted the rules different to Merecedes in this case. Too confusing I think?
Here is part of that article of interest.
Il diretto interessato Alonso ha affermato che e' stato "subito certo" che il pilota della Mercedes sarebbe stato penalizzato.
The concerned individual Alonso, has confirmed / said that he was "immiedialty certain" that the Mercrdes driver would be penalised.
“Per questo l’ho lasciato andare,” ha detto al sito spox.com.
"For this reason I let him go, " he said on the site spox.com.
“La squadra mi ha avvertito che non si poteva sorpassare. Volevo superare Lewis Hamilton ma loro mi hanno detto di non farlo.”
"The team had warned me you couldn't overtake. I wanted to overtake Lewis Hamilton but they told me not to do it".

Yeh Lewis was told the same thing i imagine he was lining a pass on Massa.
Lewis would of proberly taken Massa and Kubica then Nando would of ran into the back of Massa and both Ferrari's would of DNF'ed and then Lewis would of been like "lol newbs"
Then nando would of been like "yes it was driver error" and massa would of blamed the tires.

Well cutting out the bullpoo here, given McLaren told teir driver the same thing Ferrari told theirs, it is safe to assume that both McLaren and Ferrari were right and Mercedes were wrong and thusn the penalty on Schumacher just.

But you said Schumacher is God, and and Gods are never wrong.
I'm Confused by your change of sentiment.
Ferrari and McLaren both got the ruling correct, you cant blame Schumacher for his team saying to him its ok to pass. And you cant blame his team because the ruling is open to interpretation especially when there is green flags flashing about!
