I reckon that would make it more enticing for him - upstage him yet again
Err not at Spa he didn't and it was 4 wins each
Even Alonso haters must now admit he and Hamilton would put on the best show.

the penalty is a joke as it discourages interesting and entertaining racing. This was a classic conclusion to a Grand Prix. I haven't been this excited about an F1 race since Senna and Mansell sparred at Monaco in the early '90s. Lewis and Mclaren did not deserve this and I am pretty shocked tbh.
Hamilton should have turned back on track simple as...he gained an advantage, even though he let him go passed him it was such a tiny gap but he was closer to him than he was into the chicane, he went in to fast into the chincane and lost it, school boy error, two in one race.
One of them is supposed to be at every race to allow some consistancy, after some of the aweful decisions in the past (usually favouring shumacher and Ferrari)

Can I ask what you're on about?
I was referring to a Hamilton/Alonso partnership at Ferrari (ok, it'll never happen..), and Hamilton can show Alonso how it's done again.
how whats done? Alonso killed him at spa last year
If youre seriously suggesting the partnership would be the same as under Mclaren you know nothing about F1.

lol
lol going into the chicane he was by his side so he couldn't of been any closer! And no, he didn't gain an advantage, as explained countless times before in this thread.

Have you just started watching F1? Did you watch ANY of last season?!
I know nothing about F1? Ok mate, if you could actually READ some of my posts, I think you'll find I know a **** load more than you.
so the technical argument is out the window then if OCUK have explained it
i was at the race today, dont be a nob and read my post properly and stop acting like a fanboy

There is no "technical" argument.

Yet again, you've proven that you don't read my posts.
In fact, why the **** am I bothering even talking to you? You clearly think I'm some ranting "fanboy", when I support Ferrari, yet agree with pretty much everyone else on here that Hamilton did not deserve a penalty whatsoever.
Lewis said he "got straight back in his slip stream" something he couldnt have done if he had gone around the track, I guess this is where Ferrari might argue, like how they argued when Alonso's slipstream slowed Massa down in qualy
Look at the videos and tell me where he was slip streaming KR.
So is that a yes or no that Ferrari's conditions are the same as McLarens?
given that schumacher avoided Dennis like the plague, anyone with any talent left, something Hamilton threatened to do after Monaco 07.
I dont think it was a penalty, I used to race karts and this is quite pathetic, but anyway the FIA have McLaren data and Lewis said himself he got straight into the slipstream. So I imagine the decision does have some merit, just very inconsistant.

I don't think they have Mclaren data yet as that's what they are planning to appeal with.
The decision is simply mind boggling to say the least. I was literally stunned when I first heard.
