I can't spell fullstop so it's no surprise.

Hamilton's crash with Kobayashi was definitely a racing incident imo. Both drivers could have done something to avoid it, but I wouln't blame either of them.

Agree with this, we'll still have people wanting Kobayashi's blood though.
Good race here today, didn't go my way though. Poor haul from Ferrari, all things considered. Great drives from Schumacher and Button, fair play from Maldonaldo getting points.
Hopefully we get this race on BBC next year and aren't left shafted by the Sky Sports deal.

Pastor said something like:

"It's bad because I got a penalty and he didn't... and as we can see today he needs to be more focused in such incidents... maybe he should stop with these kinds of movements."

For those that missed it. Priceless. He really needs to be spoken to by the FIA.

I'm fairly sure I read that Monaco and Spa are on the BBC's list.

Didn't think that was too bad tbh. Saying they were good friends though? Clearly mental!

Oh god, can lauda be banned from f1

Flibster · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:16

Lauda - it'll be Hamilton's fault. Even before he opens his mouth I know he's going to say it's his fault.

Psycho Ned · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:16

Why do they always wheel out Nikki Lauda when Hamilton has an accident he always gives him a kicking!!

Guerrilla · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:16

Really enjoyed the race today, glad for Button, Webber and Schumacher all three of them had great races.

Edit: hehe crazy Lauda.

oldbag · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:16

Oh dear.

Glaucus · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:17

Wow lauda contradicting himself in the space of 20seconds. No one to blame, racing incident. Well done you finally worked out what was happening.

Also watching that replay LH actually drifting left fir a very long time, showing what his intentions was for the corner.

98p · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:18

great race well done button.

I think they classify drifting over to the left as turning over to the left.

Kobiashi should have let off, he wasn't going to challenge Hamilton so why even bother :/

Oh well, it's all over for the championship.

Dr Who · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:21

Nice to see people giving Button the respect he deserves, take note Tamara Ecclestone.

Reaper 392 · 28 Aug 2011 at 15:25

well, F1 was its usual self this week. red bull 1-2 with vettel being the 1 and someone crashed into hamilton ruining his race

i know hamilton's bumped into a few people himself, but he's certainly received more than his fair share of knocks
