On the first corner maybe, But I wouldn't call cutting straight across as a racing incident.

When I saw that move I instantly thought that Vettel should've got a penalty for that move, that was such a huge cut. Even if he got a penalty though he would've still got the title due to the safety car later on. He was very very lucky not getting a damaged suspension during that accident!

That's quite amusing. Could've saved countless embarrassing posts if they had said that during the race.

Well the flag wasn't exactly hard to spot over the pit lane, it was clearly red and yellow striped. Surely you guys knew what that flag meant?
 
Lewis always seems to have his bad luck when he is in prime position and therefore ends up blowing a mssive amount of points.... Wouldn't be so frustrating is he had all his incidents when running in P5 for example, but that is motor sport etc.

Skypad shows a yellow flag and a red and yellow flag before the final turns

But the lights are purely yellow.

They're the same as yellow flags.

Never seen yellow lights on for slippery track before either, and why did they stop being yellow down the pit straight when turn 1 etc was slippery as well?
 
Wow Sky are worse than anything that's happened on here. Even after everyone has confirmed it was a slippery surface flag they are still Sky Pad analyzing it claiming he overtook under yellows, even though they can't tell the difference between a flashing yellow light and a solid orange one even after highlighting it in super slow motion!
 
Can't stand Vettel, was hoping he binned it and Alonso drove past with his bare bum cheeks on display. And that's saying something, as Alonso does my head in as well. That said, anyone who wins three titles in a row, easy mode or not, deserves some credit, so....we....well d-d-..donnnnnnnnn..e, that was hard

Gutted for Hamilton

So Jenson car didn't break down in Italy in which Lewis won? As just one example? Want me to continue?

Yes continue, list every point Jenson lost and every one Lewis did.

You can't win an argument by making a stupid argument, did anyone say Button didn't lose points no, Button didn't lose anywhere near as many as Hamilton and Hamilton gained very very few due to Button failures, Button gained from almost every one of Hamiltons failures.

Not only was Hamilton robbed of over 150points, the vast majority of which were car failures or people hitting him off, Jenson has lost in the region of 40-50 points, this isn't close, this isn't remotely close AND you have to factor in who gained from the other losing, Button has probably gained 30-40+ points due to Hamilton's issues, Hamilton has barely gained any due to Button's failures.

Had both had perfect luck all year, Button would be about where he is now, Hamilton would be closer to 150points ahead of where he is, and the champion.

They aren't remotely close, not even in the same ballpark. ANyway, once you list all of Button's and all of Hamilton's accidents/failures then compare who lost and who gained what, then we'll all realise you're talking ****, when you point out one loss for Button and then use this to claim they've lost similar points you're simple, well, making a really stupid argument.

Ferrari can feel proud of what they did with that car, Red Bull that they won, biggest losers this season are McLaren really. Had the car to win the title and failed and also lost their no1 driver to also rans :D

But they were solid yellows, not flashing. Does that make any difference?

As sky has confused the issue again...

Huh? It showed he DID overtake Kobayashi through 2 yellows. What's an orange light?
 
I've just watched the Vettel/Senna incident again and Vettel was over a cars length ahead when turning in, how is that Vettel's fault exactly when he's even taken a wide berth to avoid that happening :confused:

Forgive my ignorance, but I was only aware of yellows and waved yellows. I presume flashing yellow lights were the equivalent of waved yellow flags? Either way = no overtaking.
