Lewis was on an out-lap, no penalties for holding somebody up if both are on hot ones.
Where will we find out first if Lewis gets a pen., F1.com?

Protest by Williams has been rejected by stewards... firstbit of good news for lewis all weekend.
Great job by Hamilton. He is certainly the out and out fastest driver in F1. Much like Senna. 
The race could well be a snooze-fest as it is dry and the RBR cars are far too fast to be touched by anybody. By rights RBR should get a 1-2 here.
Alonso must do all he can to prevent Webber opening up too big a lead in the championship today.
From what Ferrari are saying, they think that Suzuka is going to be RBR's strongest race of the 4 races left, so as long as he gets through this without giving away too many points, Alonso can attack Webber in the remaining 3 races.
If Webber gets a win today, then the championship could be out of reach of everybody except for Alonso (and Webber), however, I think Vettel should be able to deprive Webber of the win.

Hamilton did a great job, considering everything that's happened this weekend. I know its bad to wish peoples demise, but if webber and maybe even Vettel fall off the track, and Hamilton/Button wins, that would be a good thing, would certainly tighten up the championship battle.

WTF? 
I've always wondered, if anybody knows, they always talk about the gearboxes being sealed, i'm assuming they are allowed to change the ratios? This sounds like a daft question, they must be able to, but they keep talking about them being sealed to it made me wonder.
If think they are allowed to change the ratios, seems daft if they're not allowed to. Take Monaco and Turkey - they former needs short ratios, where the straight on Turkey requires longer ratios. Though I think these have to be changed under supervision of the FIA.
