Singapore Grand Prix 2010, Marina Bay Street Circuit - Race 15/19

Think Kovy did the right thing imo bypassing the pit lane and parking it on the circuit, better for it to properly catch fire in an area where all the people within striking distance of it will be wearing flame retardant clothing than take it down the pits into a throng of people in shirts!

Problem is the marshalls always seem to be nowhere near the accidents in Singapore so he had to put it out himself!
 
Where was Webber to go? Just smash into the wall to the left? Lock up and smash into Hamilton anyway? The move was not complete.

back off earlier.
It was obvious Lewis had the line and was ahead. It is now Webber trying the overtake move and went inside where there was clearly no line to take especially at that speed. Webber was extremly lucky to not take himself off.

I think the view from Hamilton's car is crucial there - the front of Webber's car isn't even a little bit visible to the side, which not only shows how far back Webber was but also (given those crappy mirrors) how little visibility Hamilton would have had of him.

Perhaps a bit silly to cut across so much (and he did not leave a cars width to the apex at all, whoever said that earlier) but apportioning blame is hard, they both could have avoided that happening but doing so would have likely meant losing out on the position - neither wanted to lose out and so they ended up coming together.
 
apportioning blame is hard

I don't really think so. Lewis did everything within reason at the time to ensure a smooth pass. He has the racing line, he has the track position, 9 times out of ten that is enough.

That sort of move should end up with a broken right front suspension arm, as we saw with Lewis at Monza. And with Lewis at Monza, I certainly didn't try to justify the move, it was stupid. That exact same thing could have happened to Mark, but he has cashed all of his luck into this one moment to pull out a remarkable feat of annoyance.

Let's face it, Webber's performance concerning vehicles in front of him isn't the best and twice it's been Lewis that has fallen foul of a misjudgement. Webber got it wrong, and it turned out completely right, but one of these days he isn't going to be so lucky.
 
HD probably in 2011?!

Surprise surprise Webber crashes into someone again.

Indeed the guy is reckless...i just hope that Hammy can pull it back and put Webber back in his place...id hate to see Webber win the F1 championship...hell id rather Alonso win it:eek:

Will be great if its in HD next yr:)...but not holding my breath...ill believe it when i see it.
 
On a different note, can we ban the word Hammy?

It feels like posting with a bunch of children every time I see it :(
