pit teams are getting inters ready for the moment that the safety car comes in. could be interesting as it is going to wang it down in 20 minutes

fairly stupid move by Hamilton on Webber there.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

3 corners of proper racing before Hamilton hits someone, utter prick.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

well - he had the inside on the first corner but he went too deep and was bound to hit webber. Now Schumi puts Hamilton on the grass. Going well for him today.

Wasn't Lewis' fault at all. Webber turned into him.

They seem to need a good 3-4 laps to get into sync, unless your name is Seb and you blitz everybody on your second lap....

McNish was definitely at fault, why there's no protection for the stewards/cameramen I don't know.

The bottom line might say this but unlike F1 there's a lot more to how it came about. So I would in detail partly disagree due to the Ferrari being considerably slower and there was a racing line even if it was disappearing. You could also argue that the reduction in power introduced on the LMP1 class were an unintended factor too, although that's more ifs and buts.

I'm just glad no-one was hurt. I absolutely hate racing accidents and despise the ghoulish idea of some who believe they're part of the entertainment of the sport - they're absolutely not.

Webber gave him a load of space. Hamilton at fault.

Now Hamilton hits Button. Fucks sake.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

However, that was bloody stupid.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

and to top it off, the pillock parks it on a corner to get the safety car out.

button on the radio "What is he doing?????????"

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Webber backed out of the corner when he saw Hamilton coming to give him more space, Hamilton then shown his place by Schumi, great stuff.

What a surprise the fuckwit that thinks he's above the rules and everyone should bow down to him is fucked, good riddance.

 

[Nando]

The bloke's a pillock.

Webber left him plenty of space, but Lewis understeered into him.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

He's just an arrogant cock, thinks he can do what he wants, whenever he wants and everyone has to get out of his way.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

So did Schumi and Senna in their day. However, Hamilton isn't close to them in terms of talent. Button on inters is brave, as it is going to rain very soon*. Get the safety car off and this could be a good race.


*correction - it is raining already

A bit like a certain German multiple WDC winner, then.

Nice guys don't win in F1. It was stupid but they're racing incidents. I don't think Lewis is arrogant at all.

 

[Nando]

Lets compare the difference:

Alonso gets a run at Vettel, much closer than Lewis was to Webber and backs out. Lewis sees a slight gap and rams it up the inside with no idea of grip levels at full racing speeds.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

I've always thought it about him, think him having the opportunity to come straight into the sport in one of the top teams and getting straight into winning races made him that way, he didn't have to start out in a lower placed team and fight tooth and nail for scraps like many do. He's a spoilt brat in my opinion, the way he reacts whenever anything goes against him is pathetic for a professional, i hate him.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

drive through for button.

fuckbags

 

[MARKakaJIM]

For what? Gently drifting across the track like every other driver does? Wasn't exactly dangerous driving was it.

Jenson Button went straight into a top team.

I think Lewis is very self-focused and an individual rather than a team player. However these are characteristics you need as a top F1 driver. You don't like the guy so I won't talk to you about him any more, there's little point.

Exceeding the speed limit under the safety car (you aren't allowed to beat your best sector time).
