Grosjean fucked as well!! Nando getting a free run now

 

[Nando]

Pretty gutted for Romain, he's a top bloke but luck has deserted him so far.

 

[Kenny]

Nice bit of confusion. Kimi seemingly did a bit of over taking under the yellow flags.......everyone presumes he is under investigation for it but it is Hamilton being looked at. Didn't see him do anything and no replays of it yet.

No further action. Kind of think the stewards made the wrong call on which car to look at.

 

[Nando]

Ooops!

 

[Kenny]

Hamilton and Maldando hit and Lewis is out. Maldonado at fault I would say

Schumi could be grabbing 3rd here!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Definitely Maldonado's fault, just wiped him out.

 

[Kenny]

Off the track and into the side of him. 5 grid penalty for him next race, surely

Nando wins, Kimi 2nd, Schumi 3rd. A Podium of Champions indeed

 

[PuntsWolf]

Two drivers who just won't give in. Bound to happen.

 

[Nando]

Lewis should have yielded, but it was stupid from Pastor. No question it was his fault.

Lewis held his line didn't he. Pastor needed to use his brain a little and wait. He would have had him at the DRS zone easily as the McLaren had zero grip.

Don't let your Lewis hate cloud your judgement! The guys of the track, he loses all rights!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Can't see where Lewis could have gone once Pastor had failed to make the overtake initially. Not a happy chappy anyway.

 

[Nando]

I don't hate Lewis, I'm delighted he hasn't finished for the Championship, but Pastor was always going to pass him.

Exactly so why didnt he wait? Maldonado tried to bully him off the track. Hamilton is one guy you are never going to be able to do that to.

 

[wombourne wolves]

Hamilton has every right to feel aggrieved about that incident. How anyone can lay the blame on him is beyond me.

 

[Nando]

Because Pastor's an idiot, I'm not sticking the blame on Lewis at all but it's just my opinion that he should have yielded once Pastor was alongside. There's no point fighting when the tyres have gone, you can't do anything about it.

 

[Kenny]

he should have yielded once Pastor was alongside.

So remove the racing element then?

He knew Pastor had failed, held his line and got rammed out of the race. Hamilton did what any driver should do in that situation and race to hold onto a podium position.

 

[PuntsWolf]

There was two laps left. When pastor was off the track, he should have filed in behind. Lewis then buys himself a few seconds. Who knows, he could have held it.

 

[Nando]

Pretty much, that's the big issue with the Pirelli's. You can't fight when they've gone.

If you can't fight then Maldonado should
Have just waited for his gift of an opportunity.
