I heard a rumour that Ron Dennis is trying to hire Sato for next season........................................as a kamikazee pilot.DT_Xtremez_28:

 

[Goatherdingsplitter]

Again these ar$ehole stewards turn what to me seemed to be a fair race, into a farce. I'm on the verge of giving up watching F1 and just wait for the stewards verdict.

Yet again a race winner has to be decided behind closed doors ffs DT_Xtremez_32:

Can my thread be put back in the motorsports section!

Can my thread be put back in the motorsports section!

I am p*ssed off with moderators that move threads for absolutely no reason.

Can someone own up to have moved it?

Nobody is agruing against each other and it doesn't warrant being moved!!

 

[gemarriott]

Sorry mate it appears it was me that moved it totally by accident. I merged 2 threads one of which was in fight club and didn't notice when I merged them it moved the whole thread there.DT_Xtremez_42:

I'll put it back in motor sport now

Thanks GEM.

 

[rest have risen above me]

What annoys me is the fact that they let all the celebrations happen etc and then come out with the decision. There should be a time limit. I'm sure in horse racing when they say a stewards enquiry that they delay the prize giving. It's not as if they can't get the info straight away is it? The other problem is that the decisions are made in private by people we can't see. At least in football I can see the blind git making the decision.

This has all left a bitter taste after the best race the F1 circus has put on for a long time.

Oh well Monza next.

8913 sigs on that petition now with mine added the following comment.

When are you going to let racing be racing and not fudge the results because your favourite team missed out.

Just about says it all, I have had what for me is the most exciting race of the last 2 seasons wrecked because the Ferrari loving stewards have fudged results

Gem. Thanks for fixing your error.

As far as the appeal goes, hopefully the FIA will see sense in the fact that Hamilton was way faster than Kimi and was more that likely to overtake him into La Source regardless of his route through the Bus Stop.

They may bring out a rule clarification too!

Roll on Monza!

Errors are easily fixed

but you are still ugly!

FIA = Ferrari International assistance.

When are they going to get off McLarens backs? They really do seem to be out to get them every which way they can. I found a site last night that shows the stewards enquiries from the last few races. Most of ferraris infringements were sorted by fines, Mclarens were all grid penalties etc. And they wonder why people have stopped watching F1. It's pathetic.

I wonder if any Italians signed up ?

I dont normally watch F1 but i sat down with mono to watch this race. I actually found myself cheering and saying ''go on!'' a lot!!! It was one of the most exciting finishes i have ever bothered to watch and am quite peeved by the ''unknowns'' decisions. Mono explained about LH having to let Kimi back into 1st place, which he did, and then quite fairly over took him again. And as for using the escape route, what was he supposed to do....crash?

 

[grumpyoldb]

It's just been noticed, that just before the chicane incident when both of them had to avoid Nico Rosberg, Kimi overtook Lewis under a yellow flag and yet the stewards did not question him about it.

Interesting view on overtaking and whether it's worth the risk or not, it does seem the FIA want more races like Valencia!

Now it appears that Niki Lauder has stepped in with his "worst judgement in F1 history" blast.

Lauder seems to have summed it up pretty well, IMHO...


"a perverted judgement."
