Head To Head Nico Rosberg vs Lewis Hamilton

[Mephistopheles]

But there isn't a rule in F1 where an entire lap is discounted in the race! that only happens in qualifying, also that sounds like a bloody stupid rule to me...

 

[Lewywo4]

Lewywo4 I'm fairly sure that is what I said, what have you been drinking?

I totally blame Johnny Walker....Meph

[ExtremeNinja]

Yep. I'm definitely not an F1 driver, and I agree that the rule is stupid but I would have been satisfied with a drive through or if the other driver had gone past me so I had to take the place back on merit. I had gained an unfair advantage and that wasn't how I wanted to win and it wasn't how I wanted to be seen to win. The driver behind, equally didn't want the position handed to him although if I hadn't have slowed for him he would have been pissed.

Isn't that just what Nico said?

 

[gethinceri]

he would have been pissed.

Now that's a racing series I wanna see!

 

[Mephistopheles]

Me three..

 

[gethinceri]

We'd be this season's Hamilton & Rosberg Mephistopheles.

 

[olegg]

Was Hamilton in the Maranello?
And if he only choice LaFerrari why not?

 

[Lewywo4]

That had better be the only reason why he was their.

 

[Hamberg]

There

 

[Lewywo4]

There

...............

 

[olegg]

Italian media have catapulted speculation that the purpose was to scare Hamilton Mercedes.
I think this is absurd

 

[Bill Boddy]

Did Hamilton blink?

 

[FB]

Don't worry Nico I have pushed the lock wheel button.

 

[Fenderman]

Uh, oh ...

 

[KekeTheKing]

So Rosberg chose to go last and probably lost Pole because of it. The car really snapped away from Hamilton there, any word from Lewis as to the problem?

Spain seems a long time ago...

 

[FB]

In the press area afterwards Natalie Pinkham asked him what was wrong and he said he had no idea. Think we have to wait for a statement from Mercedes.

 

[Bill Boddy]

Maybe he was trying too hard and braked too late?

 

[FB]

Unusual for the back end to lock up, unless he's running more rear bias. Wasn't that part of the problem in Canada?
