One of the big talking points from the Hungarian GP.
From Hamilton's point of view, it was absolutely the right decision as he finished ahead of Rosberg and reduced the points deficit.
From Rosberg's point of view, it potentially cost him the race win and an extended lead in the WDC.
From the team's point of view, they possibly lost out on some WCC points, but that is largely irrelevant as unless both cars fail to score another point for the rest of the season, Mercedes have that in the bag.
If Rosberg had the speed and ability to pass Hamilton, then he should have done so.
The team can't seriously expect someone to slow so much to allow their team mate who is somewhere between 1-2 seconds behind to be able to breeze past them, can they?
Especially considering both drivers are in a battle for the title.
This race more than any other reinforced my opinion that Rosberg doesn't have the same ability to make crucial overtakes as some of the other drivers.
Several times in the race he was stuck behind cars he really needed to pass but couldn't.
Granted, Hamilton also failed to overtake Alonso towards the end of the race but there's a big difference between Alonso and Vergne.
How is this going to affect the team for the remaining races?
It could be gloves off now and every man for himself.
The poll is anonymous so don't be concerned about being flamed for the way you vote.
I can't promise the same for any posts though
