Kamui, what the hell?!?

That was 90% LH. Koby was side by side with grass on one side. He had nowhere else to go and LH just took the 'normal' racing line assuming kkoby wasnt there.

Kamui, Lewis, what the hell?!?

Amended... Kamui was leaving braking off till very, very, very late... but Lewis pulled out into Kamui's way very slightly before the incident...
 
Kobayashi is a danger to other drivers and as such should be at least suspended. :p
 
Another freaking advert :rolleyes:

So, SC out. SV takes another pitstop but if his graining continues, he has bigger issues.

MSC into the points!
 
Vettel's competition just keep getting into situations which make this championship easier for him than it already is. :indiff:

Didn't really see how that was Kamuis fault, glad to see that you amended that.
Commentators saying that Kobayashi turns in on him, but I don't really see that. Looked to me like Hamilton was coming back on to the racing line and moved over on Kobayashi who was legitimately beside him. Reminds me of the Hiedfeld-Toro Rosso incident in Germany.
 
Which is why I said "amended"... it wasn't Kamui's fault. At worst, 50:50, but I'd call it 80:20 Hamilton/Kobayashi. Racing incident.

Yeah, apparently, Lewis wasn't paying attention to his mirrors. It was surprising, actually, how fast Kobayashi was pulling up on him, considering Lewis had his DRS wing open... but Lewis should have known he was there.

Spoke too soon?

I should start predicting Vettel wins. Would make the season more interesting. :lol:

Now it's all about Ferrari versus Red Bull. Vettel has an advantage, having pitted for tires... but let's see what Alonso can do...

Unfortunate truth, even if it isn't his fault everybody else is tripping over themselves :indiff:

He has to get past Webber now in the safety car train, pity Webber has old tyres.
 
Lewis did not expect that from Kamui. That situation was like the small geek taking out the bully :p

Racing incident IMO, Lewis tried to take normal racing line, Kamui went for the pass and it went wrong.

Yep but it kinda shows Lewis's arrogance again imo. ("He is never as fast as me, oh damned, I was wrong, again.")
 
I see that as being mostly koby's fault. Where was he planning on going? There was mo way he could go around the outside, he should have dropped behind him and he would have had a better run into the next corner.
 
Vettel takes the lead. He probably has this race if Alonso can't challenge him.

Edit: That is if Vettel can manage those tyres, as people had said.

I have seen plenty of passes around the outside of Le Combe in the support races already this weekend, so it is certainly doable. In fact, just as Vettel just did to Alonso.

That's exactly what I meant. Im a Lewis fan, but unlike others (with other drivers) on here I can see his flaws. He really should be more cautious and realize there are other cars on the track apart from the Red Bull's, McLaren's and Ferrari's.

Rosberg win? Far fetched but this is F1 (hopeful thinking).
 
Vettel is on his last set of soft tires. Have they given them an extra set? If we go by his form previously, then he will destroy this set within the next nine laps. After which he only has primes.

Vettel and Alonso, very clean racing there. Alonso knows he can't hold Vettel back forever... but he knows he will still have a slight tire advantage down the line...
