Re: hamilton!!!!
Oops, another penalty this weekend, and in characteristic fashion again, he fails to realise his mistake. So just for him and any other Hamilton fans out there...
Hamilton was penalised because he was deemed to have cut a chicane when he passed Toro Rosso's Sebastian Vettel on the first lap of the race.
The rules dictate that a driver is not allowed to gain an advantage by going off the track.
It was the second consecutive race in which the 23-year-old had fallen foul of the race stewards - he started the French race with a 10-place grid penalty for crashing into Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen in Canada two weeks ago.
Hamilton made it clear he felt he should not have been penalised in Sunday's race."I thought I overtook reasonably fairly into turn seven," he said.
"Going in I was ahead but I lost the back end and corrected it and went over the kerb, which I don't particularly see as cheating or anything like that but those are the rules.
"I don't think I did anything. I believe I was ahead on the outside.
"I couldn't turn in on the guy, or we would have crashed, so I took the outside line, lost the back on the marbles and went over the kerb and continued.
er hello
"I don't think he gained a position by being off the road," said Dennis.
"It is our opinion he was past before he got squeezed off the circuit. No position was gained. There's nothing to be gained from saying anything else." He overtook fine, there was nothing agaist the rules in that
The FACTS are..
If instead of a painted line, there had been a wall, he would have parked it. He clearly gained an advantage. If he had given the place back there would have been no discussion or penalty.
Thing is, I really want to like the bloke because I think he has the potential to be truly great. But atb the moment he just comes across as an arrogant kid. This behaviour is only mildly acceptable in the most driven of people and even then it's tiresome.
Advice Shut up..suck it up, and get on with it.
