F1 Fanatic

@dt Hamilton made a point of using the same phrase on Twitter during the Belgian Grand Prix weekend and specifically told his million-odd followers to look it up. I don’t think there’s any ambiguity over what it’s […]

@dt Hamilton has said he doesn’t want to get in the way of Vettel’s race which says to me he won’t take any risks at the first corner and as has been said he is more concerned about loosing places.

@dt

And who is Button to judge Hamilton’s decision.

His long term team mate and fellow Mclaren driver?

I dunno, it kinda seems like he’s in a good position to comment on it…

@DT: Good said

@dt Funny, usually the FIA are branded Ferrari International Assistance. I’ll have to bring this incident up next time Ferrari are ‘favoured’ by the FIA.

@dt it’d be better if it worked like the engines: 8 gearboxes per year and they can use them however they want. If they already used all 8 gearboxes and they need another one, then a grid penalty.

@dt
I think it’s worrying in terms of the standard of F1 debate. But that’s just my opinion.

And for what it’s worth, I don’t think Hamilton’s race was ordinary. I’ve never suggested so. He drove a great […]

@dt He was only fairly narrowly bumped out. I think he’d have made the final ten.

And that would have focussed attention more sharply on Massa’s shortcomings as well as the car’s.

@dt No it isn’t, and I’m sick of these lazy accusations.

The article says Hamilton (and Perez) got a penalty and explains why.

That’s it. Nothing else. No agenda.

I’ve been over the lights/flag thing several […]

@DT Unfortunately, I doubt it will. It will take more than 25 points after a pretty disastrous second half of the season to win his critics round.

I’m not over-critical of Hamilton, but I certainly won’t be […]

@dt

Bring back the days of re-fuel

This has nothing to do with the problem of drivers not setting times in qualifying. Qualifying fuel loads are not linked to race fuel loads (and nor should they be).

Bringing […]

@DT yes but you can’t blame the team for makiing poor judgement AND then disregard their advice, because then you are left in no-mans land as Lewis is right now! He can’t make decisions entirely on his own and […]

@DT Webber got a lap in didnt he? Maybe Mclaren could have managed the gaps better but there is no way the team can be blamed for this Lewis seems to be lacking focus. But he has a very clean set of tyres now and […]

@dt

Did anyone realise how Whitmarsh was quick to praise Jenson when asked about the qualifying? What was that all about?

Standard PR tactics. Always push the positive line when someone asks you about something […]
