I know what Kimi will say: "Of course it's very disappointed. We didn't get what we wanted. Of course Lewis' move didn't help but it's racing. We still have 5 races to go. Looking at last year, anything can happen. We'll see what we can do."

yeah, as Kubica is the future. Alonso will be great alongside Heidfeld and can help both of them win and the team improve. Kovy is still the weakest of the 6 bmw/fer/macca guys i think - he needs to improve.

I know, but they sacked Alain Prost in 91, so everything is possible. If Kimi fails to finish 3 out of the last 5 races, who knows...

While the stewards are probing the Bus Stop chicane and La Source incident, it is believed Ferrari have also taken exception to a separate element of Hamilton's racing tactics.

Lifting on the straight (after being pushed wide) is not gaining an advantage. :roll:

kimi blocked by swerving more than allowed lewis tucked down the inside, kimi turned in late and hit lewis and that was that. so no, no unfair advantage there. especially since kimi did half his last lap running flat out on tarmac run off areas. (like pouhon). OH NOES! UNFAIR ADVANTAGE FOR KIMI! :(

kimi sucked. deal with it. dont try put the blame on lewis. (well if lewis gets DQd kimi will DEFINITELY be number 2 then anyway. bleh)

I think we witnessed the first McLaren mechanical/electrical/hydraulic failure of the season.
