Alonso was told to stop the car on the in lap, he waved at Mark Webber if he could get a ride. Pretty cool.jianh wrote:I saw this from one of the website gallery, what actually happened? Sorry I missed the whole race but would like to know. Thanks

Re: 2011 German Grand Prix
Nothing unfair or illegal there. The corner was Hamilton's and he didn't weave around, he just picked a line that didn't allow Webber to benefit from his better momentum on the exit. There wasn't any contact that I could see, nor any public complaints from Mark about the move.
Re: 2011 German Grand Prix
Well, it was a bit rough, but not for a penalty.

Re: 2011 German Grand Prix
I think hamilton didn't deserve a penalty, but don't think was a racing incident. There was not crash, but was because Webber was force to go out, not for hamilton position. This race we see another incident, with buemi, and he is going to be penalizated for next gp.
And some race ago, British Grand Prix, hamilton crash twice with massa, and get overtake him. Here near to crash with Webber. This is a lot of crash when fight, maybe some warning, "do not do it again" would be nice.
No penalizated, but don't allow this way of drive.

Re: 2011 German Grand Prix
I can't agree with your parallels there. There's a clear difference between a wheel-to-wheel fight in the middle and/or the exit of a corner (ie. Hamilton vs Webber and Hamilton vs Massa) AND how you defend your position in the braking zone BEFORE a corner (ie. the Buemi/Heidfeld incident).
There's a clear rule, now set in stone, that a driver may not make more than one change of direction to defend their position on the approach to a corner. Buemi, who couldn't have been unaware that Heidfeld was very close, firstly appeared to defend the inside, thus opening a gap and allowing Heidfeld to move alongside him, half a car length behind; then Buemi moved to the outside, thus closing the gap and effectively pushing the LRGP car off the road; a very irresponsible move that could have resulted in a serious accident. Buemi's penalty appears very light to me when you look at the incident. Think of the speeds they're doing; you can't possibly compare that with the Hamilton/Webber non-incident.

Yes, Buemi + Heidfield is a valid example?Ali wrote: Have you ever heard of wheel-to-wheel racing?
