Lewis Hamilton has won his second race of the season after starting from pole at the Canadian Grand Prix. Jenson Button completed the McLaren party by coming home in second place, ahead of Fernando Alonso. The Red Bulls finished in 4th and 5th place.
True, but he was also repremanded, whitch means that he will probably have to watch himself for the next 2 GP at least.xpensive wrote:Right, that's like a hundred bucks to you and me...ESPImperium wrote:€10000 fine for Hamilton for not getting back to the pits fast enough after he ran out of fuel.
plus the preferred race line in pretty much diagonally across the start gridlebesset wrote:vettel clearly said that on this occasion there is little difference between the 2 sides of the track
the track hasn't been used for 2 years , some surface is new , it keeps raining overnight and washing away what is deposited
normally you do better to qualify 3rd rather than second , which surely has got to be wrong
actually, it looked.. priceless!ringo wrote: It looked cool and you know it!
can someone please enlighten me how the whole reprimand thing works? cos this is his second one this year right? how many are they allowed to get and for how long do they last?ESPImperium wrote:

Its the 3rd I think, But im certain the reprimand has to be the same reprimand to be penalised.zenithbeach wrote:can someone please enlighten me how the whole reprimand thing works? cos this is his second one this year right? how many are they allowed to get and for how long do they last?ESPImperium wrote:

cos i have a feeling its just bullsh*t.. or has a driver actually ever got a penalty after being previously reprimanded? :S
I got a question. Do the rules that he broke state what penalties drivers should get?zenithbeach wrote:can someone please enlighten me how the whole reprimand thing works? cos this is his second one this year right? how many are they allowed to get and for how long do they last?ESPImperium wrote:

Would you heap the same praise upon Jenson for doing something like this? No you wouldn't. And you haven't. You and others have said that the fact that Jenson has more wins and4 more points than his teammate have been due to wins that weren't really wins because he won on strategy. You constantly point fingers of racism and bias and you are just as guilty. It was a great performance from Lewis, that's not an argument it's fact. But you and other don't, haven't, and will not heap the praise on Jenson for the same thing is just plain lame. You're just as biased as the people you point fingers at.ISLAMATRON wrote:Ray, you are always more than welcome to not come to the site so you dont have to endure the endless praise given to Hamilton for a job well done.Ray wrote:Don't get me wrong, I think it was awesome to see him just blow everyone away with that lap, but the usual emotional responses come out and show the real biased folks around here. Had Mark done that, alot would be boohooing about how he needed to do that to beat <insert drivers here> or how that anyone other than Lewis was cheating or some other stupid reason. It's getting really lame to hear stuff like this other than rational responses to great performances.
Exactly my thoughts.WhiteBlue wrote:...
To demote Hamilton for the team screw up would be rather sad. On the other hand the teams know by the reprimand that they cannot systematically under fuel their cars and get away with it.
Yup, its been a revelation this season with respect to driver error.MattF1 wrote:Exactly my thoughts.WhiteBlue wrote:...

Something like what? The Pole or the car riding/pushing? If Jenson got the pole on merit I would have no problem acknowledging his accomplishment, just as I have no problem admitting that Hamilton's pole today may not be truely a great performance(as you put it)seeing as he was on the softer tires... but Hamilton once again destroyed his teammate in qualifying.Ray wrote:Would you heap the same praise upon Jenson for doing something like this?
