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.

That was an awesome lap by Hamilton, even with an extra one lap of fuel he woud have been 2/10 ahead.

However, considering Virgin had a 5 place penalty a couple of race ago for notifying their gear rations a little late, I can't believe the FIA won't impose the same on Hamilton.

Maybe they weren't pushing 100% in Q2 though, right? That could be part of the reason, no?
I dont think so, at least not the way it looked to me.
Looking on the sector times for all cars and how hard vettel was pushing in both sessions, i'd say Hamilton did a better overall job, look where his teammate is.
Montreal is to Hamilton like Turkey is to Massa.
For Sure!!

Clutching at straws? LOL What did Mclaren do wrong? I'm sure the FIA got their sample. He could have beached it right after the finish line if he wanted.

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.

€10000 fine for Hamilton for not getting back to the pits fast enough after he ran out of fuel.

It looked cool and you know it!

The spectators enjoyed it. Coasting down, taking in it all in, waving to fans. Patting down the reliable and powerful Mercedes power plant. Picturesque finish and nice marketing gimmick for Mercedes engines.

Hami haters don't like to see the BOSS shine. They wish it were their driver perched up on the side pod looking all heroic waving to the fans.
:lol:
For Sure!!

Read raymondu's link, there may actually be grounds for a penalty.

Right, that's like a hundred bucks to you and me...

You are thirsty for a penalty aren't you? :roll:

I don't think that applies to Lewis' situation.
For Sure!!

LOL - You think I'm that biased?

Strange, I was jumping up and down with delight when he snatched pole. Just as I do every time driver storms through like that. I support the sport, not a team or driver.
