Alan I'm sorry mate but that's just nonesense, how has Webber held the line when he was behind? HE should have done what Sutil just did when Kubica past him!

couldn't go in the pits....
the pits has lots of fuel in there.
couldnt stop anywhere else.. would have been on racing line
and when the fire just started... how the hell would he know ? he cant just look behind him.

What a load of wank. I know Hamilton is trying hard and you've got to give him credit for trying but he's fucked his own season over these past two races.
And agree that Kovalienen putting out his own fire was ace

yes it is the idea to try and overtake, but not by driving into them.
hamilton was ahead and followed the racing line when going around the corner.
why would he need to go wide around the corner when he was in front?
hamilton was in front, then had to brake for the corner. webber broke later and obviously got too close and drove into hamilton.
As said, I don't know the rules and also hardly ever watch but I'm assuming if you can overtake someone then you're allowed to attempt it. It was a 90degree left hander and Hamilton entered it on the right hand side - Webber simply took a tight inside line, on the left of Hamilton and stuck a nose in just before the corner. I don't know the specific rules regarding overtaking on corners but in my mind it seemed fine. And the fact there was no action taken reinforces that does it not?

ffs races that i watch = boring and nothing happens at all, everyone makes it around with not even a hint of an accident
races i dont watch = fires, safety cars, crashes, aliens frigging everything that makes it interesting to watch

just looked at it again, and after hearing hamilton talking about it, and you do realise he had no idea webber was there.
he probably thought he be close as he'd just overtaken him, but when you think they can't turn their heads properly (hans device) and the wing mirrors don't actually show anything, theres no way he'd of known webber was that close.
that's probably why it went down as a race incident.

just got back to my hotel the race was pretty pants,
pretty sure button didn't turn up,
best bit of the entire race was seeing a lotus on fire driving past.
the tracks shite as a spectator, and i wouldn't recommend it to any one.
better race to wattch on tv.

All motor racing is worse in person than on the TV if you want to see everything.
Usually good atmosphere, though I bet in Singapore theres far more people there with free tickets through business than people wanting to see racing.

Wathing it at the track - you basically get the same views as you would at home (via the maahoosive TVs) but you get a lot more atmosphere
I'd go to Singapore to watch it again

You spend 99% of the time watching Le Mans on the big screens, but you cant match the sound and smells that make up the general atmosphere at home. I was tempted to go to singapore this year.
