What an F1 race this morning! ! ! !
Leave it to genius to run out of legitimate track talk and try to turn it into a personal disagreement. You arent arguing anything but your dislike of hamilton, which is why you've run out of anything legit to say. But I'm not going to stoop to your level, have fun at the bottom.
.
This isnt about you or me, why cant you get over that? Insecure maybe? So because the stewards, who's resume's arent jack, say it make it true?

These dudes have no background in racing, kind of like your knowledge of it. Maybe you should apply to be a steward, would keep things consistent.
Sorry you dont know anything about me to know what I would have done in that situation. It's easy to preach from the stands. But different when you've actually been there. You seem a little bitter, why dont you go for some tea?

. However we must meet on the race track once, it's such a shame you are based in the USA. I was just wondering do I race you with my car or with my bike but I guess roller-skates will do? So, you are welcome to the Nordschleife (Track-time and beer is on me) just give us a shout when ready so we can end this BS of yours once and for all.
I won't claim authorship of this but found it amusing:
" Hamilton was penalized after stewards decided he had not driven a Ferrari and therefore was not allowed to win on a circuit closest to Michael Schumacher's home town. Hamilton was also criticized for driving too fast in the rain and repeatedly passing a red car. McLaren plans to appeal the decision, as soon as they can rename themselves Scuderia McFerrari, in order to comply with the current regulations."

Yes that's exactly what I will do have a cup of tea. I give up, you win, the argument that is.

But I'll make sure you know when I make my way over there.
I don’t see where any penalty should apply; period. Close racing has caused similar circumstances many times without any consideration of a penalty.
While I am a fan of Ferrari, I think this penalty was would not have been considered if the cars were reversed.

McLaren file official appeal against Hamilton's penalty
09 September 2008
The Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team filed an official appeal against the penalty handed out to Lewis Hamilton by the race stewards at Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix. Hamilton was given a 25-seconds penalty for cutting the chicane in the final laps of the race.
McLaren believes Hamilton has done nothing wrong in the final stages of the race. McLaren CEO Martin Whitmarsh explains: "Following our decision to register our intention to appeal the penalty handed out to Lewis Hamilton by the FIA Stewards at the 2008 Belgian Grand Prix, we hereby confirm that we have now lodged notice of appeal."
Hamilton describes the incident as follows: "In the closing stages of the race I was catching Kimi consistently, lap by lap, and with three laps remaining I got close enough to attempt to overtake him on the entry to the last chicane. I managed to get slightly ahead of him in the braking area for the first apex of the chicane. He fought back approaching the second apex - but, in doing so, he left no room for me on the inside line. The only way for me to avoid a collision was therefore to cut inside the second apex.
"I came out of the second apex in front of Kimi and so I momentarily lifted-off on the straight, to ensure that Kimi got back in front. The team also came on the radio and instructed me to allow Kimi to repass, which I had already done. As a result, Kimi crossed the start/finish line ahead of me and 6.7km/h quicker than me.
"After allowing Kimi to completely repass, I crossed from the left side of the track to the right side of the track, passing behind Kimi in the process. I then attacked Kimi on the inside of the first corner, and successfully outbraked him."
Martin Whitmarsh added: "From the pit wall, we then asked Race Control to confirm that they were comfortable that Lewis had allowed Kimi to repass, and they confirmed twice that they believed that the position had been given back in a manner that was 'okay'.
"If Race Control had instead expressed any concern regarding Lewis's actions at that time, we would have instructed Lewis to allow Kimi to repass for a second time."
GAME OVER.

. So very foolish of him, and he will learn to make an obvious let if this happens again. No appeal will help him and I think all this whining is a bit boring now, Hamilton be a man and take it on the chin. The rest is a pointless debate amongst fans and non-fans! Enuf said.

Oh, so sorry. Here's a little afternoon entertainment that perfectly describes you and the sycophantic Ferrari employed FIA stewards:
