Why didn't they bring him in sooner?

In my half awake state, I thought someone was asking about an actual F1 spoiler for their car.
D'oh!

swmbo and I were shouting and swearing at the TV. Might have been his decision to stay out, but the team should have overruled him the lap he lost 8
seconds to Alonso. Still, it all comes down to the wire in Brazil.....

Sounds like our house!
His interview was very politically correct. These guys know when they are on the pace - down to the tenth of a second. Not sure what was going thru
his and the pit team's head when he dropped 7, 2 and 3 seconds on Alonso in his last 3 laps...
Oh well - keeps it interesting for Brazil. He only needs to finish 3rd right?

He would have had more grip on slicks than he did for the last 5 laps or so on those worn inters 
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I'm over the moon at the result
I think that Hamilton will be a much better driver for a lot longer if he DOESNT win this year - and I really want him to be an absoloute great for a
long time
I think that this result has helped him a great deal and I was extreemly happy to see him maturing as a driver by going into the garage and shaking
the hands of all of the team whether they were working on his car or not.
Yeah okay hes annoyed but he did the right thing by keeping on his helmet so he couldnt be pestered by any pap's or reporters instead of doing
an alonso and breaking stuff in a fit of rage
Hes ina very good position to win it at Brazil
Isnt it nice that the championship is still alive in a 3 way battle right down to the last race

Hamilton would have still been in a good position for a win had he negotiated his entrance into the pits correctly.
Simple driver error although I'm sure some on here will blame Max

Its almost like it has been staged to give a nailbiting finish - perish the thought
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Bit hard to get disqualified from a race you didn't finish, and McLaren are already not earning points.
I don't think the tyre wear rules count on wet tyres anyway. Massa wore his front left slick down past the stripe though...

It was a shame but it'll make for a real nail-biter in two weeks' time. Plus of course he's still got a 4 point lead so as long as
he doesn't do anything stupid he should still bring it home.

Guess he had to make a mistake at some point, but not a good time to choose
You have to blame the team for some of it didn't they remember Mansell at Australia in '86 or more recently Kimi in Germany last year, as
said above I was yelling at the TV to bring him in for about 3 laps prior, they could have fuelled to the finish & at absolute worst guaranteed a
safe 3rd which was all he needed
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.
