Formula 1 2008 - Lewis Hamilton's year (?)

[Rooky9]

Flushy will be a happy man. Not gaining 4 to 6 points on his rivals here will probably be very significant come the end of the season.

[Rooky9]

Kubia to be World Champion before Hamilton  2/1

Hamilton never to be world Champion 7/1

The longjectivity of these bets would make them difficult to take though.

 

[Royal Flush]

I think Kubica has a real chance today

Who was on?

[AndrewT]

oops..bit of a crash there...

How Raikkonen didn't give Hamilton a smack there I'll never know.

Hamilton will be sent to bed with no dinner this evening.

I wasn't far off, if you accept that getting demoted 10 places on the grid for the next Grand Prix = getting sent to bed with no dinner.

FFS Thats nightmare for lewis like. Flushy what price would u expect for hamilton to never win a championship

Rosberg same penalty

Raikkonen's penalty for going into the back of Sutil on a straight bit of road in Monaco? None

Both driver errors and Ferrari aren't punished. Shock horror.

There's a difference between a racing incident and getting red = stop, green = go mixed up though.

kimi lost control of his car, lewis ignored warning signals.

very different.

it's not like it's the first time the red light's come on on that track in the same situation, both driver and team should've been aware

Both driver errors

I agree there is a difference though, one of the cars was red.

it's not like it's the first time Kimi has been round that track in the same situation

I just don't see how driving into somebody can be punished in one situation and not in another. He didn't swerve to avoid anyone he just couldn't control his car and made an error. The sport is a bit of a joke at the moment.

[TightEnd]

I completely disagree. Kimi's was on a damp track and he lost control at speed and had nowhere to go

Lewis was in a pitlane, with a red signal with two stationary cars ahead..it was pure carelessness.

I am not a great Ferrari fan, so this is not bias, but I don't think you can compare the two incidents

[gatso]

but what offence do you think kimi was guilty of? he lost the back end of his car.

lewis was, I assume, punished for 'causing an avoidable accident' which is an offence under F1 rules and has a max penalty of a 10 position grid penalty

[Dino]

But if an unnecessary safety car hadn't been called then the accident would not have happened, clerk of the course's fault.
F1 will be like nascar soon,OO a piece of paper on the track, throw a yellow.

[Josedinho]

Let me be clear, i'm not an expert on F1. I take a passing interest and enjoy watching the racing.
I'm not arguing against you it is just in my opinion that if you crash in to somebody and it costs them the race then the same punishment should be suffered.
Loss of control of car or carelessness are both errors at the end of the day.

That is plain ridic, i haven't seen yesterdays race yet (all i know is i run good on which Polish outfit to back) however to suggest that every time a driver takes out another driver in racing conditions is just crazy. They push the machines to the extreme and there are always going to be accidents, there are rules in force to punish people if they do something stupid that could be avoided (known as doing a Coulthard) but racing incidents do happen, losing control of your car is something you can't be punished for.

Hamilton is still a bit of a donk.

I am not sure, its one of those bets in reality i would never make given the money will be tied up for 10 years, the Kubica before Hamilton one though i deffo want to get on. I think Kubica is the best driver in the sport and if he can pickup a ride at Ferrari then he is golden.
