well, if you mix up the letters in 'alonso', and add some, and take some away, it spells 'whining cnut' in english.

Yeah, I understand that, however why "green flag" the time from the safety car going in, to the chequered flag?

If the rule is no overtaking, then it must be controlled by yellow flag.

I'm sure I've seen a race end behind the safety car with the SC crossing the line in front of the winner.

Personally, as much as I love to see the cheating boxhead get shafted, I think this is wrong. Safety car went in, race cars crossed the line, green flag, race back on. So what if the rest of the race consisted of one corner.

I think MS was entirely justified to do what he did.

For once.

They make it up as they go along.

Mercedes are to appeal the decision and quite right too.

It's either a race or it's a no overtake situation.

The rules may say it was the latter, but the flags and lights indicated it was the former.

Mansell on Hamilton today -

'Speaking at the Hay Festival, Mansell said: "I think sometimes it all becomes too easy. People have said to me 'what do I think of Lewis Hamilton?' and I've said 'Well it's fantastic what he's achieved but he's been manufactured'.

"How many people from seven years of age have been given £2.5million to go karting?

"I know drivers now are being signed up at seven, eight, nine years of age. They're all being picked now, and this is the incredible thing that is so disappointing for me, to be Grand Prix drivers in five and seven and 10 years' time, and that negates everybody out there now doing the job, and that is frightening.

"I don't decry what Lewis has done, when he initially started having tough times he didn't handle it very well, but that's the first time ever in his life he's had a tough time." '

Sorry,which part of his statement are you refering to?

Mansell was a racing driver,not a X Box 360 player with paddles on his computerised steering wheel,and he didn't have 2.5 million to play around with when he started racing,put Lewis in a manual box racing car and he couldn't live with the likes of Mansell,Hill,Clark etc,actually having to manually change gear,F*uck off,I'll break my nails! :P

If you are off more than half second you don't earn any extra money.

How'd people do on the qualifying? I just missed out. Arrse!

I swapped one of my drivers for Webber just before the database closed.

which was nice...
