These were teammates who, if they worked together, should have gapped the field over the next 30 laps and created a safe buffer within which they could then do battle amongst themselves. Within that initial period they could take advantage of each others mistakes and use pit strategy to gain an advantage. Rosberg taking unnecessary risks at that juncture was poor strategically and selfish as a team member.ETMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-88475124926706005182014-08-25T13:16:35.230-04:002014-08-25T13:16:35.230-04:00To even think that an F1 driver leading the champi...To even think that an F1 driver leading the championship would risk his<br />front wing on purpose isn't really thinkable for me, did he mean to tap Hamilton’s<br />rear tyre...no I don't think so at all - was it his intention to slot in<br />behind without breaking his wing or giving Hamilton a punture...yes I think so.<br /><br />I’d say more end plates have fallen off hitting rear tyres than rear tyre punctures<br />from end plates so to think he can give him a puncture or whatever on purpose<br />and come out of it on top is ridiculous.<br /><br />I’m appalled at the interviews Toto and lauda gave sky, the body language coupled with the words chosen was one of someone not in control I think and given<br />the incidents this year it’s clear to me now that the merc team are very pro Hamilton<br />and I feel a little sorry for rosberg. I mean unless the cars are going to<br />break down at all the final gp's it’s pretty cut and dry that the merc team<br />will have the constructors and one of their drivers will win the title. Maybe<br />just not the one they'd prefer.<br /><br />Whilst I think Hamilton is an exceptional driver IMO Hamilton moans all the<br />time about something or another and I have really gone off the guy because of<br />this while I think rosberg is holding himself very well indeed, a far more professional gentleman, well he would be i suppose as he wasn't brought up on the sofa.<br /><br />No one mentions the bumper cars Hamilton was playing at the German gp, but<br />that was ok though because he came through the field. What a star, no overzealous<br />moves there.<br /><br />Merc management complain about it being on the second lap but the first 3<br />laps of a gp are some of the most exciting aren’t they?<br /><br />Racing incident for me and I think the merc team and Hamilton look very bad<br />on this occasion and could have held themselves alot better and rosberg can stand tall I think.<br /><br />Although British I was neither a Hamilton nor a rosberg fan at the start of<br />the season but as they are fighting it out I would like rosberg to pip Hamilton to the title, he's driving well and holds himself well.casnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-75666459666261162672014-08-25T12:12:29.823-04:002014-08-25T12:12:29.823-04:00Thanks for your reply, as an AMG-Mercedes fan I ag...Thanks for your reply, as an AMG-Mercedes fan I agree with you up to the point that Mercedes has been overwhelmingly dominant this year.

It will be interesting to see how Hamilton will adapt his driving towards him after what happened. Most likely he will try to make his point too and kick him out at some point, like an angry kid in a sand pit. <br />It makes me feel sad for Hamilton, he should man up and keep his visor down instead of constant whining and asking for more bubble wrap.
