As Mercedes repeatedly warned Schumi over the radio, when he goes back out to the racing line, he has to leave enough room for a car to fit or risk a penalty.<br /><br />Which he did... all props the Michael for a great show in tactical defense. If Hamilton had made it back up to a podium place, maybe he would have been happier about that scrap, but as he didn't, he wasn't.<br /><br />Button is more and more making the team his own. Simply because he doesn't mess up. He's en route to overtaking Alonso for second in the championship. Shocking... as Lewis clearly has the better pace and has shown the ability to conserve tires as well as Button when the situation requires... but Button's racecraft is incredibly polished compared to Lewis's.<br /><br />What more can be said about Fernando Alonso? Them man's ability to punt an uncompetitive car up into the stratosphere is beyond reproach. Hell, that's what won him two championships with Renault.<br /><br />But Vettel... that gutsy move on the outside... who says the boy can't overtake? He's fast, he's motivated, and he seems to truly enjoy racing. There are no more doubts that we're seeing another Schumacher-esque era in the making... but without the dirty driving. :DNikyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16876777804065549352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-63970626531858716882011-09-12T16:41:08.989-04:002011-09-12T16:41:08.989-04:00Watching the Italian GP I got a bit disturbed abou...Watching the Italian GP I got a bit disturbed about the comment Hamilton made over the board radio. Hammi was trying to overtake Schumacher but Shummie blocked Hamilton entering the first Lesmo and then had to go back to the racing line for the simple fact just to make it through the corner and not go off the track<br /><br />Hami complained about shummie changing twice from the racing line against his team hoping the FIA would paniltylize Schumacher. <br /><br />Hamilton being such a talented racing driver has really no need to complain,just RACE!<br /><br />gr<br /><br />AndreAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-72870908365392133952011-09-12T13:33:00.913-04:002011-09-12T13:33:00.913-04:00Well technically Ferrari is not the third best car...Well technically Ferrari is not the third best car. Theyre the Third best team and hence the 5th best car at best.

If he had done what Button did and "closed his eyes and gone for it" and not pulled it of he would have been hammered. Button got a luckly break. <br />Vettel logged an offical complaint against Alonso after the race for the push on the grass so will be interesting to see what happens with that. Not sure Vettel would have pulled of that pass against a McLaren (Ferrari slow to get their tyres up to temperature). <br />Hamilton is obviously trying to clean things up a bit (his driving and talking).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-46124039882382214552011-09-12T10:57:15.843-04:002011-09-12T10:57:15.843-04:00Vettel didn't capture fastest lap - Hamilton d...Vettel didn't capture fastest lap - Hamilton did with Button, I believe, having 2nd fastest lap; both toward the end of the race, natch. <br />http://www.formula1.com/results/season/2011/856/6897/fastest_laps.htmlBennoreply@blogger.com
