McLaren lawyer seeks Hamilton title at appeal
Discussion

Present at Sidley Austin LLP, a London law firm - an alternate venue chosen by the FIA at short notice due to the Paris transit strikes - were representatives not only of McLaren, BMW and Williams, but also Ferrari.
What on earth are Ferrari representatives doing there? This has nothing to do with them.chris_w said:

It must be right that if the team is disqualified, the driver loses the points as well.
Er, does he not see the irony of this one???Let's hope their lawyer is better informed than he appears, having apparently forgotten about the last time (IIRC) there was a fuel irregularity*. Brazil 95, Williams and Benetton fuel samples from after the race didn't match those from before it - end result was that the teams lost their points but drivers kept theirs.
* The BAR thing being a weight irregularity, rather than a fuel one?

What on earth are Ferrari representatives doing there? Let's be honest, it's not at all surprising, is it.

He'd be a rubbish lawyer if he didn't ask for that!Or perhaps you're worried you won't be able to claim Lewis 'chocked' (sic)?

If LH wins then it must be nice to say you had a lawyer win you the title
If Williams and BMW hadn't cheated in the first place, LH may have finished higher up at Brazil and therefore would have won the Championship on the track.
If LH is granted the championship retrospectively, there is nobody to blame but BMW and Williams.

No chance of LH catching either BMW or Williams in question on the day.
