because had he not been able to drive over the chicane, he would either not attempted the pass in the first place or would have had to break hard to avoid collision. Either way he would not have been on the tail of KR to pull off the overtaking manouver. What the stewards saw was an "ungentleman conduct" in not fully giving back KR his position. He should have allowed a bigger gap between him and KR before attempting the overtake. Had he been a little more mature he would have realised that his car was easily faster and could have overtaken on the straight.

Was it 'ungentleman conduct' for Kimi to force LH onto the grass when they came across the slow Williams ?

Or to overtake under yellows ?

Or when he hit LH from behind through La Source ?

I think Ordinary bloke means "have you tried stand up comedy" not "have you tried to stand up". I could be wrong of course tongue out

Where does it state any of that in the rules? Or are you just making up new amendments a-la the FIA?

Your powers of argument aren't exactly robust are they....

Which kid? How was it cheating? When did the FIA consider "gentlemanly conduct"? What broke?

And for gods sake, it is motor racing, the object of which is to finish in front of the other guys, and except for the one already at the front that means they all have to overtake. The real shame is that Lewis seems to be one of the few who have remembered this.

Having gained an unfair advantage by driving over the chicane instead of through it, he should have given back KR his position PROPERLY -not in the half baken manner that he did so. Rules are rules.

You are quite correct, that 'rules are rules'. However, the rules state that he must give the place back. He was behind Kimi, so in what way is that not giving the place back? You can't half give a place back and still pass behind that car.

What constitutes properly? Kimi was completely in front, Lewis went behind him. How much more properly could he have given the place back? You obviously know more about the rules than Charlie Whiting so presumably you are one of the stewards, did both the others agree with you?

Only after they'd received the brown envelopes a couple of hours later...

Properly constitutes to give the place back and thus allowing enough distance between the car in front so as not to be able to get a tow immidiately after.

Not stated in any rules.

He didn't - check the footage and tell us how much of a TOW he got down the straight to La Source














Dude, seriously, a word in your ear - every post you make is going to get ripped to shreds if you carry this on. Give it up now, there's a good lad.
