What dirty trick was that big aitch?

By:
He knows he won't be as lucky again next - swap the cars & he wouldn't have been close.

By:
Why not retire? He is not short of money and it is still a dangerous game.

Hes been racing hamilton since he was about 10 and deep down probably knows hamilton is better. He's a multi millionaire with a young family, why not retire when on top.

swap the cars, give him a toro rosso and we'll see how good he is ....

ebul, Rosberg finished every race whereas Hamilton didn't due mechanical issues beyond his control. Well that is just bad luck, unless you are claiming his car was deliberately sabotaged by Mercedes, which I don't believe. |

By:
Laying, Hamilton drove very slowly to back Rosberg up to Vettel & Verstappen, he was told not to by Toto and ignored him. He will either get fined or fired.
Why does that DFC HFT think that anyone gives 2 fcuks what he thinks. He is a Bigoted cretin who needs a good kicking. |
|
By:
I think you'll find you're in the minority with that way of thinking.
|
|
By:
He won't be sacked as Rosberg has retired, I do not think Mercedes were happy with what he did, but it is past now
|
|
By:
Facts, I probably know a lot more about F1 than you do. I watch all the practice sessions and qualifying as well as the races. Rosberg was a bit naughty in the Monaco qualifying, but what Hamilton did was dangerous. Anyone who follows F1 properly understands exactly what has happened

Must be nice to not need £20m a year plus at only 31.

By:
he probably won't Ebul, he is a very talented driver, there are few as good as him, would be nice to see Paul Diresta get a seat next year
|
|
By:
Big Aitch. Paul would have a good year if still with Force India.

Had to laugh at Hamilton having one last dig - saying he wasnt surprised at his retirement as he had only won one championship in 18 years of racing - classy to the last Lewis - divnt let it fester laddie

By:
I do not think it was just luck Wesdag, if Hamilton had not broken down the championship would have been different,
luck is always involved. |

Laying, Hamilton drove very slowly to back Rosberg up to Vettel & Verstappen, he was told not to by Toto and ignored him. He will either get fined or fired. This was the only tactic available to him and anyone else in his position would have done the same. He's not going to be fired for it ffs. |
|
By:
^ Correct. Nor was it dangerous in any way.
He could have over done it by really backing them up or even instigating a collision in the hope that he would come out of it better...this would have been crossing the line and unsportsmanlike. What he did was merely tactical and good racing. |
|
By:
Rosberg was sh1tting himself, I like Lewis but what he did was dangerous (there could easily have been a collision), selfish and against his Teams (the people who pay him) orders.
He was lucky Rosberg doesn't think like Schumaker did, he would have run into him on purpose and put them both out the race. |

But my post was aimed at ebulGery  |

By:
Admittedly I only followed this with a passing interest, but my understanding was that his team had said they'd let the drivers race without interfering, as the Constructors Championship was already won. If this is the case, why did they subsequently renege on this?
Anyway, hasn't Rosberg earned a fortune in his career, has a family and realises that it's a dangerous sport? He's probably paid his mortgage off, so not like he needs the brass. What's wrong with packing in while at the top and spending more than eight or nine weeks of the year at home with your children? |
|
By:
Running into Lewis deliberately would have been moronic, it could easily have backfired if Lewis had survived the collision and Nico had to retire..
|
|
By:
Oz, what Lewis did was pretty moronic.
Rob, Mercedes wanted the one-two, they don't want their drivers risking damage to their cars. Facts, I'm sorry about that  |

Can't fire now they as need him even more.. Is it a team sport or an individual one? I think that the public regard it as an individual one. Difficult for them to get any top driver that Hamilton will get along with who would be content to always be second to him. Verstappen and Hamilton would be an even more explosive pairing. How many drivers are actually available and not signed up to a contract for 2017? |

Big aitch you're wrong fella.. Any great driver would have done what Hamilton did, some would have gone much further..He was trying to win the Championship.
Anyway.. Moving on.. Good luck with your bets today. |

Correct laying, whatever Hamilton does always seems to generate massive over-reaction.
Can't think why. |
