    Thanks for the link. Hamilton was also lucky in that one of his tires had a slow leak and it went flat after the race in parc ferme. What concerns me the most is that in the last two races Ferrari made some major strategy mistakes that should have never happened. They were not quick in changing their strategy when the race dynamics changed due to weather or the opposition. I hope they get to the bottom of these issues and fix them ASAP .

    Ferrari seems to be getting sloppy lately. The drivers are sloppy, the pitstops are a little sloppy, the team is sloppy, the strategy is sloppy.

    What was Ferrari supposed to do? Excuse me Mr. Race Steward, shouldn't we go to the back of the grid?

    It's a tricky one best left, I for one didn't know about it, so many rule's and reg's I don't think half the folk's working there know what's what's half the time.
    This is the problem, had Kimi, won point's would another team started banging on about it.

    I'm also wondering if Kimster will earn a 4 (?) spot starting penalty at the next race for taking Sutil out.

    Time for a new position at each team; Guy to watch rule infractions that competitors make.
    He sits next to Team Attorney.

    He should get a 10 spot penalty for that brain fart that caused Sutil points

    Stewards met and decided not to take action on Kimi. they warned Sutil too, for overtaking under yellow flags.

    Disagree. Was a racing incident. Brake pressure on a slippery track is not easy to modulate when you are trying to set up a pass
