F*ck yeah. DC!!!!! forking great to see him back up on the podium. He's gonna just have to keep this rolling.

Plus, what a race for Kubica. He truly deserves it and leading the World Championships is just great for him. Hamilton just threw the race away and I was suprised with Kimi's reaction because I would have knocked the shite out of him.

The move of the day had to be by Massa when he passed Barri & Kovy. Looks like the title race is wide open.

Tbh s**t happens and there are no guarantees in F1 but that was a rookie mistake from a Class A driver. Not only did he ruin his race but he took down Kimi and not to mention Nico's.

yep first time.only 2/3 people got a prediction right and that was for fastest lap.

glock only joined toyota this year having been racing in gp2 last year and winning that series.he raced with jordan a few years back and got points on his debut race for jordan which just happened to be in canada

Nope, don't agree with that. He hit Hamilton's car, and it was already damaged! Besides he did more damage to his own car then Hamilton's. In my opinion Rosberg deserved a stop and go, but not the 10 grid spot penalty. But you could argue for both it's just a difference of opinions.

how is it different? hamilton obviously didnt see the lights in time, failed to break quickly enough and went into the back of kimi because he was going too fast.

Rosberg obviously didnt see the light either, didnt break in time (even without hamiltons car in front he was going too fast to stop at the end of the pit lane) and went into the back of hamilton.


both drivers failed to take notice of the lights at the end of the pit lane and the result was a crash, it would be utterly unfair to punish hamilton but let Rosberg off

Yeah, Rosberg didn't see the lights and wouldn't have stopped before the end but he would have avoided Hamilton & Kimi and as for going past the line he could have easily have let the others go past. Even FIA state that he "clipped" Hamilton's car so yeah he would most likely have avoided Kimi and Kubica. You can see he had the space on the left to make a sharp turn.
