[m3gtr]

LOOOOOOWIS!!!!1!11!!

Yeah.

Some one on here was saying LH cant overtake.

Whatchu think about that?!

*does a funky dance and a jig*

[m3gtr]

BAM!

10 more points in the hole.

Yeeeeeaaaaah baby!

[m3gtr]

'Another brilliant passing manouever by Lewis Hamilton'

Yeah, because Piquet really closed the gap down the inside....

Hater.

[sh@un]

haha!!

Ron Dennis trying to chop out Heikki's grid girl

can't say i blame him. she was A++

i'd have a crack too if i was worth 600mil

---

very happy after this weekend- fave team won, fave driver moved to the top of the WDC, and fave motorcycle manufacturer even won the MotoGP

to whoever was having a winge about Kova letting Lewis past- what should he have done? let Lewis sit behind him drumming on the steering wheel while being slowed down by over a second a lap, so the rest of the field could catch up?

[m3gtr]

Thats exactly what some would have wanted.

That way they may have taken each other out and the McLaren haters would be happy.

Meh...what else is new?

...haterz are always the same.

Heikki should have let him past, and did let him past. The comical thing is that Heikki talks like a number 2, walks like a number 2, and is a number 2. But nobody is saying it. From the start of the year the talk was that he was the team mate to support Lewis on his way to the WDC. Which is a shame as it means its we wont see any meaty racing between team mates.

But the season is too far gone for Heikki to bother.

Apart from Lewis the only people that deserved their pay cheques on the weekend was Vettel and the BMW boys. Great GP though, but very frustrating to watch with some below par performances from drivers that should know better.

Piquet did well to get over the line, but he didnt seize his chance. No way Vettel would have give it to him that easily, knowing that Lewis had everything to lose and only two points to gain by clipping wheels.

Was great to see Alonso and Vettel punching it out down the grid

[wolverine]

hamilton was in a class of his own.

although adam i hope you can admit the passes on massa and piquet were pretty soft. geez even webber would have passed them.

kovalainen bent over but what was to be gained by making it hard for hamilton when he was lapping (in the same car?!!) so much faster. 2 laps from the finish i would have puked but he has done the correct thing by his team.

[Marco-R34GTT]

Must say, it was nice to see Kimi squeeze past Kubica in the closing stages of the race.. Kimi just has this nack of squeezing those extra few points here and there even if it isn't his weekend... one quality I don't really see in Louise, podium or bust on most occasions.. However, I will say that was some awesome driving by the bitsch, I do really enjoy his aggression, I'd 'nearly' refer to it as 'Schumacher-esque', he's just so damn unrelenting when in pursuit... However, just a shame he is a complete nut-job..

Remember how many points Kimi was behind at this stage of last season... it ain't over yet, and it wont be over at either Hungary, Spa or Monza..

Hmmm....soft isnt the word i would use.

No overtaking move in F1 is soft.

A little too easy is the way i would put it...

In the end it doesnt matter. My boy came through again under pressure and the tallboy i smashed as they sprayed the champers was just as sweet id have to say.

But last year Alonso beat Lewis in 5 out of the 7 final GPs of the year. No way Heikki is going to take any points off Lewis from here on in.

And, i cant see why people are getting so excited about Lewis' overtaking. He put it up the inside and the other cars made it amazingly easy for him. I was gob smacked how easy they made it. If you want to look at top shelf passes look no fruther then Heikki's move on Kubica. It was top shelf

What the hell is a tall boy? Isnt it an item of furniture

[sh@un]

yeah, it was a very gripping race for a dry event. the pace car made a lot of drivers have to work even harder for their placings.

very, very cheeky move by Vettel showing Alonso some argy-bargy in the pit lane exit, but it's all good, because Algonzo is a dick-flop anyway...

although adam i hope you can admit the passes on massa and piquet were pretty soft. geez even webber would have passed them.

fair cop, but the pass on P.K chewy, wasn't super easy. Nelson did seem to give him a generous amount of space down to the apex, but the touch of inside wheel lock showed how hard Lewis was working to bleed off juuust enough speed to carry them to the edge of the track turning in off the optimal line

but Massa? what the hell was up with that? did he assume he had enough power to out-drag the McLaren down the straight? never defended his line once

[wolverine]

Hmmm....soft isnt the word i would use.

ok i take back soft.....

....... and i go with blancmange, 44DDD's, warm butter, new towel straight out of a dyer and a shandy.

great drive regardless.

Its made of aluminium and holds 500ml of Asahi's finest.

[sh@un]

is everyone so awestruck by Hamo's driving these days that they just get the hell out of the way when they see him coming?

[lingeringsoul]

I'm really trying hard to like Lewis but comments like this just makes it all the more difficult

From Planetf1.com

Lewis Hamilton has congratulated himself on his "fantastic job" to win the German GP and admitted that he was surprised that Felipe Massa allowed him such a straightforward route through to second place.

Effectively required to win the race twice after the deployment of the Safety Car wiped out the ten-second lead he had constructed, Hamilton delivered a barnstorming final flurry to overtake Massa and then the Renault of Nelson Piquet junior to claim a deserved victory. While relatively subdued after the race, Hamilton was not shy of congratulating himself on his performance.

"I think I did a fantastic job," he declared. "The pace I had was incredible. It [the Safety Car] just made it more exciting and the win look even better."

At least have the decency to include the rest of your team.

lol!

Mclaren said both drivers are equal... when one driver just moves out the way for the other is fair from being equal. im not a hater as you say i just want to see racing and when racers move out the way and don't even fight for the position its far from good watching... or racing

Mate, if i were RD and LH was being held up by HK by up to and over a second a lap and a win was at stake, id be having a few words whether you like the racing or not.

Fact of the matter is LH CANED em.

Again.

That is all.

Fer crying out loud.

The guy DID do an excellent job.

Cant blame him for blowing his own trumpet... at least once in a while.

And you obviously werent listening to the drivers interviews very closely, were you James?

[Marco-R34GTT]

What, every time he takes a race win???

It it like him saying "This is my best victory yet" or "My best win of my career"..

Like every win gets better and better, more like his own head getting bigger and bigger, soon his noggin won't fit in his helmet..
