    I hope this little hissy fit you're throwing and the passive aggression that goes with it is a joke.

    This. Vettel's onboard footage of the event makes it clear that he didn't get alongside Hammy and suddenly wrench the wheel to the right to "teach him a lesson" or whatever.

    I'm not sure they're the best drivers. Maldonado terrorized F1 for a while and the twit Vettel is about to begin his reign of terror.

    On a lighter note, we can clearly distinguish the fanboys from the objective observers here. Calling Ham innocent victim would never hold water in this world, perhaps yes in alternative worlds.
    Oh yeah, i almost forgot. What Hamster did last year to Nico would make him despicable for me at very best. Asking the team to order Bottas to stop chasing 2nd place and slow down Vettel just confirmed my opinion that he is ready to everything and anything without even realising the morality of it. But karma is a b!tch, and sneaky one at that

    Theyre all ready to do anything. Vettel takes it further using his car like a batarang. They are ruthless. You forget Multi21, and his rant to Charlie last year in Mexico?

    FIA were wrong in Mexico. Again, like Bernie is gone, likewise Charlie Whiting and all of his buddies need to retire.

    You quite purposefully seem to be forgetting Hamilton's reign of terror. Quite a lot of incidents that I don't have to remind you about as long as you stop using selective memory

    Racing incidents are different. All drivers have those. Side swiping like Vettel and Maldonado is something else

    This incident is similar to what happened between Montoya and Schumacher at Nurburgring GP where Schumacher was leading the pack during a restart and backed up a lot of drivers with Montoya nearly running into him. Just like Vettet he gets right beside him waving and telling to speed up.

    Did Montoya ram him on the side? i don't remember. VET was caught napping and rammed HAM from behind. The second incident of the side swipe was too much

    Also quite funny: Hamilton mentions how Vettel should set an example for children, then in the same interview challenges Vettel to a fight. The guy is such a dbag it hurts.

    Hamilton has a black belt in Karate. It would be an easy win. I'm not aware of the twit Vettel martial arts abilities.

    Do you agree with the stewards' decision to give Vettel a 10-second drive-thru penalty instead of black-flagging him?

    If not, then you concede stewards' decisions can be wrong.

    And they were 100% wrong in Mexico last year.

    Multi21 was a case of intra-team rivalry and had nothing to do with the stewards or other drivers, and has no bearing on the incident in Baku.

    Yes i agree with it. It was also said that they considered a disqualification. FIA may still look into this, so i dont think its over.

    They looked at video evidence and telemetry data. Vettel messed up here plain and simple.

    On Multi 21 etc, another poster brought up other non baku related stuff and i responded in kind.

    Off related question ... but when will Liberty Media lift off this video copyright thing? Any video link that I try to watch is immediately taken down due to copyrights.

    Let's all agree on a few points:

    1. That race was truly amazing to watch, full of ups and downs for almost every driver in the field.
    2. Hamilton definitely caused the pack to bunch up, whether or not it's enough to fit the definition of brake checking aside.
    3. Vettel definitely put himself in position to bump Hamilton, whether or not it was on purpose.
    4. The race was more interesting as a result, especially since both drivers had to pit for different reasons.
    5. They're both whiny pricks.

    Let's spend less time getting bent out of shape about this stuff and more time appreciating how interesting that race was!

    For me? I am well aware of their decision, you are the one who asked.

    I am seeing this line a lot from the Hammsters. Why on earth would Vettel be "napping" on the final corner before a restart while in P2? I'd love to hear your reasoning for that.
