Hamilton Penalty?!?!?

[TC Ink]

Hamilton has recieved a time penalty equivalent to a drive through after stewards fund he gained an advantage after cutting through a corner. Massa has been awarded the victory.

This is outrageous. Hamilton clearly realised that he could not hold the lead after cutting through, so he slowed down and let Raikkonen get back past. What more could he do? It's not his fault that the McLaren is way better is damp conditions, so he was immediately able to out brake Kimi and re take the lead.

Lewis did gain an advantage by cutting the corner, but he immediately rectified it Stupid penalty and I hope McLaren's appeal is successful. The penalty drops Lewis to 3rd, awarding Heidfeld 2nd.

I'm a Ferrari fan, and even I think that Hamilton didn't deserve that penalty. Raikkonen did squeeze him out, but then again did Hamiltion have to be there in the first place? Anyway, I hope that Hamilton does win, only for the sake of the sport itself.

I'm with you TC penalty not needed......stupid. Poor Kimi....Dont think massa deserved a win

Yeah, Kimi was unlucky... Although he got the championship win he deserved last year, now I must barrack 100% against him in that Ferrari .

Although if it came down to Massa and Kimi, I would pick Kimi everyday of the week. Massa is an ordinary driver in my opinion.

But McLaren must finally win. Of all these years of supporting them in F1 we have come so close... Yet I have never cheered a McLaren championship before. Surely Hamilton will bring it home for McLaren this year!
