How sad driver's for McLaren were not smart enough to get off the racing line. I was impressed when HK was interviewed and came right out and admitted he was wrong. Had that been LH I can only imagine what kind of media sound bite crap he would have come up with, because we all know, he is the best thing sincel sliced bread, and can do nothing wrong.
I saw the ITV feed (not Speed) and they had LH's take on the penalty. And you are almost spot on. HK took complete responsibility for the infraction while Hamilton spoke in circles and how it wasn't his fault.

BTW ITV's F1 coverage completely trounces Speed coverage. First it's 16x9 and second there are TONS more interviews/behind the scenes stuff.

Gee, what a surprise LH took that position...

I too have seen ITV, and I will admit, they have a better signal, but there is NO WAY I can rate them as better. You see for me, the thing that gets in the way is that f'ing stupid, bitter old fart who does commentary. The things that come out of his mouth are stupid, uninformed and ignorant. The other people on the team may be fine, but he just rubs me totally the wrong way and prevents me from agreeing with you.

And wow, what a 2nd fiddle, I'm really impressed with how HK is doing.

I hope he takes more points this year than his teammate.
It would be glorious to see LH in the same position as FA was last year. How does that medicine taste ol' Lewis?

Did you hear Ms Louise H.. ie daddy anotnia in regard to the penalty??
He basically said if his daughter was wrong she must respect the outcome BUT it was a Political decision!

WTF, how the hell is your a woman making 26 million a yr in highest form of racing and you dont understand go slow stay off racing line???
How is that political that the mcCheaters were penalized?? I love HK for manning up, saying he was wrong, and not saying its "political" and accepted it and moved on..and finished in position that he qualified in!!

Doug said it best that amature track guys no this rule.

Antonia must feel he and his daughter need 80 acres and 3 mules... christ.

On a side note, All you ITV guys enjoy it whuile it lasts, ITV looses F1 at end of 08!
BBC just gave uncle Bernie 150 Million Pounds for 09 and on... i am to lazy to go search out the news thread

Wow... I can't believe the turn of emotion LH gets this year. He was loved last year and seems to be Alonso v2.0 this year.

I agree though. He comes off as if he "knows" he's the best driver in F1. Much like Alonso, he IS a great driver, but that mentality will lose fan support.

I hope HK never lets it go to his head. I'm becomng a BIG fan.

I can PROUDLY say I nebver gave girlie girl 1 millisecond of support or rspect.
I never will either. As much as i have my personal resons to hate the Fuehur, i would happily shine his shoes rather than even acknoldge 1 word of positive anything for that snivle lil girlie girl wench Louise.

FA proved and earned the right to act untouchable. Louise has done NOTHING.
I can prove it. as of start of 08, how many WDC are on grid?? answer...2
FA
KR

does anyone see the name Louise snivly in that list??
Answer... NO
Therefore he has done NOTHING. except rant how great he is, how many women he wants to infect, how much money he deserves, and how much faster he can go! Really.. so much faster that his terammate kicked his girlie ass, and so much faster he got beat by a toyota!!!....
I retract, i have praise forthcoming for Louise.. i love and will continue to love all the bullshit he spews about his greatness... as it will dig his hole deeper and deeper, and within 3 years when he is forgotten, many on here will have to say... MarcoSan you were right again you asshole...

it is great to be me
