It was a great quali for Lewis with Massa 5th, but i would rather Massa win the title than Lewis, sorry but i'm not a fan of Lewis
*Runs*
Yet again Massa uses the outside of the track and gets away with it. I know he got his drive through for the incident with Lewis, but what about that overtaking manouvre at the end of the race, all four wheels over the white line yet they allow him to keep it. MB picked up on it. Stewards with their heads buried up Ferraris backsides yet again.
Sebastien Bourdais has been handed a 25-second penalty for his clash with Felipe Massa in the Japanese Grand Prix.
The ruling drops the Frenchman from sixth to 10th in the final classification and promotes Felipe Massa from eighth to seventh.
As a result the Brazilian shaves another point off Lewis Hamiltons world championship lead, trimming it to five points with two races remaining.
Bourdais tangled with Massa on lap 51, when he emerged from his second pit stop at the same time as the Ferrari driver turned in to the first corner.
The Toro Rosso took the inside line and the two cars touched at the apex, knocking Massa into a spin.
As well as doubling Massa's points haul, the penalty ironically benefits Bourdais' stable-mates Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull Racing's Mark Webber, who move up to sixth and eighth respectively.
"It's totally dirty. That's about it, dirty. Piquet hampers me in the straight and nobody ain't say anything. And me, I do nothing to Massa, whom tries something crazy on me, and there you go, I get penalised. This has gone too far, that's too much. The FIA is a great puppeteer that commands everything. Now, I'll know that when Massa arrives behind me, I have to let him past. You have to fade out for some opponents.
Of course, there's still my performance of this weekend. But anyways, the people only remember the results and I lose my 3 points. This is a sh**ty season, I tell you. I'm completely fed up with this."
ITV forums? :O
we gave up on that place years ago - have never ever seen a forum run so badly before or since!
i think bikes are more fun now and i am starting to stray away from F1 due to the poor decisions made by the FIA, its such a shame that everything done now seems to be off track as appose to on
