Was Lewis Hamilton cheated out of his F1 win on Sunday?

Niki Lauda describes it as the worst decision in F1 history and I would agree with him. What were the race stewards thinking of ?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

The stewards are governed by Max Mosley and he hates Mclaren and Hamilton!

F1 is wholly owned by Ferrari.

I have a gut feeling that you are right.

Answer 2

I dont normally agree with anything that the sun says but this was outrageous. It was by far the best race i have seen in ages and yet the result was not decided by the drivers but 3 (un)wise men.

This is bad for the sport as there will be less overtaken and therefore less excitement!

Answer 3

I was forced to watch the Lewis Hamilton inside overtake and hold back several times and it seems daft to penalise him after he penalised himself by holding back and letting the other car regain the place it had lost.

My beloved made me watch it while we were putting up shelves.

Answer 4

i think it was harsh what happened to him
had he not given up the position he gained i would say it was the correct decision but he did so i think its unfair

Answer 5

its all mafia, Niki Lauda is 100% right

Answer 6

He cut the corner...he cheated...end of story.
