				Hamilton was quite dumb. 2 cars stopped @ outside of the pit lanes side-by-side due to red-light (closed pits). He still drives @ max allowed speed in pits and rear-ends them, putting him and the Ferrari out of the race... wonder what he was thinking or looking @ ? best angle of what happens (spanish): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pzb8nFouUlQ all 5 first runners go in the pit once they opened pits after pace car. shit happens on the exit, because exit is closed, due to pace car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsXs5yWxyzo better angles here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ap--XNi5sak Maybe he was distracted by the Montreal ladies... lol Was a very clean start... can't remember a start of the race without any incident in turn 1 or 2 here in Montreal. Here is the start: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tKZeDGUG78 |

				Howdy, Having the pit lane open, but the exit closed has to be one of the more silly things I've ever heard of... Varsha on WindTunnel said it was due to the old pit out setup that dumped drivers right onto the circuit in front of guys at speed, so they'd hold them if someone was coming. Of course, since then the pit out exit has changed... I wonder if Hamilton decided who to hit, once he realized he was going to hit someone? Quick thinking if so. Mark |
