Why didn't he just back off and take the corner behind Kimi?  Because he's Lewis Hamilton, that's why.  He just can't back down.  All or nothing and this is what he gets.

Or because he was actually in front as then entered the corner.

SO ME IN THE FIA RULES WHERE IT SAYS ONE MUST WAIT FOR THE CORNER OR ONE CANT HAVE THE MOMENTUM, HE WAS PENALISED FOR CUTTING THE CHICANE, BUT HOLD ON A MINUTE, HE WAS BARGED ONTO THE CHICANE!

WHAT......!!! Why didnt he back off? Because it god damn racing...or do you refer races like valencia!!!!!!! Hmmmm why should he back down. DI schmacher ever back down? EVER? No he didnt and th was why he is one of the greatest racers ever. Serioulsy please try and make valid points!!!

What are you talking about? he did back off if he hadn't how would he have been able to overtake him again?  This is last year all over again!

"Why didn't he just back off and take the corner behind Kimi?  Because he's Lewis Hamilton, that's why.  He just can't back down.  All or nothing and this is what he gets."

 

Maybe because it was supposed to be a race? Well F1 used to be, not sure now

Because thats not racing and his car was actually ahead going into the corner, he jumped the chicane to avoid causing an "avoidable collision" and got penalised for it. Rather ironic really!

I agree

If you want *** racing go wacht yachting!!!

He did cut the corner but he did slow down to let Kimmi drive in front of him, he didn't however drop behind the Ferrari, he accelerated off as they were virtualy side by side. this is probably why he has been penalised.

 

no because he he was in too deep coming into the corner at too much speed and he ran out of road stop making idiotic threads

Absolutely right, though it saddens me to say it his car looked to be easily capable of passing Kimi's in the wet, but, Hamilton is Hamilton, gotta have that glory!! and as you say, he got his just reward.

Why couldn't Kimi stay infront through the first corner when he was handed back his position? Slow as ********

 

Oh and what Hamilton did used to be called 'racing'........now its called watch out you might get penalised!

Then i suppose you would accuse the race as being boring........you dont win races sitting behind someone.....

Why is he getting this negative feedback from people like yourself  ''because he's Lewis Hamilton, thats why.''

 Pathetic

Because its meant to be RACING not a knitting contest.

Witness Rossi v Stoner at Laguna Seca this year.
