@Mark
Absolute rubbish and you know it. .
What is it with you fingerlings and your constant disinformation ?
Better and more knowledgable men than you have explained exactly why it was Vettels fault and Senna was not to blame -so you are only preaching fairy stories to yourself and the other members of the gang of five

@WTF - I am not a Vettel fan. I would have liked to see Alonso win the title but that is not the way that it played out this year. Senna's move was like a Paul Tracy muscle move in Indycar. Did he just expect everyone to pull aside while he comes from three cars back to make that move? It was overly optimistic on Senna's part. If you cannot get alongside the car infront by the apex then you shouldn't put your nose there. The problem is that Senna did not leave himself an out if the door got closed on him.

@ Mark, he beat Vettle to the apex, and Vettle hit him coming from outside to in. Look, I don't care. But that is what happened. And to me it was a racing incident. But they have penalized others for less. So call em all or don't call any of them, but let's not pretend they are called evenly.

old man. have a look at a re run. senna started way behind vettel. vettel was a little slow after being squeezed by his teammate, but was still ahead of senna. vettel took the proper racing line for the corner. senna barrelled down, off line, on the inside and his front hit vettels rear. at all times, vettel was AHEAD of senna.

yes, it was a racing incident, but senna took a gamble that didnt pay off. the stewards ruled that no-one was to "blame". so any argument is superfluous.

I don't know what the fuss is all about really...

There was a growing controversy coming from the video, Ferrari called on the FIA to make a statement so that everything is clear and to kill it in the nest. Ferrari did not lodge a formal complaint, they just asked for an official clarification to end the matter. AFAIC, that was the right thing to do.

The rest are just the media trying to milk on it...Move on...

bazzle. odd comment, bearing in mind that lulu has gotten away with many many indiscretions. (that is one record that lulu retains and is unlikely to be broken). seb did not get away with anything. he abided by the rule!

Rich. You seem to be saying that the stewards and the FIA have been cheating for Lewis. Is that what you are implying? That's mighty rich coming from someone who has defended red bulls keeping of points last year.

To Vettel: Get off it and start talking and acting like a man. Ferrari did what every other F1 team wouldve and SHOULD have done. Dont tell me you and Horner would not have..U have the WDC, stop winging about. I like you as a race car driver, stop your crying. Simply because Alonso was voted the best driver of the year doesnt diminish your skills. He was.
