Oh I saw a replay of that, thought it might have been something involving Lewis dammit.
Why didn't they just give Massa a penalty there and then?
Very silly isn't it. So he will be the winner and then lose the race 2 hours later, flipping daft.

I don't see what they need to investigate! It was clearly a dangerous move by Ferrari and he should have been given a drive through.

Just said it wont be punished in this race, but probably gets a 10 place drop at the start for the next race. Rubbish decision if that happens.

Thats ridiculous. It happened mid way through the race so not as though there wasn't time for him to serve a penalty.

He has been better than Lewis throughout the weekend and deserves his win.
-10 places at the next race would be fair.
Anyone here ever been to a GP?

No, I had the chance once but it pissed down rain all weekend so sold my ticket to someone else.

No, what would be fair is to apply the rules. If they state -10 grid places then fair enough. If they say -10 seconds then tough titties. And yes, only the British GP so far though.

Apparently Hamilton had flu and neck problems and almost didn't race!
He did well to finish 2nd then.

Anyone here ever been to a GP? Yes, two. Both memorable. Belgium '98. The huge pile up off the start, the Schumacher/Coulthard incident right in front of me, and Damon Hill taking Jordan's first victory Indy '05. The one where all the Michelin runners drove into the pits before the start. I left after 20 minutes....... Did Jordan ever win another race? Head tells me Frentzen won in a Jordan somewhere, but I can't recall exactly.

Seem to remember Fisicella getting a win in strange circumstances for Jordan in the early 2000's?

Frentzen won in France and Italy in '99. That's my curious mind settled. The Fisi win was Brazil '03, so in total Jordan won 4 races. Jordan won in 2003. The win came under extraordinary circumstances in the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix which took place in torrential weather conditions. Following a massive accident on the start / finish straight, the race was red flagged and stopped. After some initial confusion, Giancarlo Fisichella was initially ruled to have finished a still remarkable second behind Kimi Räikkönen who took the top step on the podium. However, an FIA inquiry several days later led to Fisichella being officially declared the winner of his first F1 race. Fisichella was, therefore, unable to celebrate his first career victory on the top step of the podium, although he and Räikkönen swapped their drivers' trophies in a presentation at the following Grand Prix, while McLaren's Ron Dennis handed over the constructors' trophy to Eddie Jordan. Just added the details on Fisi's rather odd victory. He was very 'appy IIRC.......

Super Aguri are my all time fav F1 team, but Jordan are definitely second. I used to like the shark nose-cone thing.
