Re: Hamilton-Rosberg Belgium 2014 Incident Thread (renamed)

I'm getting sick of people saying "Nico needed to make a point". Are you suggesting Nico can make his point by ignoring other drivers? I assume you think Maldonado's some kind of deity? Seriously though, how is this even a debate? @arai or Alastair Campbell. Or.... He could of backed off...... Like ...

Re: Best F1 driver that didn´t become WDC

No need to apologize. It's because there was no 0. So the first century ran from 1-100. The second from 101-200 and so on.

Well assuming Mercedes are taking the stance, which it seems they are, of Nico cost the team points. They could possibly tell Nico not to overtake, or let Lewis by in future races until whatever points Lewis lost are reinstated if you know what I mean. That way, the team can still maximise their poi...
