<p class=MsoNormal>I wouldn't be too happy about having FIA stewards on my
side, unless I was the recipient of their fines. There just isn't
enough differential speed between these cars, especially in that corner,
for that argument to hold water. My hero Kimi
squeezed Hamilton off the corner--very clear in the video. That's OK,
nice tactical move. Hamilton lifts, Kimi goes by, then Hamilton crosses behind
him (no inertia remaining there) and passes on the other side. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>There isn't a racing organization in existence that would
consistently call that an illegal pass--especially the FIA. It's one of those
decisions where the stewards insert their authority into the results.
Despicable. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I watched the race too. How does someone have
"inertia" to overtake <br>
a faster vehicle doesn't that defy the laws of physics?<br>
<br>
Approaching La Source Kimi had more speed and better position. The <br>
issue is not one of inertia but rather the argument that if Lewis had <br>
not shortcut the chicane would he have been that close to Kimi for <br>
the run to La Source to try and outbrake him.<br>
<br>
Try watching the videos then you won't have to rely on your faulty :) memory.<br>
<br>
You may agree with the stewards but three time world champs Lauda and <br>
Stewart don't. I bet the FIA overturns the stewards.<br>
