    Default *SPOILER* F1 Turkey "The Incident" video and discussion.

    Spoiler Reminder!!!!













    Video might be gone by the time you see this but check Vettle Webber Turkey Gp on youtube.

    My say:

    On the onboard with Webber, his wheel stays straight the whole time. Vettle turned into him to early to take the line before Vettle's car was clear of Webber's.

    On the footage of the two cars approaching the camera, you can again see Vettle turn into Webber.

    Very impressive performance for Webber. Hamilton gets my vote for best of race for keeping the pressure in the RBs and having a clean fight with Button.

    I was watching this before church this morning and my mouth dropped when I saw this. The commentators were just mentioning whether or not a pass was going to be made and how Vettel would need to notify his team so they could let Webber know and then BAM!

    Definitely some stubbornness on both of their parts, though. I'm not defending Vettel at all, but although it looked like he turned in, he was really just fading over because he was running out of tarmac on the left...entering that turn was like this / | and he was fading back out for the line. I don't think he should have made the move at all, especially without notifying pit, but there were several things that either of them could have done to not have that outcome.

    Then, Team McLaren come and almost do the same thing!! Haha... You could tell the difference in the team dynamics, though. Even with a little nudge, Hamilton and Button's fight was a clean fight like you mentioned.

    Go ahead, call me a ricer--show me how trendy you are

    It's neithers fault entirely, however I blame Vettel. Naturally as we all do we push the car we're passing over defensivly and he pushed into Webber without even entirely having the position. Whether he just wasn't paying attention or just wanted a little room thinking Webber would move who knows? I give props to Webber for his huge balls, I still like Vettel, it was just a sorry mistake.

    Mclaren, you all suck and don't deserve any wins. Especially Hamilton.

    SCHUMACHER 4th FTW.

    for the second time i have to agree with simon. fuck hamilton, and it takes some balls to just keep it straight, i've seen a lot of f1 races where that little "juke" over to "scare" the other driver (i suppose, unless they don't see em), so as i watched it i figured it was another one of those moves, we all know the two get along.
