As a neutral to the whole Germany/England thing I'm gonna light the blue touch paper and run back a bit....

Nico had full control of the incident, could have tapped the brakes like Joe Nathan said but chose to make his mark on the team...
Lewis was ahead, way ahead at the time but Nico chose not to give a little room.
Maybe he wanted the place more than Lewis?
Maybe he was quicker? (he was at that point)
Maybe it would have made more of a mark on the race, and to prove the point as he is quoted as possibly saying, maybe he could have moved on Lewis at Eau Rouge on the next lap? That would have made more of a point on Lewis and the team if he showed he could easily beat Lewis...

The main thing out of the whole incident now is that more people are talking about F1, good or bad, but the column inches gained have been phenomenal...
I personally can't wait for this to happen though:-

I think Rosberg has had enough of preventing collisions when Hamilton tries to run him off the track in a pass or ignoring the teams requests.

This could be a turning point, Hamilton cannot assume Rosberg will go on the grass or accross the kerbs to avoid him now.

Hamilton was already rattled by Rosbergs pace during qually and made several mistakes, he got a good start but Rosberg was faster, if it didnt happen on lap 2 at Belgium it was only a matter of time.

I am surprised at the way the team has so publicly laid into Rosberg though (or is that the British media) when he is the in form driver and the most likely to take the title from here.

The next few weeks and Monza will be a test of Rosbergs character.

Hamilton has good speed but needs to make less mistakes if he is going to get back into this title race.






Don't be the slightest bit ignorant, please.

Rosberg didn't need to go on the grass to avoid Hamilton, Rosberg needed to simply tap the brakes. And Rosberg doesn't have to constantly avoid Hamilton, so I don't know what you're on about.




Rosberg did brake and back out of it but Hamilton did what he always does, watch it at full speed without comentators

Looks like the team gave him a statement to read out, nothing about not braking or backing out of it

Doesn't matter who told him to say what , He's admitted he's wrong and apologised to everyone concerned. When no one is backing you up not even your own team. Then i'm afraid your usually wrong. Rosberg made a stupid move at an stupid time of the race and should have backed off and gone again the next lap , Poor judgement all rounbd i'm afraid.

Do you even understand racing? Rosberg wasn't even far enough along side Lewis for him to expect Lewis to leave room.  Oh and you're so far wrong, even Rosberg agrees with me.

After what happened today, the situation will only get worse. It all started so good at the beginning of the season...
I'm not a big fan of Hamilton, so I tought he was whining again on the team radio after the accident, but the accident itself was completely Nico's fault. He should have backed off way earlier like everyone did who attempted that move there and came short. Hamilton had some bad luck but everyone overreacted a bit, at least that's how I feel about it. If his tire didn't puncture nobody would be talking about it.


lol looks like hamilton didnt have a good germany gp AS USUAL! (by the way im a fan of hamilon)
