Nice win, but boring as hell.

Doesnt Hamilton only need 3 points to win the title in Brazil?

Only if he has more wins than Massa, which I'm not sure of.

5th or better on the news, assuming Massa wins - which makes it 4 points.

I thought there were rules stopping team mates letting each other past from team orders.

When you see how hard it is for cars at the front passing slower cars after a pit stop the rate at which Massa passed Kimi was amazing.

Of course if Maclaren did it they would have been disqualified for sure.

The whole penalties for certain teams is making me not want to watch F1. Now they are complaining about aggressive overtaking into corners. I'm sorry but if the likes of Hamilton and Alonso didn't make moves like this there would be no overtaking in the sport at all.

Hopefully things will pick up.

Teams are not allowed to give orders for such passing manouvres, however if two drivers decide that is what they are going to do then it would be difficult to prove. I expect Kimi will say that he was struggling on his last set of tyres etc.. As Martin Brundle said the teams will have a coded message when they talk to the drivers on the radio. To be fair any team who has a driver with a chance of winning a championship will try to maximise his points if possible.

Dont forget Heiki has practicaly parked the car to let LH pass on a few occasions earlier this season, and their was no coded msg, before the race started it would of been sorted.

LH started and drover perfectly today, credit to him.

Sighned a Massa fan.

To be honest, i don't understand what the problem with this is..... at the end of the day, it is a team sport is it not? i don't see why they shouldn't be able to help each other when the time comes...........

It is a team sport and they should be allowed to race as teams.

Signed a Senna fan

The no team orders rule is a load f crap, as nothing stops drivers "agreeing" beforehand.... and lets face it the team is going to be involved in the decision... I just think pretending you are not allowed is unhelpful to those who watch.

As for drivers, well its more embarrasing to have to have your team mate "wait" for you so I dont think they will ever be a first resort...

I predict that during the last advert break in the Brazilian GP something will happen and ITV viewers will miss it..... (its ITV's last race before it heads back to the beeb!)

Trust me, those who remember the Beeb coverage arent chuffed at the prospect.

No race build up, and shunted to BBC ch67 in any tennis/golf/rugby's on. No press conf.

welp i dont care and ITV only show What they wish also if i see Hamilton on every branded beeb thing like ITV then they can do one also

At least with BBC coverage we won't miss the only overtaking manouvre of the race while watching the adverts.

I would imagine the beeb will show qualifying etc & I see Martin Brundle is joining them along with David Coulthard.
