Massa wanted to get back onto the track and Lewis was in his WAY? Does that make spinning Lewis around permissable? If so, HOW? I need to re-read the rule book and re-think my involvement within the sport! Massa drove onto the grass! He should b*****y well wait for Lewis to 'get out of his way' before re-joining the circut!
Yes Massa was off the road, therefore his wheels can be pointing any direction - but that is just the point!!! He DROVE OFF the road, and he did it ALL BY HIMSELF! He was not forced, he had a stab back at Lewis that did not work!
In making his mistake / deliberatelly driving off the road (however you forsee it, only he can tell us honestly) he drove into the back of Lewis, further ruining Lewis's race (that he had already ruined himself).
How is that NOT PENALISABLE? Are you saying that its absolutly fine to drive off the road, then in doing so hit the back of the car infront, sending them into a spin? Is this where I have been going wrong all these years? 'He's over taken me! Thats ok ill just cut across the grass, spin him round and it will be a racing incident because I was unable to control my car because I was on the grass!!!'. I thought that stuff was reserved for banger racing and bumper cars.
Lewis made a clean move in passing Massa, Massa then made a mistake, he ran wide, he took to the grass all by himself and be it deliberate or not he sent Lewis spinning when he re-joined the circuit - his fault ENTIRELY. HOW is that a legal move? HOW is that NOT worth a penalty?
Yes we agree on the Massa vs Webber, and Massa vs Bourdais incidents, im guessing the reason Webber didnt get a penalty, and Bourdais did was because Bourdais finished the race AHEAD of Massa!
But it is not these matters we are disputing!
I cannot see how that can be comprehended in any way but Massa's fault, therefore it MUST be worthy of a penalty!
