my mistake – it was the Villeneuve one I was thinking of when Schumacher was driving for ferrari.

Ok – now I know what they are. Have used the self service check-in at various locations but they only really save anything when travelling with hand luggage as this negates the need to visit a ‘fast bag drop’. The last time I used them was at LHR T1 when flying United – the desk worked fine and I was able to get an upgrade with no real issues but still had to see a person at a desk to get my luggage checked in. Ultimately they have turned a 1 step process of check in into a 2 step one if you have luggage and the majority of people will have luggage.

Yes (along with many others) – the evidence was on ITV – Hamilton had the presence of mind to realise that he might have infringed the law, did what he was supposed to in letting Kimi past thereby negating any perceived advantage. Ultimately no advantage was gained because Kimi crashed out.

Ferrari being able the bend the rules to suit themselves with only the occasional wrist slap has been going on for a long time – do you remember schumacher deliberately drving into Damon Hill and winning the championship as a result. The Massa incident in Valencia – according to the FIA own rules (and the commentary team) the only punishment available should have been a drive through penalty or a 10 place grid drop at the next event – what did Ferrari get – a paltry fine. A drive through would have given the race to Hamilton (undeservedly i admit) yet the 25 second deduction today gave the race to an equally undeserving Massa.

F1 as a sport has lost its credibility when one team is favoured more than another in such a blatent manor.

Suggest you look at the incident and make up your own mind – maybe you will realise why these things are being said. The press tomorrow will make very interesting reading.

This decision must be overturned if the sport is to not become even more of a circus than it already is.

The Ferrari bias is shining very brightly tonight (as usual) – I wonder how much the stewards were paid to make that decision (or if they will be driving new fiats / ferraris in the near future).

This decision just reinforces the belief that by fair means or foul Mclaren and Hamilton will not be allowed to win the title.

Hopefully Mclaren will appeal this decision and get it overturned as it is a travisty and removes what little is left of the credibility of F1 as a sport.
