    1) And to do what? Order Alonso to come to the pit earlier? How would that have changed anything? Remember than Alonsos laptimes started to lag only few rounds before the lapstop.

    2) When Mclaren read the conmuterlog from the car after the race, they discovered that Hamlinton had pressed the engineshotdown button (or something similar) by himself…propaply pressing all the switches in panic after his spin. The car didn’t stop but the cars computer required time to recover and the gearbox wasen’t operational for short while. Hamlinton admitted this by himself also.

    3) Mclaren and Ferrari had been quite equal for the whole season, almoust in turns one was bit ahead the other and in next race all was upside down and the team that wasen’t so fast last time was now the fastest. In the last race Mclaren just weren’t that fast.
    If Mclaren would have been considerable more conpetitive in the rest of the season races, then why Kimi with ferrari had more wins than Alonso or Hamlinton?

    These conspiracy theories are just sore looser talks, and quite pitifull.
    You brittons just have to face it that you guys might have ruled the world once and ect. but when it comes to driving cars fast, there is only one country worth of mention:dev2: :dev2: 😉

    Yes and its not Finland.

    This thread is digressing now but it isn’t hog wash at all, 1st season or not, it’s irrelevant, yes the lad did well, yes I wanted him to win it and yes he’s good but face it, he’s was given the equipment to win the world championship which he failed to do, end of story

    Are not all racing drivers given the equipment to win ?

    Regardless of how good a driver is the drivers standings don’t lie, the essence of a “great” driver & team is that of a driver & team that have that killer instinct that can deliver when the pressure is on, the bottom line is that he couldn’t deliver when it really mattered therefore he doesn’t deserve to win it.

    It’s obvious why he’s moving, it’s nothing to do with being in the spotlight, it’s all to do with money, does he think we’re stupid?

    Point taken . But a speed camera will not detect drunk or drugged drivers ! so the best deterrent is to put more traffic policing patrols on our roads.

    The UK still has the safest roads in Europe, statistics prove that.

    I think speed/tax cameras are a good thing

    At the moment they are largely situated in areas with some accident history.

    Surely we all now have gps-based camera warnings in our car? So on getting near an accident spot we get a timely aural reminder and slow down – elsewhere we are pretty free to choose our own speed since traffic cars are almost a thing of the past.

    The way in which it could be made better would be for the transgressors to be fined £100, but that fine levied as a charge for a compulsory 90 minute training in driving with an advanced instructor; one who has the power, having observed a driver for those 90 minutes, to order a retest within a given period if they didn’t meet a suitable basic standard.

    Driving standards in this country are pretty appalling – this would be a way to improve them.

    I think this country as a very good standard of driving, there are far worse take France as an example .

    Lack of disabled access (mandatory on all public transport by about 2015)…plus they stopped making them in 1969! 😀

    I guess the answer to the question is here.
