[Matra et Alpine]

Being too simplistic guys IT was a SEQUENCE of corners.
If viewers don't want drivers to try to overtake on the outside or inside and then "own " the racing line then F1 is dead.
It's the precise LACK of those moves that has neutered overtaking in F1.
Can't have it both ways
ALL the great moves I remember in the mumble-mumble-mumble years of watching F1 have been to do with getting the overtaking car INTO a position where the oither person has to give ! AND the moments when the other person was silly was seen then as "worse than this case" Prost v Senna ?

On the point of shoudl Hamilton have let him pass. He and the pit team were all of the opinion it was a non-event. Without the benefit of 20-20 what shodul a driver do ? How much of a corner constitues a cut ? How much is a driver permitted to drive safely without penalty even though it maintains their position ?

If the expectaiton of every driver who bumped wheels, weaved 1 1/2 times in a corner, jumped a kerb was to always give up a place to the car behind then F1 shodul jsut pack in and we all watch Scalextric races !
