Cheating vs Mind games

What happened today was utterly disgusting, the little respect I had for Rosberg has completely evaporated! This scheming, devious little plonker has to stoop so low to Schumacher 2006 level.

There is absolutely no craft involved in cheating, where else with mind games you require a bit of aptitude and finesse! The other cheat deservedly has qualified 12th and I am not gonna lie about it, clearly his experience is costing his team a tenth or two! How ironical!

I may have to watch the footage again. When I first saw it, it looked like he locked the brakes, as a result he suffered under-steer which would have taken him into the barriers.

The rear snapped before he locked the front. He made a mistake early in the lap and knew he would not improve so stopped others from improving.

His position on track was not a position to take when you are trying to turn at the corner. Didn't know he had it in him.

I'll tell you what, having reviewed that, I'm having to reconsider my original opinion. His movement of the steering wheel is extremely odd.

I don't think Rosberg cheated, I believe it was a genuine mistake. For the simple reason that he'd be mad to risk a 10-place penalty in Monaco, where overtaking is impossible and starting eleventh would wipe out any hopes of a podium, even probably a top six finish. The British media want Hamilton to be wronged as he is the greatest driver in the world and the nasty German has to cheat to win.

Rosberg did it deliberately, he never tried to make the corner.

Appears you do not know a lot about the British media, they are not overly fond of Hamilton too

Hamilton beat Rosberg four times in a row and Rosbergs response was to look a bit glum.

Rosberg beats Hamilton once and Hamiltons response is to have a total meltdown over the course of the weekend.


Thats the big problem here. Hamilton may get riled easily, but to show it so publicly just encourages Rosberg (and others) to do it more and more.

Its like the F1 driver version of feeding the WUMs

Hamilton needs to grow up, moping about the place will only make Rosberg happier.
