I didn't hear about that - well out of order :cussing:

There are gonna be big questions about FIA impartiality with this decision and the one 2 weeks ago about massas pitlane pullout :angryfire:

I cannot see that decision standing up on appeal :?
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?"
She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Ferrari’s Felipe Massa has been declared the winner of Sunday’s Belgian Grand Prix after McLaren’ Lewis Hamilton was handed a 25-second time penalty following the race. Hamilton drops to third place as a result, with BMW Sauber’s Nick Heidfeld moving up to second.

Hamilton was penalised after stewards decided he had gained an advantage by cutting the final chicane in his late-race battle with Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen. McLaren plan to appeal the decision.

The revised result means that rather than extending his championship lead over Massa, Hamilton now sees it cut, with the Briton heading the Brazilian by just two points, 76 to 74, with five races remaining.

Be interesting to see how the appeal goes, I dont see how they are going to gloss this one over, bloody Ferrari having a spoilt child moment, whilst nothing was done at the last race when one of their pit boys was nearly killed!

Obviously Nazi boy needs some more money for his next party
