Whilst I agree that it was a risky manoeuvre (but isn't that what racing, especially Formual One, is all about), it was not unprecedented, nor was it subsequently avoided by others, in exactly the same place and under the same circumstances. The difference being is that the drivers who were behind, gave way. I do think that Webber is more to blame the Hamilton. Hamilton was ahead of him and Webber probably should have yielded. Webber even said before the race that he was prepared to do anything to ensure he wins the championship.

Sometimes discretion is the better part of valour, but at the same time Lewis wouldn`t be Lewis if he didn`t go-for-it. 
Really, really hope Alonso doesn`t win the drivers crown, go on the Aussie 
Is it just me or has that track got to be one of the most boring circuits on the calender? The only thing that gives it some allure is the fact it`s driven at night with all the flashing lights and fabulous background. Kubica did some passing late on which was something but that was just fresh tyres and go for a few points, the ones he passed didn`t seem to put up much of a fight. The rest of the race was tedious imo...

Because those three points could mean the difference between being first or nowhere.

I believe it was a puncture.
