With all this, Hamilton is still in the race for the championship after this race. :p

It's going to be another hour before a decision is announced.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

That's P24 then, unless they're trying to convince the stewards that it wasn't human error.

How can the worlds most advanced form of motor racing not confirm the result of a session over 3 hours since quali finished?
Was just about to post something similar.

Then again I remember the days before I had the internet when I sometimes didn't know about penalty's until a day or more later when it was in the newspaper. I remember in 1994 when Schumacher got the 2 race ban, I didn't know about it until I got back from school & watched Eurosport's evening repeat of Friday qualifying at Monza over a week later :lol:

Yes, but this is 4 hours to decide on whether or not he had enough fuel. It's a little ridiculous.

I think they know how much fuel there was.

The question is whether a mechanical issue with the fuel system forced him to stop or whether they made the same mistake as McLaren.

Ted Kravitz has said he understands the problem was low fuel pressure in the fuel collector.

Hamilton was denied a certain victory in Barcelona because of this, can't take this to lightly. If he will walk with just a reprimand shit will hit the fan.

for the sake of the championship hopefully it is a fuel issue and will be send to the back.

But it would look a bit unfair towards Vettel if he would need to start from the back of the grid because of that...

This is what I would like to happen tomorrow.

Hopefully Vettel gets sent to the back of the grid and scores no points, Webber, Hamilton, or Alonso wins the race,
and Alonso retakes the point lead with 2 races to go after Sunday.

So, we'll see what happens.

Vettel gets a penalty and people will accuse FIA of Ferrari bias.

Christain Horner refused to talk to journalist's when he just left the stewards room but said the FIA would release a statement shortly.

That sounds like there's been some sort of penalty, If there wasn't then surely he's have said something.
