2012 Formula One Spanish Grand Prix

They should change the rules to a way that the team gets penalized and not the driver. For example the driver starts on the pole, but in the end they strip some places/points from the team and not from the driver. Isn't Hamilton fault...this coming from a Williams fan, but just isn't fair for the driver.

What happens now? All cars move one place or the pole position place gets empy? An for historical terms... Hamilton still gets his name on pole position or if not who gets it? Pastor? Not a fair decision to the driver.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Viva Pastor Great to see him on pole!
How long has that been, a Williams on pole position?

Hahaha, don't trust anyone who doesn't have a source to back him up.

READ!!!!

It's not true. Your welcome.

Dosen't mean what I just said is true. You asked us to tell you it isn't true. I just told you it wasn't true, however I am lying.

it's a pity, a real pity for hamilton

 

[Bradley Vanian]

Hahaha, don't trust anyone who doesn't have a source to back him up.

Well, thats pretty extreme, but nothing new. Thankfully Massa starts 17th so it could be very interesting tomorrow.

Not very much, 2 years ago Hulk got pole in Brazil

It's kinda true McLaren should have at least 3 wins out of 4 races by now if they wouldn't screw over their drivers every time. But this also shows what a great job RB was doing last year - Newey built them a great car, but they also made actual use of it.

Oh well, on the bright side: Hamilton said the car feels great, so we might get to enjoy one of his charges through the field

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Yea a new highlight definitely!

 

[Mike85]

I think many teams are now exploding from happiness!

7 years...

 

[Bradley Vanian]

7 years...

2 Years. 2010 Brazilian GP

 

[Hampus Andersson]

7 years...

More like 2 years

Oh yes of course!!!!!!!!!!!! Was also such an insane qualy.

 

[António da Cunha]

Didn't remember that one.

Hamilton is excluded from the race tomorrow.

Alright, this makes a lot of sense. Narain Karthikeyan can't even qualify 2 seconds within the 107% rule...

and the one that gets pole is excluded from the race.

wat.

 

[Jordi Casademunt]

So, both HRTs start in front of a McLaren. Huge success!

Seriously, it's kind of dumb to penalize a driver for a team mistake. Make it so his points this race and the next don't count for the constructor championship, now that would be a punishment for the team.

Also, nice to see Fernando in the front row. It was a weird Q3, but he still made it in front of both Lotus and Mercedes. Massa 17th though. And Maldonado in pole, nice for Williams. Hopefully he'll have a nice race.

excluded from the race??
I thought he would be starting 24th??

 

[António da Cunha]

Being stripped from the pole is bad enough... starting last is horrible... excluded from the race is pure exageration!!!

 

[Hampus Andersson]

He will start 24th,
