Message: <blockquote data-quote="FVel" data-source="post: 2420428" data-attributes="member: 48425">Indeed.The reason I posted that reply and the link to those articles is because I think a lot of people, by default, blamed Alonso without looking further into the events that led to the pit-block. Things are not as straightforward as people like to believe.People need to realize that Hamilton disobeyed team orders possibly knowing that this might wind-up Alonso (which it did) who retaliated in kind at the pits. Then Hamilton had a foul mouthed argument with his boss and mentor Ron Dennis over the radio regarding the pit incident, which he later admitted and which was also confirmed by Alonso. After qualifying, Hamilton's dad and Hamilton himself talked to FIA officials which ultimately resulted in an investigation that got Alonso and McLaren penalized. What a way to rat out your own team. He attempted to do something similar at Monaco when he sounded out about 'team orders' after he came second to Alonso...that also prompted the FIA to look into things but in that instance nothing much happend in way of punitive decisions.Now Alonso is no angel himself. He stopped being nice and became quite the drama queen in 2006 when Schumi was closing the Championship gap. But as you rightly said most folks know and understand (and even condone) the kind of self-centred ruthless mentality needed to succeed in F1. It's just that many people still think Hamilton is some wide-eyed, innocent, goody two shoes, squeaky clean gentlemen...which he is most definitely not. But I'll give him credit for rplaying a very polished PR game with the media and certainly the more naive general public is just lapping it all up. He certainly knows how to make some of the most nauseating self-serving horsesh*t speeches after his victory in Hungary....oh...all for the team, blah blah blah and such. Did you see Ron Dennis when Hamilton crossed the line ? He was so pissed off he didn't even smiled. LOL Personally I do not support either driver (Hamilton or Alonso). Admittedly 2007 is turning out to be one of the most exciting F1 seasons for some time and more so for the off-track antics as the on-track events.</blockquote>
