He didnt want to admit that the teams Failed Kers system cost them the race

I'm going to put this off topic to rest now.
The reason why Hamilton caught and overtook Vettel, was because that Vettels tires was worn down.
Of course the fact that Vettel had no KERS, didn't help him, but in the former two races, Red Bull have proven that their car is just as fast as the McLaren, without KERS (ei. see the Malaysian GP, where Vettel is told not to use KERS, but still pulls a gap to Hamilton).
KERS is something that can close the gap between the best car, and the second best, and equalize them (in speed). But Red Bull has proven that a good car is more important that KERS.
But red line between this thread and the F1 race is fading, so please let it rest. (otherwise i have a feeling someone is going to get warnings)
