He was already on the brakes champ. The Braking point is right at the crest. Westbrook made an intentional move to the inside off his line. He also had another earlier.

Westbrook is a moron. What a crappy move.

Yep, correct to penalise the 90 for a deliberate swerve into a car that probably would've passed him if he didn't punt him off the road.

P2s are going to handle better, Westy knew that, he probably wanted to kill his momentum so he'd get a better drive up the hill but took this far too far in his efforts to do so.

#3 should get a penalty for an unsafe release.

I'm guessing Westy got pinged for that hip check on Brundle before going up the hill? Not the move into the corkscrew.


Gutted for the #1 which has ground to a halt.

Forget about 1:16 from last year. Back in '08 the De Ferran and Highcroft cars dipped into the 1:10's! P2 is unrecognizable.

That was before P2s and P1s had the regs change.

P2 cars going out on their swords. Real shame for the #1 which looked most likely to break the deadlock.

I can say that with a little more vigor now. The Risi Ferrari jumped both Vettes and the Porsche in the pits. Is probably on a 1 stopper too so good chance to get around both BMW's. Risi victory would be out of nowhere.

Yep. But P1 is back and even faster than ever. P2 is down 10 seconds.

Yep.

Wonder how much complaining there will be if a DP car wins again because the P2's all took themselves out...

The 90 did it's best to make sure the 42 didn't see the finish.

Really? For all that posturing neither #1 or #42 looked even close to making a pass on a DP.

Of course, this is the perfect time for someone to make the short-sighted "Look, the P2s would be fine if they didn't take themselves out" argument.
