I don't think Speed commentators should let personal preference overshaddow their presentation of the facts. He ran up the back of Alonso's car without any analysis. He gave the "bird" to Fisi (I believe), they showed it on tv but the Speed crew mentioned it but didn't dwell. Both of those incidents should have been investigated but were not. It bothers me a bit but this sort of thing happens. I think the Speed crew like him because he is Brittish (not because of his African connection).

This does seem to be another great season. Not because Hamilton fell behind but because BMW is showing real pace. By Europe they could be running with Mclaren (according to their own analysis of course).

You have to admit, we haven't been hearing much from him lately and alot of press has been given to his mistreatment while at Mclaren by Hamilton.

Default Hamilton wing

I was able to determine from video replay that Hamilton's wing was damaged before his last collision with Alonso. He had actually punted Alonso before and his wing was shredding parts right up to when he drove over the back of the Renault.
So as per Mclaren release , Yes , his wing was damaged previously .......
