That gray area is really not that gray...
(except when you're the one moving left & right)
-Move from the racing line to the other side of the track = 1st move.
-Move back from the other side of the track to the racing line= 2nd move.
That's why I suggested Schumi should've just stayed on the other side so there would be no discussion. That's normal, legal and fair "blocking" since when doing so, you lose some speed in the corner because you're not in preferred racing line but the guy who you are blocking benefits since his corner exit speed can be faster. Not to mention it's safer that way.

Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali believes that the scuderia’s current driver Fernando Alonso is the best Formula 1 driver of the current era and has strengths greater than Michael Schumacher during the German’s Maranello heyday.
Yep he said it .... Better than Faux7 ..

I didn't think there was anything wrong with the way MS was driving.
Watch from the 7 min. mark to the end. I was clearly faster than the guy in front of me, but he had better straight line speed and I had better speed in the corners. He went defensive and cut across my bow a couple times between turn 3 and 4 when we were side by side, but never conceded the apex to me. I thought it was good defensive racing on his part and it was up to me to find a way by him.
It's part of racing -- especially at the highest level of motorsports.

^^^ I think you were being very polite Jack, Now i understand why he makes those ridiculous statements and see nothing wrong with Faux 7's antics...

^^^ Read post #166 on page 12. The fans loved it. Besides, why would a penalty be given when you can just tell the MB team to have him give the spot up, not unlike when someone cuts a chicane and gains a spot.
TexasRider, you are absolutely correct. Wayne does more disserve to Alonso fans than anything. Got to admit, he is keeping his mouth shut and driving.
However, that might be because he knows he has no chance. Today, Ferrari has conceded they are throwing in the towel and the 2011 car will no longer be developed.
For Wayne there is always "Next Year". BUT!!! We are returning to the scene of the crime a few years ago where Alonso grabbed his most prestigious win of his career in Malasyia when he started on low fuel from the back of the pack, made a timely pit stop and then stormed to victory....... after ordering his teammate to crash into the wall and bring out a safety car..

Ahhh, that's okay Wayne, you almost did it. Acceptance of others besides FA is healthy.... I"m sure if FA had been able to reach the pedals, he would have beat MS, if he had the right car...
if the team didn't screw up
if the tires were the right compound
if Piquet was his teammate
if Michelin had the 1 tire rule
if he had Ferrari's dossier
if he didn't have a Russian rookie in his way.

I would imagine your not a chess player either because you can't see a few steps ahead. 
You do realize that the Alonso bashers are going to post the pass on the outside and in the grass that Vettel made on Alonso just a couple days ago at Monza thereby throwing your Vettel is crap and Alonso is god theory out the window? Don't you? Maybe not, never mind

..I'm answering Petal's question and to compare ........................... well tells me a lot .
PS: For the record i was a competitive chess player many moons ago and Alonso is not God, just the "one" ...
