Hamilton says sorry but doesn't admit guilt
Sunday 8th June 2008
Lewis Hamilton has, somewhat peculiarly, confessed he apologised to Kimi Raikkonen after their race-ending crash during the Canadian GP but refused to admit he was to blame for their prang.
The accident occurred in unusual circumstances on lap 19 of the race when Hamilton's McLaren collided with Raikkonen's stationary Ferrari at the end of the pit-lane. Raikkonen, along with the BMW of Robert Kubica, was prevented from rejoining the race by a red light that Hamilton either did not see or did not see in time to avoid the collision.
"I don't know what happened," Hamilton admitted. "I saw the two guys in front of me battling in the pit lane and I was trying to make sure I didn't get involved but then they stopped. By the time I saw the red light it was too late. It's unfortunate - I've apologised to Kimi but these things happen."
Asked whether it had been a "consolation" that Hamilton's race-ending mistake also proved terminal for his closest rival in the World Championship, the Englishman replied: "Not really. I'd rather it not happened. I was breezing it - it was going to be an easy victory."

Oh, and the shot of Emoso losing it from the rear-view camera on Q Nick's car looked epic.

I'd guess he was too focused on getting out ahead (or with) the other 2 from the pits and didn't even look up.no idea - but you'd think jesus would be able to notice some lights flashing/cars stopping ahead of him.

fisi and massa both got DSQ for it... as soon as they pit i knew it would be a red light waiting for them at the exit..I'd guess he was too focused on getting out ahead (or with) the other 2 from the pits and didn't even look up.
Why the pit exit light was still red at that point, I have no idea. I figured once the pits were green to enter during that safety car period, they'd be green to exit. Wasn't there something odd about the pit lane lights last year as well?

He went left. The closing speed was probably too high by the time he realized they were stopped to get the car over that much.Looks like he could have gone left and avoided them

find me a youtube of it and i'll gif it.Personally, i'd try to get a screen cap of him sideways from Q Nick's car with a comment about Alonso to D1.
