I'm really going to enjoy this one though.

That's how it looked to me.

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."

He's not full of himself at all.

vid of hamilton crashing right into kimi... seriously.

BTW, what's up with Hekki? Even Massa cut up traffic to get back into the points, and Hekki couldn't even pass the STR for 8th.

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

Cars may only leave the pit lane when the green light is on. Additionally, a blue flag and/or a flashing blue light will be shown in the pit exit to warn drivers leaving the pit lane if cars are approaching on the track.


it was already red.. the flashing blue just comes on when cars are passing by.. both lights can be on at the same time.. red lights on the left, blue on the right.

no idea - but you'd think jesus would be able to notice some lights flashing/cars stopping ahead of him.

Personally, i'd try to get a screen cap of him sideways from Q Nick's car with a comment about Alonso to D1.

Looks like he could have gone left and avoided them

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?

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..

[Nacho]

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.

Cubicle as WDC leader just seems odd.

I just don't recall any other track doing the lights like that, with a red at the end during a safety car period. Perhaps i just haven't been paying attention.
