Hamilton disqualified from Australian GP

Thursday, April 2nd 2009, 08:49 GMT

Lewis Hamilton has been disqualified from the Australian Grand Prix and Jarno Trulli's post-race penalty rescinded, giving the Toyota driver third place again.

The two drivers had been summoned to meet the stewards in Malaysia this morning after new evidence came to light regarding their incident behind the safety car, which saw Trulli regain third place from Hamilton under yellow having slid off the road.

Trulli had insisted that Hamilton had slowed dramatically and allowed him past, but the stewards originally opted to give the Italian a 25 second penalty for illegal overtaking, dropping him to 12th in the results and elevating Hamilton onto the podium.

That decision has now been reversed and Hamilton thrown out of the Melbourne results.

Hahahahahahahahaha.

Ahem.

Seriously, how stupid can McLaren get? If they'd have just said something then it might've been fine. Lewis was going so slowly that Trulli had to re-pass. It makes no sense that they told him to let Trulli back through, it makes no sense that he listened to them and did let him back through and it definitely makes no sense that they just happened to not mention that they had told him to let Trulli through.

Good, Trulli deserves those points.

Unlucky Jenson, looks like he won't get back to back wins.

It's pouring down in Malaysia and the Brawn hasn't been tested in the rain before.

PS. Let me the first of many this season to say "the stewards are biased towards Ferrari"

:P

It's not Ferrari bias. If it was then they'd have had to actually have gained something from that. It's McLaren being retards and all the Hamilton fans who suddenly started watching deciding they know about F1 and it being a rubbish decision if Hamilton loses out... ffs.

It's not bias, it does seem that Lewis has to do everything the hard way

Massa went out early, like all of the drivers, hhe did 4 laps and was up in the top 10. Ferrari bought him and Raikonnen in, and all of the other drivers continued to get faster. When they realised they were faster, it was too late to send him back out. Ferrari's tactics messed it up for Massa

Hmm... Red flagged...

"We're all talking about half points now... But how would this translate under Bernie's 'race wins' system? Half a win for Jenson??!"

Hamilton moved down again...

And well done to...

Button

Well, it was good while it lasted.

I do not get the point of putting things as spoilers when there is not going to be a replay. If it was shown again in the afternoon then ok.

So it's tough luck if I spoil anyone.

Jense did an epic bit of driving to put himself ahead after his pit stop. I am impressed.

Felipe baby made me giggle.

I am still thoroughly enjoying watching the whole programme again.

I don't think they'll be making the mistake of putting the race on so late again next year...

Oh and also 6th place for Webber! Finally, 'some' points. Watching Lewis look unamused at being told he was 7th not 8th amused me no end. At least they sorted it out now though.

      Radio 2 Schedule Changes

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
