got large LCD tvs. also there is a tower that shows the placing of cars
also Lewis is thinking logically for Malaysia
QUOTE(Lewis Hamilton)
"Going into the weekend I knew we could have a race where we didn't get any points," added Hamilton.
"Ferrari only got one last year, but they came back and were strong later on, so anything is possible.
"But in going to Malaysia there will be a bigger difference between us and the Brawn cars. We'll be further behind.
"It's going to be even harder for us because the car is incredibly tough to drive, probably the hardest I've ever had to drive.
"Malaysia is more dependent on downforce and aero, so I think there will be a bigger gap, but hopefully by China (a fortnight later), and from then on, we'll be a little closer."

McLaren had been ecluded from Aussie GP.... PFFT. Not that I am taking anythign away from the FIA and the stewards but... - They could have checked the telemetry and data before giving the ruling at Australia - FIA has said that any ruling that involves a time penalty cannot be taken back (Spa 2008 anyone?) - Toyota already said that they are satisfied with the penalty
Wether or not McLaren, who asked about the penalty in the first place gave misleading data should not have been an issue if the stewards had done their job in the first place.

'McLaren understands that the Stewards made their decision on the basis of reviewing radio transmissions between the driver and the team," McLaren said in a statement.
Whitmarsh was also quick to defend his driver after the FIA used the term "deliberately misleading" in their statement.
"There's no indication that Lewis lied," Whitmarsh said.
"There was no lie within that hearing. We the team made a mistake, that we didn't supply a full account of a radio conversation we believe was being listened to in any case and we don't believe was material to the decision being made by the stewards<-- so now what? The FIA can overturn a decision just because the stewards are not doing their job?

As someone pointed out

Complete rubbish - I can't think of another sport which would allow the final result to be a temporary measure until the final race outcome had been decided. What's the point of the podium if they can change the outcome afterwards? In my mind, simply employ enough permanent 'match officials' to make the decisions there-and-then and make F1 transparent enough for them to have access to all the telemetary and pit communications in real-time. No appeals should be allowed, I know F1 is a technical sport, but if issues can't be decided in the two hours a race is on the something is seriously wrong and it's damaging for the sport. Can you imagine the FA cup result being decided an hour after the game finished, let alone 5 days? Absurd.
Exactly, even if a referee has wrongly given someone a red card. The most the FA can do is to retreat it after the race but more importantly, it does not influence the outcome of the game. Same case for those goals that didn't cross the line.
seriously, F1 is getting worse in my eye. this season's ugly car simple means i'll stop buying f1 diecast, maybe next season i'll just stop watching

i doubt u will stop watching it. haha
For me If Mclaren is not having good performance i will still watch it just to hope for some miracle.
Lewis gonna win in Sepang...unless the FIA intervene again....
Seriously, FIA dun wan a 3,4,5 way fight to the title...they only wan the bloody red cars to win..and thats final....Brawn is gonna get their arses kicked if they win again...but lucky for them...Sir Richard Branson came with a lot of influence in money and girls for the survival of the F1 sport.
What happen in the transcript the radio transmission Lewis and the pit is their personal problem...
What matters is Trulli said the McLaren slowed down to let him pass...which is not true. The McLaren never slowed to to let him pass (real actions), even if the transcripts mention other wise (only words)....how can Trulli know that Lewis is slowing down?
Telemetry evidence should that in the lap before, he was on the same speed...thats the only thing FIA throw into the rubbish bin..
