McClaren are well bent, I wouldnt put it past some of them behind the scenes to fuck with Hamilton's gear box.
What looked impossible for him not long ago is starting to look a lot more possible now.

Yeah i'd thought that, wouldn't suprise me if some of Alonso's boys had done something to Lewis' car, wouldn't put it past Fernando. |

McClaren blew it big time. Shit week for England. Yeah they did, again. It is down to them that he hasn't won the title. Had they got the tyres right in China and had they got it right today we would have a different world champion that is for sure. Yeah it really is. Bring on next year! |

Kimi Raikkonen's world title has been thrown into doubt following an inquiry into the cars of BMW Sauber and Williams at the Brazilian Grand Prix.
Race stewards are investigating alleged irregularites with the cars' fuel.
Williams's Nico Rosberg was fourth in the race, followed by BMW Sauber's Robert Kubica and Nick Heidfeld.
If they were disqualified, McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton would be promoted to fourth, giving him enough points to displace Raikkonen as world champion.
The 22-year-old Englishman went into the race leading the title chase, but finished only seventh after a series of problems.
He dropped down to eighth on the first lap after running off the road trying to pass team-mate Fernando Alonso.
606: DEBATE
Give your reaction to the news here
And then on lap eight he dropped to the tail of the field when his gearbox slipped into neutral, costing him 40 seconds before it started to work again.
Raikkonen led home team-mate Felipe Massa in a Ferrari one-two to clinch the title by one point from Hamilton.
Alonso finished on the same points as Hamilton, but the Spaniard was classified as third on countback.
The problem that could yet see Hamilton installed as the first man to win the title in his first season is a fuel temperature irregularity on the Williams and BMW Sauber cars.
A statement from the sport's governing body, the FIA, said the fuel in the cars was "more than [the permitted] 10 degrees below the ambient temperature".
Filling the car with cooler fuel can give a car an advantage.
Cooler fuel is denser, so either it can mean it takes slightly less time to refuel the car or marginally more can be added in the same time.
And it would give a slight power advantage for about three laps before it returned to ambient temperature out on the track.
Excluding the cars would risk turning one of the most exciting championship finales in F1 history into a farce.
But if the cars are found to have run fuel below the legal temperature, the stewards might feel obliged to disqualify them, even though the advantage conferred would almost certainly have had no bearing on the title race.
However, there is a precedent that could be used by race stewards not to exclude them.
In 1995, the Benetton-Renault of Michael Schumacher and the Williams-Renault of David Coulthard were initially disqualified from first and second places in the Brazilian Grand Prix because their fuel did not conform to samples approved by the FIA.
But a week later the FIA reinstated the drivers' points but docked the teams their constructors' points.
In that case, though, no advantage was gained by the irregularity.

I think it'd make a farce to the whole season but i dunno, rules are rules i guess.
Hamilton wouldn't wanna get the title like this surely. Much rather win it on the track next year.
