Lewis Hamilton will find out today whether or not his appeal to be reinstated as the winner of this years Belgian Grand Prix is successful. With any luck justice will be done, Formula 1 and the FIA will be put back in their place (to govern racing, not kiss the ass of Ferrari) and racing will be the winner.

Hamilton was full of balls at the hearing yesterday, turning around and giving Ferrari counsel, Nigel Tozzi a fist full of attitude. Good on him. I don’t understand why Ferrari are involved at all, it should be a case of Mclaren versus the governing body, not Ferrari. Hamilton asked Tozzi at one point, “Are you a racing driver? NO!”

Tozzi then told Hamilton to “stop personalising” the issue as he was under instruction from Ferrari, who “know as much about Formula One as you do”. Hamilton replied, “With respect, I doubt it.” He’s right. Ferrari are a company, the knowledge of Ferrari is contained within the individuals who have come and gone over the years. Hamilton is UNDOUBTADLY the most talented out and out racer on the planet today. It’s refreshing to see a British sports personality who has personality, cockyness for sure but when you’re good then you shouldn’t have a problem telling people how good you are. Especially arguing with somebody who is only being paid to voice an opinion on a subject of which they have no experience.

If Hamilton and McLaren don’t win this then in my mind Formula 1 is corrupt, simple as that.
