  1. so as a fan of the sport im not allowed to scrutinize what goes on because im not an official fia staff member? lol ok then
    No, you're not.
    You're a fan. You get to watch races live or on TV and do trillion other things evolving around F1. But as for things like huge accidents which might lead to a driver dying or at least being seriously injured, I can see why they wouldn't want armchair experts like us to start riots over our unqualified opinion.

    Besides, why are you so keen on having that footage? We all know what happened, we can all imagine how it looked like, I don't see why there's a need to see everything in detail - unless you have some sort of weird fetish watching horrific accidents. In which case I can only shake my head in disgust.

    The only place he's beaten Lewis this year is at a track where overtaking is 95% impossible. 
    Considering Lewis was on the back of Nico after lap 1 in Austria, I think that counts too. 

    On the Mclaren situation though:
    Magnussen is an extremely talented driver and has a bright future ahead of him. He's been very unlucky in a lot of races this season and has shown himself to have impressive pace in qualifying. As a rookie, that's the thing you want to see. Race craft and race pace can be easily improved upon with experience. A point to prove this would be that Nico Hulkenberg got pretty much dominated points wise by Barrichello in his debut season, and now he's one of the most highly rated drivers in the paddock. 

    So, looking at the whole picture and not just the points situation, Magnussen would easily be my pick as the driver to take the team forwards for the future. 
    Yeah I guess actually, forgot about that race. The thing is its like, what, 9-5 to Lewis in wins? Also a similar stat, whenever both of them have started on the front row, Hamilton has come out on top every time I believe according to DC (minus Monaco of course).  
    It's actually 9-4 in terms of wins.
