Hamilton’s post race comments verged on calling Ferarri cheats, that’s not good. Vettel and Hamilton are chalk and cheese, Vettel highly intelligent, a linguist and a very private family man. I’m sure Hamilton had some intelligence but he comes across to me as someone who wants to be a celebrity. Do you know, In his nearly 6 years with Mercedes I’ve never heard him utter a single word of German.

Good points OP and I must admit that I was unaware of the post race comments. So I will watch more carefully in future. Ferrari certainly look like they've got the edge now anyway.

So what are the thoughts now? I seem to be in the minority on here but I thought that Hamilton drove a fine race at Monza. That he has matured quite markedly is my view and it is quite clear that some other teams do try to get him to lose his cool and mess things up for himself. That is an uphill task these days.
But does anyone else feel that team bosses are doing too much manipulation these days. Drivers are constantly being told what do do and how to approach things. The outcome is less on the drivers skill and more on team tactics nowadays.

Vettel would never ever do anything like that would he?

What I saw on my tv ,was Vettel under steering in to the side of Hamilton causing him to spin , but a great comeback drive

Well I liked to see a British win, even if the car was German instead of Italian.
