nothing will happen that will effect the race IMO, as this tense finish means too much to the FIA, and the sport in general.

How did he break the rules?
Surely it's the 500 (guess) strong team behind him that broke the rules?

More grip = quicker times, although I'm not sure why that makes any difference in a practice session, only qualifying

Probably were able to test two different wet weather compounds or pressures or something else to do with tyres, so can work out which type is best for qualifying and the race.

He finished 1st fastest didnt he? Or was that just after the first session?
Maybe they now know the first set of tyres were better for tomorrow though.

They probably just wanted to make sure they didn't make the same mistake as they did in Japan.

There is an agenda from somewhere against him internally, he's cocky, brash and whisper it now in case some one hears it, he's coloured.

I actually think otherwise.
The only reason the McLaren drivers didnt get punished during this whole Ferrari thing was because of Hamilton rejuvenating the sport - and if they took him out the title race then would hurt F1 as a whole. I also think he has got away with a few other things that majority of others may not of.

I think the FIA didn't punish the thing with Webber like they would have with someone else.
It'd definitely be bad for the sport if Hamilton was removed from the equation for this weekend.

Hardly. He wouldn't have got within spitting distance of where he is if there was a racist agenda.

He may have breathed new life into the sport but you can guarantee there are hard-liners within the FIA that don't want a rookie winning on his first year especially 1 such as Hamiton. It will have the feel of making a mockery of the whole sport for some.
