However Depends what the FIA make up this time

Will this mickey mouse organisation hand out a rational penalty or just give Lewis another rub of the green after 2 humungous let offs recently ?

Personally don't see why he should be penalised - the team defo, but not the driver what influence would he have on which set of wets were fitted? More to the point what advantage would he get in any case?
Rules of F1 in my book-
Build fastest car you can, go on green light, race.

Oh yes, even his dad said they weren't too upset, but if only he had kept calm when alonso took him .... even with the very strange loss of gears for 30 seconds, he may well have been able to do it

I knew the second he made that mistake that he wouldn't do it, I think we forget how young he really is sometimes.

He lost the gears when he was changing his knickers after the start.

Out of interest, what were the odds on him not being this season's Champion after the Jap GP?

Maybe the fat lady is still just clearing her throat??

""Lewis Hamilton could still become the 2007 Formula 1 Drivers' title after it was revealed that BMW are reportedly being investigated for fuel irregularities at the end of the Brazilian Grand Prix.

Although no word has been given by the governing body, BBC News claimed in their 10 ‘o' Clock bulletin that the
FIA are investigating both BMWs, which finished fifth and sixth, for irregularities with their fuel.

A spokesperson claimed the FIA had concerns of the 'fuel temperatures', with an insider claiming it was 'too cold'.""
