It seems that Williams and BMW are under investigation because their fuel during the Brazilian grand prix was too cold

man that sucks!!!!! i wouldnt wana win a world championship like that, it would make me feel bad and undeserving,

FIA is a joke, worried about 3-4 degress below the rules... i could understand 10 degrees. anyways, thats like getting a ticket in a 70MPH zone doing 73...

As much as I was pulling for Lewis, that would just be too much! : (

if the cars are illegal they're illegal. Read a quote by spyker chief engineer he says it would give them 5-10 horsepower extra. I hope the stewards just give a fair honest judgement base only on the infringement and not the consequences of the judgement.

If in the remote case the cars are excluded and Hamilton is awarded the title, i would be just as pleased for Hamilton. I wouldnt think it is rigged unless other teams come out and say the penalty was inconsistant to similar infringements or other proof given. The race is only official when scrutineering has completed.
