Is it me, or is it always the left rear tire that causes problems for McLaren?

It does seem to be that corner that messes up all their races...... wonder if someone will be fired soon.....
Such a shame formula1 shows only on pay-tv these days.
Any comments on the Ros/Ham and Ros/Alonso incidents? There are rumors that Ham and Ros will get a time penalty. Can't understand it tbh...
nothing yet.... though i think that Rosberg will end up worse off as he pulled the same move twice...
neither Hamilton or Alonso should be given any punishment for today
Isnt it allowed to pull over once? I mean Rosberg just changed directions once in defence and blocked the right side, the others just reacted differently. Ham left the track and overtook whilst Alonso hit the brakes.
Alonso should be clear, just as Ham. Only problem for Ham could be leaving the track to overtake...neither Hamilton or Alonso should be given any punishment for today
From what i saw Lewis was already committed to the pass when Rosberg shoved him off the track. Alonso was still behind him when the move was made.

I say Rosberg starts the block with Ham clear behind. Hard to tell were Hamilton was when they reached the track limits...
For comparison the Alfonso block:

Alfonso sounded mighty pissed over the radio.
Alonso had every right to be pissed... but looking at the full clip of the Hamilton incident again, i still say Lewis was fully committed to the move when Rosberg chopped him off the track... and i have to wonder how close he was being him at the time.... too close to be able to cut to the left and not ram into Rosberg's arse?
Nice smooth drive by Vettel, bringing us a fourth winner in as many races, nice that the Lotus's kept him honest though, the endless pitting and rejoining in first placelast season was pretty thrill killing.
Great drive by Kimi. Would have liked to see a few more opportunities for an overtake though. More consistant points scoring for Webber, be interesting to see where that puts him after another four or five races. Button was a little slow off the line, but generally drove fine until the nightmare in the last few laps. Hamilton was ****ed by the pitstops, but yelling at the crews on the radio mid race wasn't really going to change things.
Rosberg was a bit cheeky with the forcing people wide, be interesting to see if anything comes of it.
no punishments for Rosberg on either chops..... no punishment for Hamilton for being forced off the track..... no punishment for Alonso or Ferrari for the unsafe release.
Were there even any stewards there?
