The more I read of this the less I can beleive.
Firstly drivers were complaining it was to dangerous to start at all it was a brave thing to call a start to the race when it was done, it was made under the safest conditions possible, a safety car. If Alonso was fast enough he would've got ahead of Hamilton in the pit stop but he got himself stuck behind other cars and got tangled up in there problems.
Why should Alonso be pissed? McLaren always had the policy that their drivers were equal until a certain point in the season where one is clearly ahead of the other one, did he expect McLaren to kiss his feet? If he had ever watched McLaren in the past he should've known better and hes been better served than stay at the slower Renault team.
Hamilton has every right to break test, its how Schumacher crashed with Montoya in Monaco a few years back I'd be willing to wager you Ferrari lot wouldn't be saying that the work of a cheating prick or whatever you chose to call him.
Furthermore notice the scandal was between De La Rosa and Alonso meaning that they have been sharing setups separate to that of Hamilton doesn't that sound a lot like preferential treatment to Alonso?
No way was Hamilton chopping off Kubica, it makes NO sense. He is racing Raikkonen and Alonso for the championship Kubica could've driven off into the sunset and won it, it wouldn't have really mattered. It is my opnion that championship contenders should be treated with a little more caution, nobody wants to see a championship decided by a driver tripping over someone who isn't a part of the battle. Though if he really felt he had the pace on him fair enough.
Hamilton has been fairly professional considering Alonso drove him off the road in Spa. People complain hes Ron's baby, Ron wants him to concentrate on his driving as all this spy stuff clearly did rattle him and he had been off the pace for quite a few races. Montoya isn't as fast as Alonso and Hamilton and Alonso are pretty evenly matched. He did well to skip off to Nascar before he was pushed out of McLaren.
