well lets me start from the beginning.
FIA have stated that the 2 mclaren drivers lewis and fernando and the test driver pedro de la rosa they have to co-operate or they might be punished.
and i think this leads to what lewis has to say
"Ferrari are being portrayed as the most innocent team. I do not think that is the case. I do not like what ferrari are putting our team through. I know my team, and we are being unfairly treated. It would be a great feeling to win in Italy this weekend. Beating ferrari on thier home ground is going to be a huge blow to their team."

not if kimi has his way. they should punish mclaren already.they're cheating its obvious, its odd how Alonso leaves renault after winning 2 championships there for the most unreliable team in F1 at the time, mclaren.

I don't know where you got your statements from, a source would be good. I think Hamilton's comments are a bit outspoken for him, but they are exactly what I would expect him to say, and they are exactly what I feel too.
McLaren have been unfairly treated, they just got fined $50,000 for not breaking the rules and had points deducted because of a minor driver spat. There are other teams which have done worse and not one point was deducted.
I think Alonso and de la Rosa had to respond in some way because they were the originators / recipients of the email.
I think Hamilton was very wise not to respond.
The question needs to be asked how the FIA got the email. I'm guessing it didn't come from McLaren.

Don't forget Ferrari beat Mclaren at their home grand prix of Silverstone. The Mclaren guys would like to return the favour in Ferrari's homeland! I'm crossing my fingers Lewis can do it... Kimi of course is in the t car too after crashing - will that affect him?

Ferrari beat McLaren at silverstone (their home race) so I'd like to see McLaren kick butt in Italy. i have a feeling it will be Alonso though, with Lewis second. mind you Massa might just get up there and spoil McLarens day.

McLaren has the form, cars, and inner turmoil to win, and will probably do so unless there is a mechanical failure or something stupid on the track. If everyone plays for team first, and there are no dirty tricks or car problems, probably a 1M, 2F, 3F, 4M result, with anyone's guess as to whether Alonso or Hamilton will take the top spot. If I had to guess I'd say Hamilton, with Raikkonnen close second, then Massa and Alonso also close. If someone goes off, and Button stays on he could be a good wild-card for some points.

I think the first corner will decide it, the sad person putt 3 doesn`t know what he`s talking about, who wants to see people get hurt, putt 3 needs help. I reckon Hamilton will just keep his mouth shut and continue with the maturity beyond his years, if any cheating has gone on Alonso will spill the beans, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, tart. Barring a disaster a McClaren will win.

Its in Italy, and Ferrari will probably be hard to beat, and the fans in the stands will be ferrari all the way, I've been to a Italian Grand Prix in the past, its a experience...But I do love Lewis Hamilton and he's a rookie, that would be great to see him win...if he doesn't win he'll probably be in top 3..

he's determined to win,but I'd say that Alonso is more determined to win (so let's say maybe Mclaren duo on first two places would be the best for Mclaren)

Determination is one thing, getting it done another. As much as I'd like to see the McLaren's finish 1-2 in this one, I think it will be pretty tough to accomplish.

I hope the Mclarens crash into each other I don't even care if even of those two bums (Hamilton and Alonso) get hurt. I hate Mclaren for everything they've been involved in (allegedly) this season.
I have a very poor taste in my mouth from reading all the squabbles and scandals in F1 this year and I attribute most of that to Mclaren, despite their insistence that the team has great integrity!
