Tony Clifton should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Why didn't the teams change tires? (merged again)

In the first pit stop, especially for Hamilton, why didn't Mcaren at least put on a new set of intermediate tires?
Timewise the pit was almost 6 seconds just for fuel, tires could hae been done in that time frame.
I realize they were trying to keep track position, but the right front on Hamilton was very worn and McLaren should have been thinking points, even a 4th place finish by Hamilton would have given him the championship over Raikkonen and only allowed Alonso to pick up 3 points virtually guaranteeing Hamilton the WDC.
POINTS, POINTS, POINTS!!!!
