To say that the move should have been cleaner because he had the superior car is to choose to have a very simple understanding of the dynamics of racing and following another car.

What if Hamilton spends another 2 laps behind button destroying his tires, and effecting the cooling of the engine, turbo, and so on. Then in the process and he doesn't reach the podium.

Hamilton didn't spend any longer than he needed too behind these cars. He made the moves. All credit to him. He is driving like someone who knows the consequences of following other cars for too long. Especially when Rosberg has the track to himself and is running in first...

Like they always say. Catching a guy is 1 thing. Passing him is another. Alonso lost a world championship because of this.
