McLaren's decision to pit Jenson was because he was about to get caught up in traffic and after his pit-stop he was in clean air, so could therefore increase his (relative) lead. If he hadn't been so unlucky with the safety car and the race being stopped for a while, he'd have probably got past Alonso and Vettel, whose tyres were about to die.
Not sure it's very fair to let people work on the cars while the race is stopped like that tho, Vettel and Alonso got a free pitstop effectively. Ruined the race for us spectators.
Hamilton was just pissed off that Shumi did that to him on the hairpin in the first lap, so tried to do it himself.
