Maldonado receives 20 seconds penalty, he is now classified 12th.

That said, why the hell did Senna get a drive through? There was no gap for Kobayashi to make that pass.

The stewards are nuts in both cases, imo.

Maldonado's penalty was completely justified, Hamilton was ahead on him when Mal went out of the track and he was penalized for failing to enter the track in a safe manner.

If you think Hamilton was at fault then you should also blame Maldonado for his coming together with Grosjean in Melbourne.

Maldonado's penalty was kind of small.

I think that says something.

I only said Hamilton was stupid...

I continue to hold that position.

I have looked at the video many times, and Hamilton is an idiot.

But then, I have always thought so.

that's what i found on 2nd and 3rd attempts. i'm going to run it by my italiano friend to see if it's legit or gibberish

 

[LTC8K6]

It means something like "really fantastic" I think.

I saw that and absolutely cringed. How horrible is that?

 

[busydude]

Pretty terrible news. She had a long way to go to recover.

So, Silverstone Festival coming up, with rain, rain, and possibly even changing weather conditions.

Likely to get quite exciting...

That probably won't happen unless F1 reaches NASCAR status in the US... which is also probably never.

 

[punjabiplaya]

man, Alonso really is that good. Good quali

 

[satyajitmenon]

Good race.

I wonder - is this the year Webber finally wins a Drivers Championship?

Well, not if Alonso has anything to say about it, I guess.

 

[busydude]

Good to see Webber come back to his winning ways.

Maldonado.. gets a reprimand and a fine.. WTF? He is getting off way too easy.

 

[abaez]

Maldonado needs to be suspended for a race or something.

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

What a great race! Say what you will about KERS, DRS, and Pirelli's tires, but this has been the most exciting season in years.
