Looking at perez norris stuff once again, it's norris who should get two penalties. One for intentionally turning into an opponent, second one for cutting the track and gaining an advantage. Perez is fully in control of his car, it wasn't any sort of divebomb, and norris let the door open completely.
When I first saw the contact, i did initially think it looked a little clumsy from Norris. But when it happened, I was in an airport walking with my tablet and a suitcase in tow while watching the race, and as such didn't have the opportunity to look further into it at the time. I thought it was 50/50 between racing incident and Perez penalty.
But now I've just rewatched it, including their onboards, and it definitely was a divebomb.
First: Perez missed the apex. That's not being in control of your car. You want to go for an inside overtake, you have to make the apex. That's the lesson from Silverstone 21. Lando knew he was coming, gave him plenty of space - so much that he basically was conceding the position - and then Perez doesn't use the space fully, and would have gone wide enough on the exit that he would, in all likelihood, have ran Norris off the track if they haven't collided.
In addition, looking at the onboard, Perez isn't alongside Norris until at the very end of the strait before the apex. He's coming with increased speed from behind, brakes late, doesn't make the apex. That's textbook definition of a divebomb unless it's executed flawlessly.
It wasn't as clumsy as his move on Albon in Singapore, but it still just about qualifies as a divebomb. Perez isn't fully to blame, but he was
predominantly to blame, which is the requirement for getting a penalty.
And as such, Lando getting rammed off the track is the fault of Perez, and no penalty applies to the second part of your post either regarding going off track. Perez isn't entitled to be given the position back when he caused a collision and rammed another driver off the track.
