Absolutely ridiculous; so what we learn is that it's better not to bother making corner. Why even try since you just run on and join ahead of the person trying to pass you?

Coulthard is an awful, partial, jingoistic idiot; i lose track of the amount of times he makes borderline racist comments about Italians and yet what Vettel says is unacceptable! Hypocrit!

Vette is only saying what we are all thinking.

He does get flustered in head to head competition though doesn't he??

You can't always have a dominant car Seb.

The problem is if Lewis does the same, and there is no penaly. Then the cannot give a penalty to Max.

But both drivers should have been given a penalty or something. This is not serious.

On the other hand, easy victory for Lewis, excellent drive. Nico has been slow all the weekend so the second position is good.

Update!!! 5 seconds penalty for Max!!! and Max is talking to Lewis saying "you dont receive a penaly and in my case yes?".

Surely Vettel must be penalised as well he clearly moved under braking and hardcore squeezed Ric.

An F word to Charlie, punishment should be on the way. Absolute hipocracy from leadership, Hamilton was not punished, and jet Verstappen got it. This is just silly and stupid...

Sebastian is talking too much. He was right to complain but his words were totally inappropiate.

Stewards always are pretty lenient on whatever happens at first couple of corners

Some1 explain why Ves was penalised. Vettel wasn't even alongside for good measure. How exactly can Ferrari claim that place ? Just because of better tires and DRS ? LOL.

WHAT A JOKE.

Coulthard is remarkably even worse than Brundle (didn't hear this one but no surprise).

- Another 2 below basic moves by Verstappen against Vettel, let's wait for FIA, clear penalty.
- Verstappen's move on Rosberg - car allows the first phase talent doesn't allow the second, just like Kvyat's in China, basic. At least he didn't crash. That's called running out of talent.
- Not sure without replays but Vettel on Ricciardo might have been dreaded changing lines in the braking zone [-o< .

- Track is pointless, tow doesn't indeed work even with evil DRS, tyres last forever, good old days F1 everyone loves
- Red Bull make a lot of noise and do little on track. I'm surprised people are buying their "we're going to challenge Mercedes" every race, champions of media fiction.
