If we had a Chief Steward who knew how to make a decision based on anything but whining, and who would stick to it and enforce it the same way every time, there would be less whining, as well as fewer bonehead moves.
However, I nominate for bonehead of the weekend, Bourdais' move flying out of the pitlane after his first accident and smashing into Monteiro's car which was right where he left it when he went in ...
Patrick was wise to remain calm, so nobody would remember the bonehead move he pulled last year that wrecked two competitors and sent a third to the hospital. These things happen.
P.S. Townsend Bell did in fact have personal sponsorship; that is why he lasted as long as he did.
