Intent is incredibly important. Not least in being fair to him. If he purposely took some one out then it should be a long ban.
If he made a significant mistake (braked too late and misjudged his closing speed in the first lap melee) I'm fine with a penalty. However if he is consistently doing this then a time out, like with Grosjean a few years back, might be appropriate. I'm not recalling anything else significant recently, although I may have forgotten.
