But that's preciesly what the 55 yard (or whatever it is) zone is meant to resolve (all be it as a guideline, not an enforceable rule). In most pitlanes, including China, it is downright dangerous to have two cars side by side and wheel to wheel.

Realistically the punishment for the release and pitlane fun should be aimed at the team(s) rather than driver(s) - and I'll accept it isn't easy to judge which of the teams is most at fault.

As for the silly stuff on entry to the pitlane, that was blatantly Hamilton's fault and very nearly took the pair of them out.
