For me ignoring blue flags for 10+ laps is beyond fair. I don't mind a bit of blocking for position - I think MS at Monza was ok to be honest, but if you're a lap down that's a step too far.

I hesitate to say it, but the blue flags only appeared when someone complained, and after the Ricard start debacle it just looked like someone was "owed" a win, if that doesn't sound too conspiratorial.
