Aha, but you are not taking into account the difficulty of Whiting having to translate the language in the McLaren argument against. Given the spoken language at Macca is all "Ronspeak".

Oh you just have to love the work of the stewards!
Massa’s mistake should have resulted in a drive-through penalty for a jump start, but race director Charlie Whiting was unaware of the error after neither track-side marshals nor the electronic automatic jump start system alerted him to the positioning of the Ferrari. [ITV-F1] Not a bad result, but mentioned by Brundle on the commentary as Massa did it .... brilliant, just brilliant! |

How do you feel about some of Rosberg's defensive moves?
The stewards reckon no case to answer! Alonso doesn't seem to agree http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/99102 |

Trouble is, the stewards are so inconsistant, Michael got penalised for doing that to Rubens in Hungary, yet nothing happened when Fernando put Seb in the grass in Monza. |

Seems like th right cause of action IMHO, although I wouldn't have disagreed with a penalty for Rosberg. Certainly not in a wnut way.

Should Hamilton not have been penalized for getting of the track and gaining an advantage?

If you put it that way, he gained 2 advantages, because he also gained a position.

What about Vettel in Monza? He also gained a position on Alonso off the track.

Rosberg forced Hamilton off the track so I don't see how you could penalise Hamilton. And both times, Rosberg was almost if not off the track himself...
Consistency would be nice. There wasn't really anything different with this compared to Schumacher in 2010. If the driver behind has moved out of the slipstream and has committed to a move, you shouldn't really be moving about the way Rosberg was. It's dangerous. Next time there might not be a concrete runoff area for Hamilton or Alonso to bail out onto. |

It seems quite clear to most that Rosberg took up his position on the track while the other cars were either still behind him or not fully alongside him. Similar to what happened with Hamilton and Massa in last seasons Suzuka race. |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iQurrE15bA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OPOn...feature=relmfu In both cases, Rosberg made one move, and in both cases the following car was either fully behind Rosberg (in the case of Hamilton) or not fully alongside (in the case of Alonso). |

It's good that we got to read the stewards' official interpretation this time, but I still don't know why we weren't afforded more views of the incident. I thought Hamilton had an onboard camera this weekend (he certainly did on Friday), so why did we not see that viewpoint? It's not a good rule though when drivers are now making one dramatic move instead of two smaller and more predictable and less reckless ones. Two drivers who I always see as fair are Button and Alonso. They generally don't push it too far. Last edited by Born Racer; 23 Apr 2012 at 16:29. |

Put it simply going across the sand is not a line either driver would take on any other lap. Cant see a good reason for them choosing to do it other than avoiding rosberg. |

The inherent danger of the one move rule I am afraid. I would genuinely rather have drivers weaving all over the place. Schumacher made an art form of the one move rule, using it to almost ram his own brother into the pitwall (Nurburgring 2001) and attempting to send Alonso onto the grass at 200mph on Hangar Straight for example, and it has filtered through to the younger drivers. I can't think of a single driver on the grid who hasn't done it before. Rosberg is just the latest to show the folly of the rule.
