    Monza is in Italy, hence the punishment.

    And surely there was a case for a punishment for unsafe release by Ferrari

    I still dont see why di Resta didnt get a penalty for hitting Senna and Senna for illegally overtaking Rosberg. It's like they dont give 2 ****s about the mid field.

    I was half hoping for Vettel to claim in a interview that F1 is no longer a sport. The circle could then be complete.

    Unsafe release in my book is Kovalainen/Karthikeyan from Spa, if the two drivers go out side by side I think it's safe as long as there's room in the pit lane to accomodate them.

    It was similar to Hamilton and Massa in T1 L1 in their positions, but Senna went off track and came back on ahead and didnt give the place up.

    How strange. <scratch> how many laps did it take for Rosberg to overtake him again?

    He overtook him in the pits or something. I dont think he overtook him on track.

    Monza has 2 lanes in the pits which is better I think. though obviously not all venues can do this

    Hamilton bossed this race well done!!!

    Comiserations Vettel and Button, Perez did awesome, will be great to see him in a better car.

    Vettels move on Alonso was a bit harsh, but it's F1.

    Hold on a sec, what if Raikkonen won the title, without winning a race? Hmmm.

    Another thing, I like the way some drivers *Di Resta, got away with running people off the track, and others are punished.
    Especially when some drivers leave a car's length and still get stick.

    *Special mention to MSC, out-qualifying and racing his over-rated team mate once again.

    I think Vettel deserved a penalty, but the stewards need to be consistent and punish everyone who pushes others off the track. Always congrats to Pastor for not hitting anything!

    I think Pastor did a really good race today, he might not have got points but he was only 0.5 off them. If he drives like that for the rest of the season, he'll comfortably beat his team mate and maybe get a few more podiums.

    Did anyone see what happened to him at the start? He ended up behind Glock which is confusing.

    Read that there were monkey noises being made and racist language when Lewis was on the poduim by a sizeable amount of the crowd.

    Well done Italy <ok>

    If that's the case, they should fine the venue heavily... Give them an incentive to deal with it in future.

    Presumably there will be no proof, let alone any chance of an investigation.
