Autosport: The official paperwork regarding the investigation has yet to reach the press room, but there are suggestions that it's the fact that Rosberg reversed towards the circuit after his mistake that is the main issue, rather than whether the incident was deliberate.

Sorry miss thought on that one as he was aiming to make that his pole lap etc... They say it's official now, Mercedes have been called to the stewards.
Honestly, I hope he does get a punishment. I don't think the mistake was deliberate however reversing up the road after is just pathetic really and definitely in my opinion a calculated decision once he knew that he couldn't improve his time.
Andrew Benson ‏@andrewbensonf1 8m . HAM cont'd "I quite like the way Senna dealt with it, so I’m going to take a page out of his book.” Unless you want to be DSQ from the whole season, you wont Lewis.
Is this remark for me? If so then an emphatic no. It's because cheats should never prosper (though I am not naive enough to think that they never do!)
I like to see people win on track not in some stewards office so I don't want him penalized. I think he deserves a warning though because reversing out to the track while people were on hot laps was indeed stupid and saying he didn't know where lewis was irrelevant as he would have known other cars were behind on hot laps and would be coming up on him quickly.... He admitted that he reversed back to the track that's when he noticed lewis coming up.
Further: BBC Radio 5 live pit lane reporter Jennie Gow asks Lewis Hamilton: "Are you even more like Senna and Prost now? Hamilton replies: "Essentially." Will you have to sit down and sort it out? Hamilton says: "I don't know if Senna and Prost sat down and talked it out. I quite like the way Senna dealt with it, so I'm going to take a page out of his book."
Actually having now heard the interview, he was referring to the way that Senna and Prost didn't get on and didn't feel the need to, rather than anything Crashtor-esque.
