Maldonado didn't force Bottas off the track, or crowd him, as far as the stewards were concerned. The stewards also intimated that any accident would've been down to Bottas keeping his foot in when he'd lost the corner. It was hard to see on the TV as we only seemed to catch the tail end of it, and from that brief glimpse it did look bad by Maldonado (I remember calling him a dick at the time). It actually seems like Pastor caught Valtieri napping and took his chance giving Bottas the option of backing off or going off track. It's not the sort of thing a team-mate should do, and I wouldn't be happy if I were Ms Williams, but these guys are racing drivers, not just drivers, to paraphrase Striling Moss.

I nearly choked to death on my tea when I read that.
 
<laugh> why miggs?


also the whole Williams driver brawl is all over having such a rubbish car. The Worst Williams in history.. and this on the back of a race winning season... Why??? It must be frustrating for them both.

tbh I thought if anyone were going to give Vettel DoD it would be one of the 'Vettelites' (yes, I like to make up words based on peoples names), I was going to give it to him myself, but a fantastic, mature drive is what I expect from him every race, so I look for someone who is unexpected
 
The thing that annoyed me about Maldonado's driving was that he turned at Bottas to force him off the track, PM made the apex easily and then swerved so violently at Bottas that Maldonado himself ended up with two wheels on the grass. He's done exactly the same thing numerous times now, he collided with Grosjean and Di Resta doing it last season. He really needs to start getting penalised. He also slammed until Sutil in Canada and described it as "normal racing contact". There's no such thing in open wheel racing, if he wants to play dodgems he should go stock car racing.

Well I thought for once he worked hard for a win. Grosjean did well but it was all based on a good start. And hulk was good but not as good as last week.


How do you know I'm not a vettalite?..................

I made the assumption using the fact 4 drivers names appear in their team colours in your sig, and Vettel isn't one of them, although I'm now not sure which side of the 'Vettel-line' you're on, or are you Swiss?
