lewis maybe got an advantage by the straightlining of the chicane, but that wasnt enough to warrant the penalty. tack on that he was doing some dangerous blocking after eau rouge and it adds up to a penalty.

It looks more like you went for:option d)

Option E) Justifying the penalty for the FIA to help bring them one step closer to their ultimate goal of eliminating actual racing in F1 and just handing Ferrari titles every year.

punishment was a tad much... give him like a 5 place grid penalty or something...
kimi and lewis was pushing each other, giving us one of the best battles of the season so far, and this is how the FIA managed to ruin it...

Charlie Whiting, the FIA Race Director, believes Lewis Hamilton should not be penalised for his battle with Kimi Raikkonen at the thrilling end of the Belgian Grand Prix, according to McLaren chief Ron Dennis.

Neat. That's not an incident even remotely mentioned in the penalty statement.
Thanks for playing.
How anyone can be happy about a penalty after the fact stripping a race win from anyone who just got done with that bit of driving (from both Kimi and Hamilton) is beyond me. You want to reward people who putt around the track like Massa? "Race car drivers" that never take any risks on a wheel-wheel fight?

this is what followed, anyway I think massa raced just fine in hungary taking risks and passing at the start, but you can bang wheels without breaking rules xD

This is really what I think...10 grid penalty at monza would've been a lot more appropriate...and subtle.rules were broken, agreed...

but if cutting the chicane wasn't enough to warrant the penalty, then the stewards should be specific about the dangerous blocking instead. but they did deem the drive thru due to cutting the chicane not dangerous blocking so the stewards are wrong in this case.
And in th case for dangerous blocking, what ever the fine is for the offence, whether it's 25 sec or 10 grid places in the next race, it should be applied to both Lewis and Kimi as they both did multiple-direction blocking moves on each other.

I think the penalty was justified to an extent. If Kimi had stayed in the race, it would have been completely justified.

and if Kimi had stayed in the race I might still be second in PFF1. Nigga better consult me next time he thinks about going dorifto in his F1 car

Besides both owning MR2's, we never agree about anything.It looks more like you went for:
Option E) Justifying the penalty for the FIA to help bring them one step closer to their ultimate goal of eliminating actual racing in F1 and just handing Ferrari titles every year.
Which one of us is the evil twin?
