Why not?

In the aftermath of Suzuka 1989 Ron Dennis did a press conference where he reviewed the criteria of the case the FIA prepared against Senna, which included the 'rules' that he had violated. During that conference Dennis read out one specific rule about rejoining the circuit from the point at which a car had left, which meant going against the flow of traffic, and showed videos of other cars doing the same as what Senna had done.

Prost and Balestre influenced the stewards that day, the latter DSQ'ing Senna.

You can be unhappy Toni. You cannot be surprised that this is happening though. Questionable decisions and part of the fabric of this and every other sport.

i'd give it a 2.

i barely watch f1 in this awful era and races like this prove me right not to watch this joke of a racing series anymore.

The race itself was a 5. But I have given it 2 because of the penalty. (I was not upset at the penalty because I am a fan of Vettel.... I am not, far from it in fact.... nor Hamilton for that matter. I am voting that way because I am pissed off with this over sanitising of our favourite sport. Whatever came of shit happens)

4. I wish Vettel had made the corner. It would have been a better race to see them go wheel to wheel for a change.
