Yet more FIA bollocks spoiling everything, giving Massa the same penalty for ruining Hamilton's race as they did Hamilton for hurting no-one, but himself, penalising Bourdais to gift Massa a point when it was Massa who should have been penalised and letting him off going off the track to overtake Webber when if there'd been someone coming out of the pits he'd have caused a massive accident. What an obsolute joke.

Agreed, every decision by the so called stewards was laughable once again, but the bourdais decision was the worst i've seen yet.

He didn't do anything wrong, he kept to the inside line, he even put his tyres onto the grass to try to avoid massa clipping him, yet he get's penalised for it, what an absolute joke.

Totally agree!! Goodness knows how they came to the conclusion that bourdais could of avoided contact with massa whilst he was coming out of the pit lane, if anything massa should of gone wider!! Stinks it does, why give massa an extra point , if they HAD to penalize the massa/bourdais incident then they should of given bourdais a 10 sec penalty or something along those lines. I Like it how they said they would make a decision AFTER the race, hmmm do they mean AFTER they find out where hamilton comes. :protest:

The ironic thing is, it possibly worked out for the best that Massa spun out Lewis if Hamilton had wrecked his tyres anyway, and it would have been better for him if he'd retired, not Kovalainen.

Which also suggests Massa shouldn't have got away with using the pit exit to overtake Webber...

It looks like they have penalised Lewis for Kovalainen's actions, how incompetent... if not convenient.
