He was a bit slow but far from conclusive enough to call it a brake test and disqualify him whereas Vettels move was clear as day, aggressive and illegal driving. 

His speed decreased from 90kph to 50kph at the exit of the corner. That's break testing.

Where's it shown that? Not accelerating isn't braking and you can slow without accelerating through a corner. Again, he doesn't have to accelerate at that point. Otherwise, drivers need to be penalised for slowing down the field before restarts behind the safety cars..........

It's also speeding up and slowing down behind the safety car to heat up the tyres and the brakes. Not conclusive. 

Raikkonen and Perez are back from the dead but a lap down still.

Safety car restart underway.

Daft question, can't they just bring in the safety car and continue under virtual so they warm the tires up quicker?

I think it's not in the rules. An oversight just because the VSC is still relatively new. I expect it'll be in for next season. Tyre temperatures behind the safety car haven't been an issue for a long time as they've worked on it a lot. Part of the reason for Senna's fatal crash was that the earliest safety cars were too slow for them to keep tyre temperatures high enough when they were following it.

10 second penalty for Vettel. Doesn't even acknowledge it the fucking bellend. He truly is a shithouse.

Testing another driver's brakes is not brake testing, but touching wheels at 40 kph is "dangerous driving". You truly are a shit poster.

Try and hide your bias mate. Are you trying to deny that Vettel deliberately crashing into another driver is dangerous?

At 40 kph, wheel-to-wheel. No. What was suppossed to happen?

Fucking hell. He was supposed to stay behind Hamilton because it was a safety car restart or do the rules not apply to Vettel?

Was it not you who posted on the previous page that both drivers should be disqualified and now because people disagree over Hamilton's part in it you're back tracking and saying that Vettel did nothing wrong?

Can't believe I'm actually having a debate about whether Vettel should have been penalised for that. Most obvious penalty I can remember seeing in F1.

Don't ditch the question. What was suppossed to happen? Demonstrate how this is dangerous driving or it wasn't.

It was dangerous driving because he deliberately hit another car. Schumacher was disqualified from an entire championship in 1997 for doing that.

You're absolutely embarrassing yourself trying to defend Vettel here. What's worse is that you've already admitted he should be disqualified now you're back tracking and making out that I'm an idiot for not "proving it".

How about this one, why did you state that Vettel should have been disqualified if it wasn't dangerous driving?

I'm not defending Vettel here, just stating that it wasn't dangerous, because it wasn't.

Because it's violent conduct.

Christ so you're arguing about what we should call it? xD

Either way, I don't think the penalty was enough. Could easily have been disqualified for it.

Bottas passes Stroll literally about 100m off the line xD.

Still a very impressive podium for him. Craziest race I've seen in a long time. Ricciardo, Stroll, Magnussen, Alonso the only guys with incident free races.
