DiResta deserved a penalty today for putting Senna off the track

British media/FOM's wonder boy is slippery as soap

I'm a bit confused on this. Surely if you have something like this;

Nico Rosberg: Bahrain GP - Incident involving Fernando Alonso (Ferrari) no action taken

Then Alonso had to be investigated as well?

I just go by how FIA reports it - if both drivers are investigated it says so in the reports.

Not always.

I've noticed that there are quite often investigations announced during the race and no report on it later.

Double standards. Was last year or the year before Alonso did the same with Vettel, in Monza in the same turn? Alonso wasn't penalised. DiResta did almost the same with Bruno and wasn't penalised. So, why they penalised just Vettel? They penalised Hamilton over Kamui last year in Spa when he forced kamui out of the track in an incident identical to DiResta and Bruno today.
IMHO these penalties and investigatons are a joke.

Yes I've noticed this too (from TV) - I should say that what is reported above is when FIA release the investigation reports. First I thought they only reported on investigations that led to penalties but there's a bunch of "no action" ones.

These are the statistics for reports that they've given a diary number to.

The best I can say is that there is an inconsistency in the way non-penalty reports are published.

The FIA inconsistent? Surely you jest.

I tried to count the number of times a driver has been penalised for driving infractions.

Bruno Senna: 1
Charles Pic: 1
Fernando Alonso: 0
Heikki Kovalainen: 1
Felipe Massa: 1
Jenson Button: 1
Jean-Éric Vergne: 2
Kamui Kobayashi: 2
Kimi Raikkonen: 1
Lewis Hamilton: 0
Mark Webber: 0
Michael Schumacher: 3
Narain Karthikeyan: 2
Nico Rosberg: 0
Nico Hulkenberg: 1
Pastor Maldonado: 9
Paul di Resta: 0
Pedro de la Rosa: 0
Romain Grosjean: 1
Sebastian Vettel: 5
Sergio Perez: 2
Timo Glock: 0
Vitaly Petrov: 1

Some of these are a bit questionable, like crossing the white line out of the pits or speeding in practice sessions, but I tried to be consistent. I included fines as penalties, but not reprimands. You can PM me errors if you want.
