He's already been penalised twice. A 20-30 second penalty (pitstop) would have been harsh.
It was a 5 second penalty, and it was the second offense in a row.. two races in a row.. so pretty lenient or gentle really..
He's clearly pushing the limit of the rules defensively.. but no one needs to say anything because he's already been penalised both times and lost positions. Nothing needs to be said. System working as intended IMO.
Post race they mentioned Button being similar against Perez. Not the same thing IMO, there was no contact and Perez regained the position the following corner and they continued battling fairly. Something like that was a one off for Button, where as it's been a constant theme with Mag, for the last 2 races. Not just against any one driver but against quite a few different drivers. He's been a mobile chicane and you could say that's good defending, but Alonso didn't think so, Bottas didn't think so and the stewards didn't think so. After the race, both Button and Perez talked positively of their battles. Unlike people who have battled Mag.. there's your difference.
He was punished for forcing another driver off the track in the traction zone, not for moving about in the braking zone.
Apparently the stewards had no issue with his movements under braking.
I must say I saw him move a couple of times right before the braking zone, not in it, very suddenly to the right to take up the inside line, this was not in fact blocking the other driver. Extremely dangerous if the other driver was to the right, but they weren't. I don't understand what the fuss is about re: his lines under braking. What am I missing?
Him forcing Bottas off the track deserved a penalty, I guess, as Bottas was fully alongside. Seems fair to me, maybe a little inconsistent. Where is the line? If Bottas had been 2 metres further back, it would have been fine for KM to do that (i.e. Hamilton on Rosberg in Spa). What about 1 metre? 1.5 metres? 0.5 metres?
