Also Fisico punished

[Mauri A]

Fisichella will start 13th. He got a penalty blocking Yamamoto in Q1.

Not surprised, just surprised how long it took then to decide, I guess the stewards have been a little busy with a certain other matter ;)

Did no-one else see he had just the same problem in front of him with that Toro Rosso (Liuzzi?) - he had to slow down and compromise starting his fast lap just as much as Yamamoto was compromised?!

I just watched quals on teh tape amd my answer is NO!! he definitely slowed down and blocked poor Yama, although it would not have made any difference to Yama's satr possie. I would not be surprised if Yama starts from the pit lane, in fact.

What about poor old DC? By rights he should have been in the 3rd qualifying session. Ok, chances are he wouldn't have improved much from P10, but we'll never know. Hey ho.

A good decision to penalise Fisichella for holding up Yamamoto.

[Schnell]

...And so he should be again after punting Ant' out the race!

Hmm, not really sure, that may have just been a racing incident.

[VkmSpouge]

I think that was a racing incident, a shame for Davidson.

[Mikeall]

It was a racing incident but it was totally unneccesary and surely avoidable. Both looked equally guilty but they just seemed to crash into each other for no real reason.
