Anyone seen "Escape to Victory"

Fact is Mclaren, once again, were correctly punished.

last time a result was changed was Brazil when Fisi won and Kimi was handed the trophy

Kubica is coming back on to the track from just having been off it and forces massa to avoid him by cutting across. Not really a similar situation.

Relinquishing a position does not reverse the application of the regulation.

Hamilton could have relinquished positions until the cows came home. The penalty is still valid.

What is questionable is the consistency with which the regulation is applied.

I think you mean that 4 to 6 seconds, Massa goes off track to maintain a position and after 10 seconds pushes the BMW off the track but Robert maintains his position.

Then Massa gets past after Robert loses momentum by being pushed off track and at 25 seconds, Robert does exactly the same as Massa did by pushing him off.

At 30 seconds, Massa rejoins after retaking the position by going off track and keeps it.

Did Massa get the position by gaining an advantage off track? Pretty obvious really.

Huh? Don't tell him what he's saying. He's saying that at the start of the video that Kubica has had an off and pushed Massa off. By your logic Kubica deserves the penalty. You can't have your cake and eat it mate. Don't tell people what they're saying. It's EXTREMELY rude.
