    I, as many others saw the main fault with Nico, he was the following car and should have kept clear, but in fairness, the ego-driven prawn in the lead car did chop across rather severly, and the more I see it the more the blame moves away from Rosberg.

    At least the little cheat Rosberg has finally had the decency to admit his mistake and apologize to Hamilton and the team. It's about time really that he did that - it should have happened right after the race, but on reflection he now knows what he did was wrong. We all know cheating is wrong, of course, but it's obviously something Nico has only just learned. Hopefully we'll have no repeat of Belgium and Monaco now. It's a shame he has only gotten away with a slap on the wrist but such is life I guess. Looking forward to this weekend's race now. If Hamilton could win and Rosberg doesn't cheat in the process it would at least be some vindication of two weeks ago.

    At last the cheat has the decency to say all the right things the PR team told him to say.

    I've been developing the same view after also viewing the incident more times. Lewis knew he was there all along. I think Lewis was trying to make a point / stamp his authority and came off second best.

    To all the people bleating about cheating, Nico didn't cheat, he was involved in a minor bump with another driver that caused a puncture. It's not like he stole Lewis's tyre for crying out loud.

    Knock, knock.
    Who's there?
    The tax man!
    The tax man who?
    Just open up you tax cheating hypocrite.

    Lewis was racing hard. Racing hard always involves a statement. Nico was the one that swerved towards Lewis tire. Lewis had the racing line in the end of the day and was entitled to take it.

    Anyway, surprise surprise, Lewis has electrical problems in FP2. Just when things go well they get worse and no issue for Nico once again.
