Sorry for stealing the thunder for Felipe's thread, but I see absolutely no reason to feel sorry for him, and if he is beaten by Lewis, it can easily be explained that he has been beaten by a faster driver. Nothing to be ashamed of.When in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout

Shouldn't you be penalised for this sort of situation and not benefitted?
I don't really have any sympathy.

4. Driver collides with another driver on a corner. Both continue with the transgressor finishing behind the victim
5. Driver cuts chicane to avoid penalty and gives the place he gained back
1. Is Kimi into Sutil - No penalty - racing incident, Correct decision
2. Hammy into Kimi - Both taken out and Lewis penalised next race - Correct decision
3. Massa into Lewis - Lewis effectively taken out allowing Massa to score 1 point - Victim is penalised and transgressor benefits. Not the right decision
4. Massa into Seb - Victim penalised benefiting Massa by a further point - The craziest decision for many a year.
5. Lewis avoiding Kimi - Lewis penalised benefiting Massa by further points which would have put the championship out of contention.
There are a few facts we can observe in this.
1. The first 2 instances were dealt with correctly and were fair.
2. The 3rd resulted in the offender benefiting
4. the last were very contentious and the majority of people believe them to be wrong.
5. These contentious penalties have ensured that Massa is still in the championship.
Sorry for Massa? He shouldn't still be in the hunt!

F1 rules say that the driver who scores the most takes the championship, not the one who is conceived deserved by most.
