    Kobayashi will get the same treatment.
    You might be right, but then all collisions are avoidable, thing is he lost the back in the wet...I'd say these things happen especially in the wet.

    Not all are avoidable, in racing terms. On this one Kobayashi was on the dry race line, or at least going on to it. It doesn't matter now, Kobayashi got the same treatment for a different incident.

    Brilliant move from Alonso to go back ahead of Hamilton. It was a brilliant move from Hamilton to go ahead a while ago, in fairness.

    Kobayashi has had an engine failure by the looks of it.

    BBC team didn't think he'd be punished and thought it was harsh, as soon as I heard Mansell was there I knew it would be a penalty, he hates Schumacher.

    Coulthard said it was Schumacher's fault, I think Brundle agrees but does consider it harsh. Mansel only makes up one part of the stewards and Kobayashi received the same punishment.

    Buemi's rear tyre has gone somewhere.

    A pit fuck up from Red Bull, Alonso and Hamilton are ahead of Vettel now. Webber is in fourth too.

    McClaren didn't put in Button's front tyre properly.

    Going from what we've seen before today, Hamilton should get a penalty.
