What? Hamilton wasn't even defending in that incident. He was just moving to the racing line, and Kobayasha had crept up in there.

There are loads of inconsistencies in all of these events. What happened to the rule about forcing another driver off the track? (Both in Vettel and Hamilton's case in Monza) What happened to the 1 move rule including the correction for the racing line?

Also, the poeple claiming that the BBC is Brit biased or pro-Hamilton is rediculous as well. They more often than naught call a spade a spade. They certainly have called Hamilton out plenty of times.

IMO, either this guy was not in the majority of the stewards' decisions, or something fishy was going on. I don't think they're so incompetent as to completely miss a major incident like that, especially as it occurred so early in the grand prix.

They are also allowed to make post-race penalties, if they think it is warranted.
Basically, F1 is political.
