So what do the rules say about crashing into others on purpose during a temper tantrum?

That's a race ban for me.
Hamilton might have braked a bit too harsh, would give him a warning or at least make sure that rues are clear but Vettel ?

Woah, no matter who is right or wrong, Vettel should be disqualified. :shock:

Two wrongs don't make a right.

Both penalized. Actually, id say both should get black flags and DQ'd.

Booooring. Two drive through right after the restart would be fun.

Hamilton did not brake, he just did not accelerate. Total BS from Vettel. If they do not disqualify him I am not going to watch F1 again, seriously. It will be total Ferrari bias. What are we watching here??

Nobody crashed into the back of VET so clearly HAM didn't do anything wrong there, VET %100 to blame, HE should be DQ'd for this race and banned for the next.

Backing up the grid is legal as long as you are within 10 car lengths of the safety car.

Hamilton did not brake tested Vettel, he just didnt accelerated from corner, DQ for Vettel is maybe too much but that incident must be a penalty.

Vettel what a t00l. He hit Hamilton from behind, and then yanked the wheel right towards him from the side and hit again. But of course he won't be penalized (or penalized as much as he should be).

Hamilton was just making sure there was enough of a gap with the Sc before the restart. And it didn't look to me as if he was braking at the corner exit. He probably did not accelerate early to leave a gap with the SC. Vettel was probably expecting him to accelerate and misjudged it. But then to go on and hit him on purpose ? Wow...
