Maldonado should be banned from the race for that move. Truly stupid.

Wow, Maldonado, you've just changed my whole opinion of you.

You'd been doing a pretty good job for a rookie, but a deliberate swipe at Hamilton is UNACCEPTABLE.

Hamilton was on his quick lap and had the racing line. Maldonado *deliberately* steered into and deliberately damaged another car. No question, that's a DQ in my mind.

Turned *into* him? Hamilton was on the inside!

When did Hamilton turn into Maldonado? Earlier today, Hamilton had the inside and was on a hot lap. On the other hand, deliberately swiping someone when the chequered flag has already been shown is a sign of total petulance and a complete disregard for safety.

Incidents in the heat of competition are one thing, but I've NEVER seen anything like that before.

Please don't. There can be no question that Hamilton has done absolutely nothing wrong. Maldonado was trying to back off from the pack and get a clean lap in which obstructed Lewis's lap. Lewis went for an overtake and made it past, with Pastor turning in to him on the apex despite Hamilton already being ahead.

Then on the run down to Eau Rouge Maldonado so clearly ran across the bows of the McLaren miles off line. Totally deliberate.
