@serbian4ever : The comparisons of Hamilton blocking off Rosberg to this incident are, well, far fetched, to say the least. It's very convenient to forget that all the above screenshots were from accelleration out of a corner, where the car ahead, usually the faster one as well, can claim the racing line.
In the case from Spain, both were off the racing line. Rosberg moved over, and since Hamilton was partly aside at one point, he should have left space. The problem here is that the speed difference was so big, and unexpected, that Rosberg's mind was probably outpaced by Hamilton's Mercedes. I therefore believe that, considering both are human, no penalties apply, but for me, it's clear who did contribute most to this coming together.

Well, I think Ferrari at least wanted to make sure to get ahead of RIC by pitting him earlier. Waiting until the same lap, or even later than RIC could have seen him get stuck behind the RBR and finish one place further down
