Pastor Maldonardo
What should his punishment be?

Yeah send him home ---- don't even allow him in the pit & paddock area, also refer him to the FIA to let them consider more sever
punishment.

Maldonado deliberately crashed into Lewis Hamilton on an in lap after Hamilton squeezed by him when both were on a hot lap.

End of Q2, Maldonardo on the tail end of a line of three cars all trying for a hot lap approaching the last corner. Lewis is coming up very quick
behind on a VERY hot lap setting purples everywhere, Maldonardo takes a very wide entry into the last and hamilton slips it up the inside (he was
possibly held up by the three infront) and forces Maldonardo wide(r). After the finish line (Q2 ended about 2 seconds before the first of them crossed
the line) they go round the first corner and Maldonardo comes charging up behind Lewis (who started to move right but saw Maldonardo and jigged left
again) then up beside Lewis, who was still moving slightly left. Then Maldonardo took a hefty move to the left contacting with Lewis, demolishing his
front wing, badly damaging his offside side pod and giving considerable sideways loads into the offside front and rear suspension.

This explanation is a load of bo11ocks to anyone that saw it, how was Lewis at fault?????????
When asked by AUTOSPORT whether the second move had been deliberate retaliation, the Williams driver said: "No. It was a big moment.
"I tried to overtake him because he slowed down quite a lot. It's like a straight, but there's a turn and maybe at that moment he
was turning and I was a bit straight. It's difficult to say.
"There was not any reason for both drivers to do anything after the chequered flag. It's clear that there was a mistake on both sides.
Maldonado added that he had not spoken to Hamilton about either incident and that he was comfortable with what had happened initially at the chicane
as there was "no contact".
Hamilton was given a reprimand but receives no penalty. The stewards said both drivers were guilty of "causing a collision" and were
punished under article 16.1 of the regulations.

Not seen the incident but there seems to be a fair few comments like this one online
After listening to the BBC I though it was totally Maldonado fault and he was being totally dangerous......
After watching the event I have a totally different perspective.
Hamilton is ahead of Maldonado and weaving at him as they exchange words. After scaring Maldonado and forcing him to break Maldonado does the same
to Hamilton but Hamilton doesn't break and they collide!
Yes punish Maldonado but ... Hamilton too deserves to be punished for the incident .

That sounds like the first incident rather than the second...
Looked like Hamilton was driving well over to the left of the track and cruising, then was swiped deliberately.
Anyway more importantly Jensen is way down in 13th  Hopefully the weather will be changeable tomorrow and we will see a repeat of Canada.

Lewis couldn't have gone any further left to avoid Maldonardo without putting himself on the grass - what utter boll*cks, but absolutely typical
of the blinkered & biased stewards!
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

No idea what session you were watching but must have been different to the one I saw.
Bearing in mind this is after the session has ended so no need for any close racing or braking, PM moves out from behind LH (PM even weaving slightly
as it was wet off line, so obviously on a mission) proceeds passed LH then holds a straight line where the track curves forcing LH in to the side of
him.
I can understand that PM may have been annoyed at LH for passing him on the last bend, but he was on a crap lap anyway, and LH was about to set pole
(that would be come 2nd). EIther way there is no excuse for retaliation on track so 100% PM fault and should not be racing tomorrow IMO.
I can only assume LH reprimand is for the overtake on PM (could be considered aggresive) but as PM said, there was no contact, so must have been a
clean move.

Not sure how anyone can comment on something they've not seen!
The main thing is it should be an epic race with the top 3 next to eachother on the grid 
Anyone else think DohResta had a bit of a monk on in the post qually interview!
