Ferrari fined $20,000 for Alonso transgression

Ferrari has been fined $20,000 by the FIA for an ‘unsafe release’ after Fernando Alonso pulled into the pitlane in front of Nico Rosberg during qualifying in Barcelona.

Rosberg was forced to take avoiding action and branded the incident as ‘dangerous.’

Before the penalty was announced Alonso himself played down the incident: “Hopefully they will take into consideration that there was no accident, no touch, no performance gain.”

    20000$ Ferrari (Alonso)
    0 $ McLAren­ (Hamilton)

    It’s not fair.

    Something smells bad in­ FIA. Want they another­ “Don’tworryLewisFIAalwyswillhelpyou”­ Hamilton Championship?­

    “Don’tworryLewisFIAalwyswillhelpyou”­ Hamilton is never punished whatever he does.

    FIA have­ to create another championship only for­ “Don’tworryLewisFIAalwyswillhelpyou”­ Hamilton . . . so he could always win everything.

    And what about Australia 2009 where he got punished for telling the story so it fitted him. Just like any political person. Lewis has not been very lucky with the FIA. Alonso once called Schumacher the most punished driver. But Alonso is getting nearer and nearer.
