did anybody else think that the penalty on The Legend (Schumacher) was a bit harsh? maybe if he had kept going, but he got a double penalty because he had to come in for a new nose cone. So he paid for his mistake (DRS - outbreaked himself), then they give him a stop and go. By the way, hadn't seen a stop and go in ages, but the reasoning was that going through the pitlane is actually faster even with the speed limiter. Either way, a great drive back through the field, but disappointed he couldn't pass Heidfeld at the end, probably out of tyres or running out of fuel.
Anyhow, my 2 cents.

side rant - Hamilton had the same issues with the DRS a couple of times, it just didn't result in a crash. Why on earth did the FIA establish the DRS well into a corner like that, with one racing line? sounds like a recipe for disaster to me. Also, this track needed a double zone.
