100%. Epitome of racing incident. Perez could barely keep it on the track. That was bs.

Fully deserved imo

5sec definitely seems excessive.

Perez was already nursing a problem, if anyone was driving dangerously it was him.

Hmm, I dunno… I can see it being ruled a racing incident because the action wasn’t that bad. But he did understeer into an opponent, damaging his car, and ruining his race.

It seems like they judged the outcome more so than the action itself.

Agreed - WTF was that about - nothing happened to any of the cars, it was racing.
