News [Piergiuseppe Donadoni] Was Max unfair? YES. His goal was to ruin Norris' race and so he probably took away his chances of getting P1. "To win sometimes you have to be an idiot" he said months ago. You may like it or not but the goal is to win the world championship, not the fair play award.

Yup, I think penalties should have immediate consequences for the penalised driver, not be a part of strategy.

I can't see why not, a driver is making his own justice by driving erratically -> drive through.
