when you lookat the replays, it was clear that maldonado deliberately steered his car into hulkenberg to intentionally shove him off the track, even worse, in doing so he made contact. the onboards are very telling.
A similar argument could be made for kimi's move on Grosjean however, but the difference is that kimi didn't necessarily steer into grosjean and they were side by side and grosjea nhad the opportunity to concede

In Hulkenberg's case, he was on the racing line and ahead when Maldonado came charging in ( fair enough) but then knowing that he wasn't going to make the pass, decided to steer into nicoH.

I went out not long after the race and have only seen it live. What I posted was in my belief that he made an error. If that was the case I would stick by my view.

However if you have watched the replay and seen if again and you say thats the case I accept it. In that case he deserved his peanlty and more besides as he has done nasty thing before. i.e Perez in Monaco and Hamilton last year in Spa, as well as Hamilton at Valencia.

If that is the case he can't have an arguement with a more stern penalty.

I will have to watch it again.
