What a way to ruin a fantastic and memorable end to a grand prix ...

I can't be bothered to go looking on YouTube, but I am convinced I remember MS doing the same thing a million times back in the day (regarding letting another drive back past only to fall back into their slipstream), and he was never penalised ... it's not like Hamilton let Kimi's nose go ahead, he let Kimi go in front but tucked up behind his exhaust rather then falling back 2 seconds which would have been ridiculous since they were side by side in the corner anyway (with Hamilton on the racing line, too).

Since Hamilton gained no advantage in the end, it's absolutely bizarre decision anyway.
