How on EARTH can you blame the Stewards for THAT one?
1) The rule is SIMPLE 2) It's CLEAR 3) It's self explanatory 4) The rule WAS explained in Driver's Briefing 5) Castroneves that agreed he WAS 'blocking'
Are you trying to suggest that the Stewards are WRONG in enforcing a RULE? That truly IS BIZARRE!
You can argue that the rule is stupid but you CANNOT blame the officlals to ENFORCING THE RULES! Unless you REALLY want anarchy, that is!
I can't decide, yet, if the rule IS stupid.... perhaps it needs consideration and I haven't had enough time, yet.
Personally, I think the stwards were FAR too lenient. They seem to have allowed Caostroneves off punishment for:-
1) Pushing an offical 2) Shouting at an official 3) Behaving in a manner that brings the sport into disrepute.
Personally, for his behaviour towards the flag marshals and the officials, I'd make it a three race BAN as a MINIMUM!
