    They can't penalize Perez after they decided not to touch Hamilton a day before

    That is an od way to give your opinion on the matter. That other torpedo (I assume you mean Hamilton) happend in a different race. It also did not destroy the race of one of our drivers. No I did not forget en yes I believe he also deserved a penalty for that. My point was that I feel bad for the way Carlos his race went. He lost positions from the boneheaded move from Perez who got no penalty and then at the end of the race loses another position to that same Perez through a 5 second penalty. I know some of you guys seem to hate Carlos more than Hamilton but he's still driving for our team and we as a team lost points thanks to the move Perez did at the start of the race.

    TBF Carlos got a penalty due to his own bonehead divebomb that took out another car. Can't blame it all on Perez.

    This is also true and I even think the penalty he got was deserved. Even if I can understand his frustration. My issue is with the way penalties get awarded. The move Perez made could have ended in a disaster and it not getting penalized just blows my mind.

    * Interfering in race results and then getting cleared by your own investigation is kind of corrupt don't ya think?

    I really doubt the Miami SC delta was 11 seconds. That delta could only happen on a circuit like the Vietnam one where the pit cut two corners or Zandvoort where the pits is shorter than an Olympics running track. If that was the case, one-stoppers wouldn't be a thing around there. Either way, I strongly suspect that Firstappen would've been ahead after the pitstop no matter what.
    Red flag is not something you invoke like that.

That's not a grave procedural issue? What are you even talking about?
    Please show me the rules that dictate this.
