Definitely Maldonado's fault!

It took 20 replies to finally find the culprit.

As said if it was anyone's fault it would have to be Kimi. I doubt Kvyat could even see where Kimi was through Seb's car.

Kyvat was least at fault
Vettel was either going to hit Kyvat or kimi
Kimi (as happens often) lost control and thus if anyone it's his fault

But Def a racing incident

The gap on Vettel's inside was huge. No problem with Kvyat for going for that. When he did come up the inside, Vettel sort of 'jumped' and applied a hell of a lot of left-lock, which wasn't needed and came into contact with Kimi. I think there was room for all 3, Vettel just needed to not get spooked..

He didn't help matters when he came back onto the track after that either, causing Nasr to swerve right into Hamilton to avoid him.

Vettel's having a go at Kyvat was a bit of a red herring anyway, he knows Kyvat was essentially blameless and had to have a go at someone as Marchionne was watching!

It was a simple racing incident as you mention though.

Sums up how I feel about it. Kvyat saw a fair gap and went for it, he wasn't in the wrong and from what I've read since Vettel has come out and said it was a racing incident after seeing it from different views so case closed on this one.

Surprised Vettel got this worked up about it publically before seeing all the evidence, probably flustered due to taking out his team mate.
