From the Stewards Decision Document:

The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 1 (Max Verstappen), the driver of Car 4
(Lando Norris) and team representatives and reviewed video and timing evidence.
The driver of car 1 was aware of car 55 in front and car 4 approaching from behind
and decided to accelerate at precisely the same time as car 4 decided to overtake
car 1. Unfortunately, due to lack of tyre temperature on car 1, the driver temporarily
lost control of the car causing it to ‘snap’ anti-clockwise.
The driver of car 4 stated that this was simply an unfortunate incident however it is
the driver’s responsibility to at all times maintain control of their car.
Regarding penalty, all previous breaches of this nature have resulted in a Reprimand
hence a similar penalty is imposed in this case.

How?? Just how did he only get a reprimand??
If roles reversed the bleep machine would blow up listening to Max and Horner

And also Max said Lando needed to be more respectful
Says the man meandering around on one of fastest corners on the calendar….

Because it’s Max and RedBull, any other driver gets a 5 place penalty
 
That was insane by Verstappen. Cold tires my bottom, he watched him approach in the mirrors and turned into him. What a massive cop out by the stewards.

Did previous examples of this breach include deliberately swerving to block a car approaching at high speed ? Because if they did, they need to set a better precident than a reprimand.

Amazing how you can think that.

That's some serious clutching right there. Did you at least reach the straws?
