Agreed. Both drivers deserved some more penalty than just a slap on the wrist, but they both needed an equal penalty since they were equally wrong. A drive thru would have been good, or a 5 spot grid penalty at the next race. nothing too severe, but enough to hurt and discourage that sort of thing. They were too close to the air guns and other mechanics.
Agreed on the other safety car too. There wasn't much debris out there at all.
Some good racing down the order though

I thought the race on sunday was good. I loved how micheal kept the field behind him with a ton of presure from jenson.
Overall a good race, good improvement by Mercedes.

Agreed! Some drama near the end with Vettel's car running pretty much without brakes too.
Monaco this weekend should be good, especially if it rains like one report said it might.
I'll have to pvr it though since I'll be at the Nurburgring for the ADAC 24 Hours race on the Nordshleife! 2x Lexus LFA's will be running along with some DTM cars of various years. Group C historic races on the Friday too! Can't wait

Here's some from the first batch from the 3 hour classics race on the Friday:
All in all, I took over 850 pictures over two days. The 24 Hours race was awesome. Such a great environment, super friendly and fun people, and a great circuit. I would even say that it's a better race weekend than LeMans (been to LeMans 3 times now).
The 24 Hours race was all about sportscars and touring cars. No prototypes (unless you count the pair of Lexus LFA's that were running). There was a huge clubman / amateur contingent in the 170+ entries. LeMans is more geared to huge budget teams running sports prototypes and GT3 hardware.
I'm still going through all the pics but I will post more from the other support races and the 24 Hours soon

Here's a shot from the one at the entrance of the museum bit. Badass twincam straight 6 with two giant turbos on it
Renault Trophy race - full of Cup Clio's, and a few Megane Trophy cars. Two Alpine A110's as well as some other classic Renault 5 Turbo's and one Turbo 2
Megane Trophy
Apline A110 in what was a big slide into the first corner on the GP circuit. It was super foggy with lots of mist and drizzle.
