Red Bull, well do I need to say?
Sauber for being utterly anonymous until their double retirement.
Mags, because that was just a silly incident.

Magnussen for ruining Kimi's race and his own. Red Bull for Ricciardo's pitstop incident. Sauber for their performance, the lack of it.

Mclaren and Williams for their stupid tyre choices in qualifying and for not delivering a pace that was expected from them in the race.

Lotus, well, these are the farce of the year already.

I didn't vote for RB because, despite the pit error, their car is reliable and already quite quick

Why Maldonado ? The Marussia ran into him, he couldn't do anything about that.

Red Bull and Sauber. Obvious reasons.

Lot of dodgy votes today. Trolls will be identified and publicly shamed for messing with the polls. We do these polls as a sort of historical record to see how this forum judged races. Voting Riccardo, Hamilton and Hulk as farces isn't acceptable. All we're asking is for grown up votes.

Watch the incident again. I commented on this in the race thread. Maldonado swept from the very outside to the very inside, essentially trying to take a normal racing line when there were many cars around him. If he'd been more circumspect, taken a slightly wider line into T4 then the Marussia wouldn't have hit him. Simple as that. But this is Maldonado we're talking about. Circumspect doesn't exist in his vocabulary.

To be fair, Bianchi had a puncture. You don't tend to avoid out of control cars.

The stewards for being ridiculous with the penalty points. Bottas gets two for doing nothing, Magnussen gets two for very small contact while Bianchi gets two for being hit by Vergne, picking up a puncture and then being unable to stop.

Picture here illustrates what I mean: http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/3085 ... ty-points/

But watch again. Maldonado's line into T4 invited potential danger and that's entirely what he got.

FIA for throwing out penalties by the bucket. I hate that. Next we'll have signs warning drivers to "keep a safe distance at all times"

Weren't Red Bull doing that with Ricciardo?

Red Bull for failing to follow their own pit procedures and ruining Ricciardo's race and severely handicapping him for the next one.
