That like the one he did in Spa a couple?? of years ago was just Dangerous, I think he was lucky to get away with only a 10 second penalty.
In fact his penalty at Monza was only 5 seconds ... and then he went on to behave like a complete d**k. Even if he disagreed with the stewards decision he could have let Bottas through (since he no longer had any chance of finishing ahead of him), clung onto Bottas coat-tails and protected fourth place from the charging Vettel. It was quite clear from the radio conversation that he was perfectly well aware that was an option but he deliberately chose to be pig-head and not let Bottas pass. And while Bottas feigned several further passing attempts it was clear that he wasn't going to put himself at further risk and was content to finish behind Mad Max knowing that the points were his in any case! |

Sorry yes 5 seconds, no idea why I typed 10 lol, yes, he certainly put out his bottom lip & became the petulant teenager that he should of outgrown by now. Clearly I have no idea of his mindset, but it seems to me he thinks if he intimates people now they won't try to overtake him in the future. Always used to amaze me how many drivers seemed to jump out of the way of Senna even when racing for position

It was the kind of antics that Senna got up to that made me dislike him strongly. Always routed for the "other guy" when Senna was racing, no matter who the other guy was or who he drove for!
Schumacher was seen as a similar driver but actually I don't think he was anywhere near as bad as Senna in that respect (and I believe equal in ability)

I was going to put that but you have to be careful saying it in some circles I normally follow it up with
