Nico booed on the podium. Not surprising.

Wolff is livid. Or is it an act?

Wow, Toto Wolff was damn furious.

Sky: "What do you think of today's race?"
Toto: "Unacceptable."

Was Nico's fault, but mistakes happen. Look at Alonso driving into the back of the Vettel on the last lap.

Or Hamilton in Singapore in 2011...

Sure, but when its inter-team and the championship tight as it is, its a whole other level.

And I'm pretty sure if Alonso's contact caused a puncture the stewards would have taken action.

Since I don't know that I'm asking:
Do the stewards intervene only if a team tells them to or if a driver does something that is considered punishable?

"Rosberg has yet to react to Hamilton's claims but a Mercedes spokesman confirmed Hamilton had accurately represented what the German had said".

Can't wait for Monza now :D

Seems like rules aren't implemented for everyone in the same way. Oh, wait... Seen it so many times before...

No contact, but he pushed him off track on the grass at 330km/h on the long DRS straight..
That could have ended very badly

And its Hamiltons turn now to "in die kiste fahren" as they say it in German
