Following the completion of yesterdays race Jarno Trulli was penalised for overtaking Lewis Hamilton under the safety car, he had 25 seconds added to his time which dropped him back to 12th and lifted Hamilton on to the podium. Sebastien Vettel was handed a $50,000 fine and a 10 position grid penalty for next weeks Malaysian GP for causing the accident that took both Kubica and himself out of the race with only a handful of laps remaining.
Update: The incident has been reinvestigated by the stewards, they found that Hamilton and Vodafone McLaren Mercedes “acted in a manner prejudicial to the conduct of the event by providing evidence deliberately misleading to the Stewards”, and as a result Hamilton has been excluded from the results, and Trulli’s 25s penalty has been reversed. McLeran won’t be appealing the findings.
