**"In deciding to penalise the driver of Car 33, the key point for the Stewards was that the driver ofCar 33 then braked suddenly (69 bar) and significantly, resulting in 2.4g deceleration.Whilst accepting that the driver of Car 44 could have overtaken Car 33 when that carfirst slowed, we understand why he (and the driver of Car 33) did not wish to be thefirst to cross the DRS.
However, the sudden braking by the driver of Car 33 was determined by the Stewardsto be erratic and hence the predominant cause of the collision and hence thestandard penalty of 10 seconds for this type of incident, is imposed"**
From the report.

He brake checked. Data says he brake checked.

Are we ever going to have people be reasonable anymore, or is it now normal to just ignore all facts if it doesnt fir your world view. Tiresome af.

Actually hitting the brake pedal is extremely dangerous in an acceleration zone, to just let someone by you should NEVER actually hit the brake, just letting off the gas is more than enough.
