Who? What Points Action Lap
Race
Senna, Bruno (Renault) Drive through penalty 5 pts On Lap 10, Schumacher made an attack up the inside which led to contact.

The stewards, reviewing the tape decided the Senna was to blame for one of the most neutral collisions of the season. Schumacher had a puncture which ruined his race and Senna had a damaged front wing.

The make things even, Senna received a drive through penalty.

Virgin Racing General Pit stop blunderWheel fall off 15 pts After the pit stop of Glock, he lost a wheel exiting the pits.
