Brazilian promoted to seventh in Japanese GP as Frenchman gets 25-second penalty.

Wow, Sebastian did absolutely nothing wrong. FIA's credibility is now in the negative figures, they will clearly do anything to make up for the Red team's many, many mistakes.

Bravo, let’s see, Massa jumps the curve on lap 1 ending Hamilton’s competitive race, lap 6 Massa runs into Bourdais at turn one, lap 2 Massa dangerously passes Webber on the inside using the pit exit. Yeah, F-1, the epitome of corruption!

If they don't do something to standardize the rulings and penalties they will be the ones ruining this venue, not costs.
Close competition for the points championship at the cost of credibility - I don't think so!

There were plenty of laps left in the race to assess a penalty...but they waited for the race outcome to determine what penalty would most benefit Massa's title chase. IMHO the FIA's pathetic Ferrari favoritism has poisoned this sport.

Another showing of why the FIA = Ferrari Interest Authority

Bourdais saw Massa coming, he gave him a lot of room but Massa decided to go all the way across the track instead of staying on the outside and caused that accident.

Ir looks like mclaren is still beanibf penelized for what happened last year. It is pretty bad when ferreri has to bribe there way to keep in contention for the championship

Let me know how the season turns out as I will not be watching any more of this pathetic series.

this penalty BS is so old like Max and Bernie. They need to fix this crap,just because they had a racing incident doesn't mean there has to be a penatly.Massa cut bourdais off!!

The driver exiting the pit is required to yield to faster cars. That is why drivers exiting the pits are directed by the white lines, to the inside of the track on pit out and this applies into the first turn. This has always been the rule. Bourdais pressed the issue and spun Massa because they were racing for position. Had Bourdais not spun Massa he might have gotten away with it. Those are the rules and Bernie and Max have nothing to do with the FIA decision.

That's why I guess it's called "F1" aka "F'd 1"
