Why? Magnussen deserved what he got, Alonso was alongside and Magnussen shoved him off the road. It was a dangerous move. That said, I was suprised Alonso only got a 5 second penalty for the start. At the time I thought that was because they were going to throw the book at the team and hand them a significant fine but they didnt take any further action post race as it wasnt really anything under the driver's control.
Personally I found the decision to give Mags a post race penalty more frustrating than the decision not to penalise Rosberg.
