He did nothing wrong, if he's in that situation again he will do the same thing.

Very true.

So I guess Hamilton's getting a 5 place grid penalty in Spa because of this?

Guess that Maldonado is keeping his crashing skills sharp for when the season resumes in a few weeks.

Pastor Maldonado's Caracas show run was cut short after he damaged his Williams while spinning on the streets.

Williams is in Venezuela during the mid-season break, and the highlight of the trip was expected to be a 12-lap demonstration run around Los Proceres - the capital city's national monument - but, despite a practice run the previous evening, a spin on only his second lap saw him damage the Williams and forced the team to cease running.
Caterham reserve driver Rodolfo González was able to give the public something to shout about as he managed an eight-lap GP2 demo before the storm.


The accident came on the final day of the Williams trip to Venezuela, with Maldonado heavily backed by the Government-owned oil company PDVSA.

This takes the cake! I think I've seen it all now with this bloke.

I'm just saying...

[What's Burning?]

What you hear in Spanish... (besides hearing a little girl laugh hysterically) the guy speaking says, how rare... how rare that he crashed.

priceless.

This is just

give this guy a freakin medal

[vlad]

Hahahaha, what a plonker!!!

Now that I see the video I conclude it was a deliberate spin, done out of anger. He wanted to push the curb out of the way. He saw it up ahead and decided to hit it with his rear wheel. For shame! He should be handed a drive through at the next public demonstration!

[darwin dali]

Is this guy for real?

[Hammer278]

The maniac strikes again. I can imagine him wearing a tight pink leotard and dancing around like a pony singing "Oops I did it again" in that Venezualan accent. Pr*ck.

The most consistent driver in F1.
