I'm just throwing it out there for the folks calling for rosberg to be banned and/or fired. Dude made the same mistake we've seen dozens of times from other drivers better and worse over the years.
I agree that rosberg deserves punishment for his offense now that he admitted he chose not to avoid the accident. However, at the time of the incident, I saw it as a racing incident. He misjudged the placement of his nose by a foot which is easy to do in racing. Hamilton/massa singapore incident seemed a lot more 'avoidable' or blatant relative to rosberg/hamilton incident yesterday (until it rosberg's 'confession' came to light) so I think it's understandable to see why the stewards chose to consider it a race incident at the time of the incident.

I'm just gonna leave this here
He f**ked up and got a drive through.
What did Rosberg get? Free 18 points over his WDC contender.
I don't see how that video helps anyone's case in anyway.

Not bad for a #2 driver
