The ask Crofty vote on the Sky F1 show did a poll of what the fans though about the accident

34% said it was Perez fault
33% said it was Massa fault
33% said it was a racing incident.

They also pointed out that it could go on because the stewards where supposed to of spoken to the drivers however the stewards left the track 10 minutes before Perez got back to the circuit.

So it was clearly Perez's fault.

Verrry clearly!!

I think rob smedley is full of $#@! thinking that perez should have retired before the crash.

Was his comment not down to misinterpreting a FI radio message he heard as the car had a terminal brake failure when it wasnt?

Was it? I don't remember the transmission. It just seemed odd to me cuz he might as well have been saying that rosberg should have just retired the car too. I know he was saying they had bottas slow down cuz he had an issue. That's their own fault for lost points (unless he had to slow down to save the engine to avoid penalties)

Not sure, but thought I read that was the case. I was in Cape Verde last week so had to watch it on RTL which is a worse version of ITV when it comes to adverts so didnt see Sky's analysis/interviews post race. But from the collision I wouldnt say it was caused by brake failure, it seemed to be more to do with Perez changing line/closing the door too late.

Yeah I'd agree that it was because of the line change more than any brake issue that he'd been handling pretty well for the last laps. That's not to say I think it was 100% his fault

Johnny Herbert said it was a racing incident at the start of the show.

Have we adequately flogged this Perez/Massa fault issue to within an inch of its life or is there still possibly more that can be added here?

It was vettles fault. Perez / Massa were so shocked to see a RedBull ahead of them they both lost concentration and crashed.

Nah I blame lewis. "maybe it's because I'm black, as ali g would say" I still can't believe people cried about that, that was some funny $#@!

I know what you mean, it was clearly 34% Perez's fault, 33% Massa's fault and 33% bad luck

Oh, much MUCH more. Look at the poll above!

I just watched Alan Carr's Chatty Man, if Nicoles latest song is anything to go by, Lewis will be lucky if the sound of the new F1 engines drowns out the sound of her singing.

And still it's probably better than Psy and Snoop Dog's collaboration.

Hey that was the best song I've ever heard!

I can't hear any more songs anymore but that's besides the point.

[racechick]

The stewards have reopened the Massa/Perez case as Perez was in hospital after the event and not given a hearing.

so they just listened to one side if the story and made a decision?

[What's Burning?]

It's embarrassing, but not surprising.
