Grosjean gets one-race ban | Sky Sports

Romain Grosjean has been banned for one race by Belgian GP stewards for triggering the massive first-corner collision in Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix.

The Frenchman will sit out next weekend's Italian GP at Monza after stewards at Spa ruled that he had been at fault for causing the spectacular pile-up which took out four drivers at the first corner on the spot.

Replays of the incident showed that the Lotus driver, who had started from eighth on the grid, squeezed Lewis Hamilton onto the grass as the McLaren driver attempted to go down the inside of him, causing the Briton to lose control of his car and plough into the back of the Lotus.

This sent Grosjean onto a collision course with the Sauber of Sergio Perez, who he vaulted over the back of, and across the nose of Fernando Alonso's Ferrari, putting all three drivers out on the spot along with Hamilton and damaging the other Sauber of Kamui Kobayashi.

cannot beleive they ban him. sure he needs a penalty it was his fault but i doubt it was intentional. where as skelator head likes to play bumper cars on purpose and the stewards barly bat an eylid.
