Most recently in Italy, it was F1 penalizing Hamilton 25 seconds AFTER the race was over, and AFTER Hamilton rightly gave the position back after cutting the chicane. This penalty gave Massa 2 points to Hamilton's 1 in the championship. Subsequently, an appeal by McLaeren was thrown out by the FIA.
And today in Japan, they did it to him again. An incident in turn 11 resulted in Massa spinning out Hamilton, in what appeared to be 100% Massa's doing. So F1 decided to penalize Massa (rightly) with a pass-through penalty. But wait, they then say that Hamilton pushed Massa wide in turn 1 (someone pushes someone else wide in just about every F1 start. So, since a pass through penalty drops Massa back to the end of the points paying postions, the penalty to Hamlton drop him completely out of the points paying positions.
To make matters worse, they give Bordeaux a 25 second penalty AFTER the race for a no-fault incident involving Massa, thus increasing Massa's points intake to 2, with Hamilton scoring 0.
Bottom line; Either the FIA will do whatever it takes to keep a black man out of the champoinship, or they are on Ferarri's payroll. Either way, the FIA and F1 are as corrupt as can be, and make everyon's claims of Nascar favoritism look like child's play.
