Did not happen until well after the race, he was docked 25 secs. for his off at the chicane. Said that even though he allowed Kimi to repass him, it put him on Kimi's tail and made it easier to pass him than had he not shortcutted the chicane.

I disagree, 3 of us watched the race yesterday and we all agreed that Lewis did not let Kimi by properly as he should have. Instead he let Kimi nose slightly ahead, and immediately attacked. He deserved the penalty.

My god those last couple of laps were great though!
