I must admit I am quite a Ferrari supporter, which might make it a bit harder for me to defend the fact that I think the stewards were right in giving Lewis a drive-through. He did, rightly so, let Kimi past again after jumping the chicane, but just barely. This was what gave him that great run on Kimi in the hairpin where he past him. So he did gain an advantage form cutting the chicane, though in the next corner, where he passed a car. Hamilton should just have let Raikkonen go and then tried to pass him later in the lap cause he clearly had the better car in those conditions.
If you have the video, you can later see the yellow flag kimmi (Im a BIG kimi fan - Im a McLaren fan and Kimi fan at the same time Lewis is 2nd) neglected to slow down for. He obviously did not get any penalties. Lewis went to the grass to avoid colission Kimi just stormed past w/o lifting.
