London, Nov.4 (ANI): Australian and Red Bull racer Mark Webber has claimed that Grand Prix stewards made the wrong decision over Lewis Hamilton's latest clash with Felipe Massa in India.
Brazilian Massa was slapped with a drive-through penalty for provoking the controversial smash on lap 24 of the New Delhi race - the sixth time the duo have collided.
"If someone's had an -absolute howler, then fine, give them a penalty but sometimes it might be better just to say it was one of those things - what we call in F1 'a racing incident' - and let it go," The Mirror quoted Webber, as saying.
He added "You could argue all day about the rights and wrongs of the crash but it was 50-50 in my opinion.
He added: "It was the age-old thing: Lewis went for it, Felipe was still going to commit to the corner, then Lewis tried to back off and couldn't."
"F1 is getting into a bit of a road-car culture. The attitude seems to be that someone must be to blame when there is an incident," Webber said. (ANI)
