Found the race a tad dull really. Apart from Webber and Hamilton going at each other towards the end and the Schumi crash with Petrov, there wasn't much else to note; not much drama at all :(

15 car pile up in the indy car race. Really serious, Cars upside down, on fire. Air ambulance. On sky sports now

I think that's probably the worst motorsport crash I've ever seen.

I'd be amazed if everyone's OK.

Horrific :(

It's the first Indian Gp on Sunday, it starts at the unusual time of 9.30 am. The track looks pretty good. A fast 1st section , and a really twisty second section.

Hamilton in trouble again

McLaren's Lewis Hamilton has been handed a three-place grid penalty at the Indian Grand Prix for ignoring caution flags in first practice.

Sauber's Sergio Perez has also been handed the same penalty, which arose at the end of the Friday morning session at the new Buddh International Circuit.

The penalty was for "ignoring double waved yellow flags while marshals were in close proximity to track".

McLaren managing director Jonathan Neale said the penalty was "fair".

Neale added that Hamilton felt he had made a mistake.

Marshals were close to the race track attending to the Williams of Pastor Maldonado, who had stopped with an engine failure.

Both Hamilton and Perez set their fastest lap times while the caution flags were still waving, for which there is an instant penalty.

At least he's acknowledged that he made a mistake. I really don't see what all the fuss is about.

He'll never learn. Such a shame, as I think he's a decent driver.

Disagree to a point - he needs to get his head sorted, and he's already acknowledged that, this week by saying he was going to clear out the distractions in his life and concentrate on F1.

Having said that, it IS Lewis, so I don't expect him to undergo a transformation overnight - he will still get into trouble with his aggressive style - but hopefully not with the total stupidity he's made with some of his racing decisions this year.
