In Spain we have a word for this: "Grosjeanada" (used for every single time that Grosjean creates the chaos in the track)

And the news:

Grosjean handed one-race ban for first-corner crash
Romain Grosjean has been banned for one race following the crash at the start of the Belgian Grand Prix.

Double penalty for Maldonado after jump start and crash
Pastor Maldonado will lose ten places on the grid at the Italian Grand Prix.

Grosjean banned from the next race, wow. It was his fault, but I don't think he deserved to miss Monza despite the seriousness of the accidents.

I remember one year that someone had a problem going up Eau Rouge and Kimi was told on the radio that there is oil on the track as he was coming up to it. He radioed back and said something like I see the oil line on the track not a problem and the telemetry showed that he didn't even lift. He's got big brass ones...

Excited for this race, Spa is such an awesome track.

My money is on Alonso, Hamilton or Vettel and on an off chance Button

So....it seems my prediction was off by quite a bit. Feel bad for Alonso and Hamilton, but that's racing for you. Button did extremely well though, he lead through qualifying and was fantastic in the race. Vettel also put on a great display. All in all a great race weekend. Championship has tightened up a bit too, which is awesome
