Kobayashi lands 25k penalty

Japanese driver Kamui Kobayashi was fined €25,000 after knocking over three of his Sauber mechanics when he drove too fast into the pits at the British Formula One Grand Prix.

Fortunately, the three mechanics suffered only minor injuries but race stewards took a dim view of the incident.

“It was a very dangerous manoeuvre which had potentially serious implications,” they said in their ruling.
