The car maneuver shown in the picture above was made by Michael Schumacher during the Hungarian Grand Prix, as you can see He put Rubens Barrichello to great danger by almost pushing him into the pit wall. Because of this, Schumi was penalized a 10-place grid penalty at the race in Belgium. After reviewing the incident, 41-year-old Schumacher said: "I have got to say that the stewards are right with their judgment: the manoeuvre against [Barrichello] was too severe. I obviously wanted to make it difficult for him to overtake me and I also showed him clearly that I did not want to let him past, but obviously I did not want to endanger him with my manoeuvre". Lets hope that Schumi learned from his mistake, and stop this kind of driving. He is a good driver. We know that He is not having the best of seasons. We wish Him the best.
Sevastian Vettel touched his teammate Mark Webber during the race in Turkey.

Webber was leading from Vettel on lap 40 when the German, while attempting an overtaking manoeuvre, collided with his team-mate and crashed out of the race. David Coulthard who is a Red Bull Racing consultant gave the following opinion: "As for the crash, who was to blame? Webber held his ground, which he was perfectly entitled to do, and Vettel steered sharply towards the racing line once he felt he had cleared Webber’s car. Webber could have given him more room and Vettel could have kept going in a straight line towards the braking point. Both could have done more to avoid it. But one small problem, they are competitive animals".
Michael Schumacher is currently on the 9th. position with 38 points and Sevastian Vettel is on the 3th. position with 151 points. The leader is Mark Webber with 161 points.
