Vettel believes Sepang penalty not fair

Sebastian Vettel believes his ten-place demotion on the Malaysian grand prix grid was harsh, but has vowed to move on from his Melbourne tangle with Robert Kubica.

The pair collided whilst tussling over second place at Albert Park last Sunday, whereafter 21-year-old Vettel apologised and was ruled to have caused the collision in a post-race stewards' inquiry.

"I put it behind me very quickly," the Red Bull driver is quoted as saying by the broadcaster RTL.

Asked if he believes his penalty is fair, German Vettel admitted: "No. I couldn't dissolve into air and neither Robert or I wanted to end our races there."

Was unfair. Barichello ruined Webbers race in almost the exact same way (although he kept all his wheels), and didn't get any penalty.
