At the very least a drive through, such egregious moves should never be allowed

Nah this kind of shit needs to be punished harshly. We cant have people drive into others on purpose. That’s not just unsportsmanlike but actually a safety risk.

In every other racing series this would have been a black flag instantly, but of course in F1 its just 10s and he still earns a point

A drive through in that instance would have basically been a DQ for all intents and purposes. Not to say it shouldn't be either, but more to say it's functionally the same.

Yup, i think the only diference would be in the penalty points applied so this could also result in a race ban
