No, just stormed off, refused to be interviewed, then came back and grabbed the '1' board from the front of Hamilton's car and swapped it with the '2'.
Can see why he's angry, but the stewards made the right decision.

50/50. He didn’t block Hamilton on purpose, but it did stop him being overtaken.

Hmm... he admitted he saw him, and steered to the right. Not a lot in it, but I think he knew what he was doing.

Did Vettel gain an advantage during the second half of the incident? It seems likely he maintained his position for sure, but the on-board shots seem clear he was wrestling to control his car and maintain momentum as much as possible. I do not believe Vettel's actions were anything but racing instincts.

An unsafe entry, re-entry or release could be catastrophic so I guess the stewards are always going to come down on the side of safety and so they should. But the race was ruined as a spectacle from then on.

The penalty was both harsh and a shame, but also understandable.

Not a big motor racing fan, but a trip to Le Mans is on the list of things to do sometime. Cheers for that, AB. 9k currently watching.

Moving over to the right side of the track to block Hamilton, then claims he had no choice.
Poor Vettel. He just keeps making crucial mistakes, doesn't he?
