Chris, as a racer you must be aware that there are ways of "slowing down" without actually decreasing the speed you're travelling at. Like when you exit from a corner and don't accelerate? Even the Safety Car canes it out of the corner. LH stayed out to the right on exit out of the corner and his body language spoke to IT: overtake me! No one here's saying why you overtook, why you let him back in? LH was disqualified for going along with a lie originated from within his own team, in order that he gets ONE extra point and demote a fellow competitor!
Like I said above, there's no defence in law: "He told me to lye!" If you knowingly chose to perpetuate a lie, you are guilty of telling the lie. Unless you are under duress or coercion, which LH clearly wasn't!
Someone was joking on 1st April that LH has signed for Ferrari, IMHO we might now see him leave McLaren sooner rather than later!
