'More Severe Punishments When Committing Such Errors'

Scuderia Ferrari Team Principal Stefano Domenicali has looked to the FIA after the massive pile up at the start of the race at Spa in Belgium. With his leading driver Fernando Alonso having suffered minor injuries in the crash caused by French Lotus driver Romain Grosjean, who is not allowed to race at Monza next weekend, Domenicali believes that more severe punishments should be handed out for drivers when committing such errors in the many series leading up to F1.

“First, the good news: Fernando is fine,” the Team Principal said. “All of us went through a heart-stopping moment after the accident, especially as we could not communicate with him. Only when we saw him emerge from the cockpit could we let out a first sigh of relief and then we began to breathe normally when we saw him make it back to the garage."

“As for the accident, I can only say that the judgement falls to the FIA. What is certain is that it would be better if, starting with the junior formulae, rules relating to on-track behaviour were enforced in an inflexible manner, so as to have drivers as well prepared as possible when they reach this, the highest level of motorsport,” Domenicali added.
