Martin Brundle: Alex Albon and Charles Leclerc both deserved penalties

Former F1 driver and now Sky Sports commentator and pundit Martin Brundle believes that both Charles Leclerc and Alex Albon deserved penalties for their aggressive driving during Sunday's race. The stewards did give Leclerc a penalty but Albon got away with his move on Lando Norris which many thought deserved to be punished. 

"I felt that both Leclerc and Albon deserved a penalty," Brundle said on Twitter. "Neither had full control of their car and caused race-ending/changing damage to another competitor. The jump start from Vettel is a tech decision. If he was in his start box with no relative movement at lights out then legal."

Leclerc crashed into Max Verstappen in the opening few corners of the race which forced the Red Bull driver out of the race. The incident was investigated by the stewards and no further action was the first decision but they went back on that and it was deemed that Leclerc was to blame. 

Albon also collided with Norris causing damage to the McLaren and effectively ending his race. Albon went on to finish 4th.
