Yes I know. But in cases like these...they seem so hard. So I feel bad for Bearman
However, if he tried to brake and didn't succeed in time, the penalty probably would've been different, I think that the stewards there made that call.
They don't want drivers to think and decide for themselves, if anything regulatory happens their first thing has to be: follow the rules.
And in F1...all drivers are considered the best of the best in the world. So 100% knowledge of the rules and 100% understanding what the Stewards want to see should be considered 2nd nature if you want to be in that club of the best of the best. So that is an argument for that in F1 there's no room or need for compassion.
