Angry Liuzzi critical of Villeneuve

Liuzzi crashed heavily following one of the restarts on lap 38, and the Toro Rosso driver claimed Villeneuve had pushed him into the wall. Liuzzi's accident caused the Safety Car to come out for the fourth time.

"When the accident happened I was close to Villeneuve, at the restart just behind him," said Liuzzi. "He locked up and we went side-by-side at the exit and he just pushed me straight into the wall.

"I guess you get used to this sort of thing from Jacques because he has done it plenty of times before. It was a pretty high speed accident."

Villeneuve, who finished the race in sixth place, was under investigation following the incident, but the stewards said there was not enough evidence to penalise the Canadian.

"The Stewards after hearing the explanation of both drivers and seen video recordings of the incident find that such evidence as is available to them is insufficient to enable them to determine that it is appropriate to impose a penalty and accordingly determine that the incident requires no further action," the stewards said.
