Red Bull have slammed the decision which saw Sebastian Vettel, the defending two-time champion, handed a 20-second penalty by stewards following the race at the Hockenheim circuit.

The penalty came after officials deemed Vettel's move to pass Jenson Button on the penultimate lap was in violation of F1 rules.

The penalty cost Vettel a second-place finish and he was demoted to fifth.

What are your thoughts on the penalty - Was it too harsh?
