Karun Chandhok blasts FIA as Ted Kravitz explains why Lewis Hamilton escaped punishment

Karun Chandhok blasted the Formula 1 governing body for briefly reigniting the jewellery row with Lewis Hamilton on the eve of the Bahrain Grand Prix weekend.

It was pointed out on Friday morning that the Mercedes racer was the only one of the 20 drivers who failed to fill out a self-scrutineering form regarding jewellery. But it was long before, after a short investigation, it was confirmed that the Brit has been given an exemption.

The offending items are Hamilton's nose studs. He has long had one in his left nostril, which caused arguments with the FIA last season. It was removed for a while but returned in Singapore as Hamilton complained he had picked up an infection.
