Pastor Maldonado, WilliamsPastor Maldonado has blamed his
failure to stop at the weighbridge during Q2, which earned him a
reprimand and triggered an automatic 10-place grid penalty, on
the signal light turning red too late.  Drivers can be called to
the weighbridge at any time when they enter the pits during
qualifying, with a light on the pit-wall going red to indicated
that they must stop. But Maldonado did not see the light,
leading to the reprimand for failing "to proceed directly tot he
FIA garage when signalled to do so."  "It's 50/50," said
Maldonado. "The light came on quite late.  "It was the first
time that we run the 100kph in the pitlane and when you are at
100kph and the light is just 20 meters ahead of you, it's too
late.  "Maybe the light was completely red when I crossed it but
at the same time, the entry of the pitlane is very narrow, you
are very low in the car and there is a hill. When the hill
finishes, there is the light, so it is a difficult situation."
