 Following an inquiry into the incident between Alonso and Gutiérrez , the stewards took no action against either driver , deeming it a " racing incident " with no driver particularly to blame . Fernando Alonso shared the stewards ' opinion and was quick to express that he did not blame Gutiérrez . The accident was a talking point for days after the race , with former FIA president Max Mosley pointing out that Alonso 's impact might have been fatal about twenty years earlier . He praised the measures taken in terms of driver security ever since the fatal accident of Ayrton Senna at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix , saying that due to these efforts , one was now able to " expect the driver to walk away " from a violent crash .
