Former McLaren driver John Watson believes that Red Bull should suspend Sebastian Vettel from the Chinese Grand Prix following his admitted "mistake" in Malaysia.
The world champion ignored team orders by overtaking his teammate Mark Webber to win the Malaysian Grand Prix yesterday.
Following the controversial move, Watson believes that the Formula 1 team should punish the 25-year-old for his actions.
"The question is, what are the team going to do to sanction Sebastian Vettel? And the only solution I would find is suspending him for next grand prix," Watson told BBC Radio 4.
"You can't take the points away from him and give them to Mark Webber, a fine would be irrelevant, so the only purposeful way to bring him to book is to say 'you will stand out one race'."
Meanwhile, Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton nabbed the third podium place ahead of teammate Nico Rosberg.
