LOTUS driver Romain Grosjean admitted that he made "a stupid mistake" in Japan, where Mark Webber branded him "a first-lap nutcase", but said that it was time to move on.
Grosjean, slapped with a one-race ban over a first-corner crash in Belgium, was at it again at Suzuka on Sunday, driving into Webber seconds into the race.
"Since Singapore (on September 23, after his ban), I've been trying to be really cautious at the starts and it's been all the more frustrating to be involved in an incident in Japan," he said. "When approaching the first corner, I was watching Sergio (Perez) on my left to make sure there was no contact with him. I didn't expect such a big speed difference between me and Mark (Webber) braking into the corner, we collided and that was it."
"It was a stupid mistake. Mark came to see me after the race and was obviously not happy, but I apologized."
