I'm no FA fan, and no Renault fan, but the original ruling was horse s***.

FA had absolutely nothing to do with the wheel not being properly attached. When the driver screws up, and I mean really screws up by doing something intentionally dangerous, then you ban the driver. When the team screws up, you fine the team.

The only time I can see excluding a whole team from a race is when their car design is blatantly unsafe--and not tightening a wheel all the way doesn't have a thing to do with the design.
