McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton escaped with a reprimand on Friday after an on-track incident with Bruno Senna.
The 2008 world champion, who must win on Sunday to have a chance of this year's title, was quickest in the second free practice session at Abu Dhabi but afterwards faced the stewards.
Hamilton, momentarily held up by Senna's slower HRT, had aggressively cut across the front of the Brazilian's car into the pit entry.
But he received merely a "reprimand" for crossing the pit entry white line.
"It was nothing. Bruno and I have no problems, it was just a misunderstanding," Hamilton told reporters.
"I'll speak to Bruno to make sure everything is cool," he added.
Hamilton's pace looked good with a new wing that was working well.
“We’ve been hoping for some time to improve our revised rear wing. It hasn’t really been working fully since we first tested it at Suzuka, so we’ve not been able to use it to its fullest extent. We knew that it had potential though – and to have it finally working properly is a huge plus for us,” said Hamilton.
