what punishment if any, should all parties involved levy?
Mercedes corporate?
F1?
Lewis Hamilton personally?

From what it looked like to me yesterday it was any old normal racing incident. Nico tried to pass and Hamilton tried to cut him off. It has happened countless times this year. The two drivers need to remember in the future not to knock each other out of the race considering they are teammates.

After hearing everything I took it more as Nico being like 'Lewis makes more aggressive wider swings when racing me because he knows I will back off since we're teammates. I'm tired of that. I put my car there knowing a collision was possible if Lewis blindly swung out because I'm not just going to tool around behind him anymore'.
100% a driver drama issue.

Please stop regurgitating Hamilton's typically woe-is-me story of events.
Toto Wolff came out and explained Rosberg's internal comments already: Rosberg decided to be aggressive and stuck his nose in in an attempt to force Hamilton to yield to him. It was stupid, and it didn't work, but in no way, shape, or form was it Rosberg intentionally hitting Hamilton. He tried to force Hamilton to make the decision between hitting Rosberg's nose and yielding, and it didn't work out too well.
It's the same kind of move that F1 fans for years have lauded between teammates, specifically when Senna and Prost did it to each other incessantly, and more recently, when Vettel did it to Webber multiple times.
Again, it wasn't smart, but he feels like, despite his success this season, he's second fiddle and needed to make a psychological (and race strategic) move there to assert himself as more than just the person cleaning up the pieces of Hamilton's DNFs. Whether or not you think it was smart, or good, or worked to the degree that he wanted it to, it's vastly different from intentionally hitting Hamilton.

Mercedes should subject Nico to the same speed pitstops they've been giving Lewis
