Sebastian Vettel has urged the FIA not to hand out bans for practice misdemeanours and instead let the drivers sort out any issues.
Vettel and Kevin Magnussen were involved in a dispute after first practice in Belgium, where the German felt he was impeded.
Both were summoned to a hearing, but Vettel said the pair discussed the issue.
"You want to have a clean run, you don't want to be in traffic when you start your lap, especially at tracks like Spa - that's what everybody was up to," he said.
"Sometimes, you have a situation where two drivers want to go for the same bit of Tarmac and you can talk about impeding.
"But generally I'm not a fan of it, I think you should leave us alone and let us deal with it.
"If we're not happy, it's up to us to go to the other guy and talk it through.
"In that case, we met at the stewards office and talked about it. It's fine."
