The Munich District Court has sentenced Formula 1 driver Adrian Sutil for grievous bodily harm to a prison sentence of one year and six months probation.
Judge it saw Christiane Thiemann on second day of talks to be a fact that the 29-year-old on 17 Had a disco in April 2011 in Shanghai, the Luxembourg businessman Eric Lux dangerously wounded with a glass at the neck.
At the half year prison sentence was suspended for three years on probation, the judge imposed a fine of 200,000 €, which will go to eight charitable organizations.
Attorney Nicole Selzam had demanded in their plea even a suspended sentence of one year and nine months and 300,000 euro fine.
The attempt was an understanding between the parties on Tuesday morning, apparently frustrated by the prosecutor.
Sutil, who had been called out of work after the departure of Force India, even as now, had apologized in his closing remarks again.
"I'm terribly sorry for everything. To be in that moment I did not know, do not mind that I had a glass in his hand. There is one incident that I regret. He is determined me a lesson," he had said.
The prosecutor had accused Sutil, his first statement on the trial was "well-rehearsed and prepared" was. He had "not been willing to plausibly explain" what had happened.
Sutil that speak of a reflex is ridiculous, Selzam said with reference to the testimony of an expert, that the jar was taken from the side perpendicular to the neck.
