BP fined $373m in US - How much is that per ltr?

For "indescretions in the US" BP have been fined £373m.

Of course BP Profits might not really pay that as you and I will eventually pay for it through the pumps & our pockets!

Bearing in mind they made $13 billion profit last year, I wouldn't have thought they'd be too bothered about the fine (only two weeks profits). However their general trading is likely to suffer

The amount they were fined for the explosion at the refinery is the same as McLaren got for the Ferrari spying thing isn't it?
Does that seem a bit strange to anyone else?

Maclaren were fined by the FIA. BP were fined by a legal system.

Most of the fine appears to be for propane price fixing. Refinery lawsuits to come I believe.
