That's BA who caused the misconnect. When you say slight delay, that makes Article 7 compensation potentially tricky since it's easier for BA to maintain extraordinary circumstances were to blame. Had you got to LHR on time then I presume you would have made the Iberia flight and therefore it's not Iberia that was the operating airline here.
