I would add to this. That this kinda stuff is pretty normal that there are somewhat open secrets/confidential details contained within any industry esp those that work in it. Doesn't always mean there is anything dodgy. If say in this case the FIA was seeking more clarification on spending from RBR, admin stuff somewhere may have said something, or Lawyers talking to other lawyers and so on.SiLo wrote: ↑28 Jun 2024, 10:38The ride height fiasco supported by multiple teams and drivers? You're just regurgitating what the press smashed into everyone's faces for weeks because it was easy clicks and generated rage induced engagement.peewon wrote: ↑27 Jun 2024, 19:53Ferrari copied Mercedes for that. The rear wing AM made was also legal. It was specifically outlawed on the basis of it creating turbulent air and thus violating the 'spirit of the regulation'. Like they came out and said this. AM's front wing last season would also pass all legality checks. The ride height fiasco was the biggest giveaway of preferential treatment. One team struggles to make their cars work and FIA sabotage their own regulations.
The Stewards being inconsistent has been a thing for years, you will find hundreds of posts about it on this very forum.
Wolff not liking BS is well know, but it's not like BS is doing wonders for this sport. Whether Wolff is acting specifically in his own self interest or at least, some of the sport is yet to be seen, but BS has not been a good appointment (see here). Their response to the FIA launching an investigation with no communication was fair. Trivialising it by calling it a "nothing 2 day we will look into it process" is wide of the mark.peewon wrote: ↑27 Jun 2024, 19:53Again Mercedes didnt go after FIA, they went after one person, Ben Sulayem. Its obvious to anyone with an ounce of critical thinking that they want this guy removed. Probably because hes the spanner in the works for them. Filing legal action over a nothing 2 day "we'll look into it" process doesnt make any sense. If anyone she should have been mad at the tabloid. There is absolutely no mention of anything that the FIA did thats egregious. Just vague ranting to create the desired headlines. This is why his past statements were also brought up. To drum up public sentiment for hi removal.
A Team Principle knowing information that the public are not privvy to? Colour me shocked. I believe Zak Brown also made allusions to this but I notice you didn't include him either.
I won't respond anymore, your bias is clear.
