Hopefully another team will appeal this bullshit. They've weaseled themselves out of a clear cut case.....

So using too much fuel is worthy of a dq but ignoring safety rules is not.

he stewards have determined that the tyres were at the right pressure when they were attached to the cars," says Ted Kravitz who now has the official verdict from the FIA.


Lol, this is simply not true.

Having heard from the Technical Delegate, the Team Representatives and the Pirelli Team Tyre engineer, the Stewards have determined that the pressure in the tyres concerned were at the minimum start pressure recommended by Pirelli when they were fitted to the car. In making this determination regarding the pressures, the Stewards noted that the tyre warming blankets had been disconnected from their power source, as is normal procedure, and the tyres were significantly below the maximum permitted tyre blanket temperature at the time of the FIA’s measurement on the grid, and at significantly different temperatures from other cars measured on the grid. Further, the Stewards are satisfied that the team followed the currently specified procedure, supervised by the Tyre Manufacturer, for the safe operation of the tyres.

Therefore the Stewards decide to take no further action.

Nevertheless, the Stewards recommend that the Tyre Manufacturer and the FIA hold further meetings to provide clear guidance to the teams on measurement protocols.

Now everybody can go under pressurized and simpky say that the temperatures were lower. Yeah right. Good job stewards, by making a clear black and white case as grey as the mercedes....

Are the stewards even capable? Shouldn't it be a simple calculation with pressure and temps to calculate the probable tire pressure at a certain temp?

Wow, you must be bitter.

The "Lewis Hamilton" - witch hunt of this thread was utterly amusing, but also a bit saddening. In a way its like on the x factor where making fun of people and judging them is conveyed as socially acceptable. And I'm a bit disappointed that people who have a function on this forum vividly take part in it.

Don't they have access to the data, like tyre pressure, for every second of the race?

That data is not relevant since the tire is in motion and temperatures would be dynamic.

This is ridiculous, I don't give a flying fuck it's Lewis. Rules are rules. Getting tired of people saying everyone hates Hamilton and want him punished. His team should be punished.
