F1 teams are satisfied with the FIA’s current procedure of carrying out random “spot-checks” on some cars after each race.
teams are satisfied with the FIA’s current procedure of carrying out random “spot-checks” on some cars after each race.Only four cars were checked for their plank wear after the race - with half of them failing. That led Hamilton to sensationally claim ahead of this weekend’s Mexico City Grand Prix that more cars would have been deemed illegal had they been examined.
“It would take so long that I think everyone would get frustrated by that. The spot-checks and the severity of the penalty is enough that I think most of the time, most or all of the cars will be legal.Alfa Romeo’s head of trackside engineering Xevi Pujolar added: “From my side, I’ll leave it to them to decide which cars need to be tested and happy if they do either way.”“We know what the regulations are. Each team decides on the margins and how much to push on it.
“When you see the document that comes out after the grand prix, there are over 50 checks of all the classified finishes, of which they are 17,” Brundle went on to explain.
