On the meeting stewards, whether FIA or not, they were judging the physical legality the car, or part of it. The brake ducts are technically legal. It is the sourcing of them that is the problem. As they aren’t charged with checking this on a race weekend, indeed it would be impractical, it is clear why they found no problem with them. It strikes me that challenging this after a race is the only reasonable way to do it.
I don’t see how any of this suddenly requires the FIA to release the details around the Ferrari ruling last year. Why would anything else be revisited?
None of the above is a comment on whether RP did anything wrong, or did everything right. Just a desire to understand the situation better.
