It’s hilarious that much of the vitriol is against solutions that are entirely legal.
DAS - other could have followed it but they changed the rules - legal
Party Model - they could at the time all do it completely legal
Flexi wings - they put tests in most teams made changes legal
Brake magic - still fitted heats the brakes for restarts nice innovation - legal
Ferrari fuel - they got caught behind the scenes agreement should have been more, performance fell through the floor - illegal
Part ferme changes - there a set list mostly driver comfort related of what you can change and everything else you can’t. Touch a car in parc ferme to change settings that’s a pitlane start / disqualification plain and simple. If it wasn’t Red Bull and (we all know it was) why now a seal if they never changed it. Smoke and fire much….
The kids aren’t happy about facts but there they are, innovation is great and most teams get these things approved by the FIA even if other teams don’t understand what they have created.
