Re: Daniel Ricardo disqualified from Australian F1 race
I very much doubt that's the case. The 5 hours will be going through the process of the protest and investigation.

Re: Daniel Ricardo disqualified from Australian F1 race
I reckon Seb waited for Daniel to buy a round of drinks in the bar before reporting his car to the FIA. Hence the delay.
I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

Re: Daniel Ricardo disqualified from Australian F1 race
I think there would have been a riot there at the podium if Ricciardo had been dq'd before the ceremony.
When in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout

Re: Daniel Ricardo disqualified from Australian F1 race
There is a Rule and it is monitored by the equiment given. If they are told to adjust because those meter show too much flow, then they were given a fair chance to change.
Why would anyone believe RB's own meters? They can calibrated to show too little just to piss FIA off in these ind of situations....

Well said!
I thought the race wasn't bad, but if they want to encourage fans to watch and see F1 for what it should be, they shouldn't make decisions like this.
Burning too much fuel? Never heard so much poppycock in my life!
As you say, motor racing is meant to be like that.
As Adam Hills would say on his Last Leg show (I can't say the word on here but I shall put one that rhymes): The FIA, you are micks!

I agree completely with you .They were told they were over the limit with fuel supply ,as were Mercedes,and given the option to do something about it by adjusting the flow .Mercedes DID Red Bull decided not to .So from my mind nobody to blame but RB .Probably because they have got away with a few things before they thought ,they bend the rules for us !But the FIA made it very clear they were going to clamp down on this very heavily and I am glad they did !

This somewhat confirms what I said. I doubt RB will be succesfull in their appeal

It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin...
