It would have been justified, yes. But it would have been a silly situation nonetheless - a very small mistake by the team and major consequences.
I would say that since no real advantage was gained, a fine is reasonable punishment.
Do You agree when the very same rules are applied in a different way in relation to the manufacturers and the privateers and when FIA completely contradicts their own statements in matter of days?
Can't help but feel a bit disappointed and bored with this season's championship fight... Thierry not liking the car/tyres and never really in the game. Tanak doing what he can but Hyundai is just...
Are Tänak and Neuville driving with Hyundai Accent?
