minus-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·2年前Lol this isn’t just a technicality. It’s a major part of the sporting regulations.
minus-squareitsonlygeorge@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down5·2年前Well test every car then. DQ everyone who fails.
minus-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down5·2年前That isn’t even possible given the amount of time it would take. Lewis, is that you?
minus-squareitsonlygeorge@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down2·2年前There are only 20 cars. How hard is it to measure 20 planks?
minus-squarejimbolauski@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·2年前It takes about 30 minutes to check a plank. If it can be done in parallel then that’s not too bad, if not 10 hours is too long.
minus-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·2年前Would depend how long parc fermé lasts after the race, what equipment they’re using to test, etc.
minus-squareitsonlygeorge@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down2·2年前I’d like to see how many cars fail.
minus-squareSatouKazuma@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·2年前I’m not sure, but it’s telling that Merc and Ferrari were the only teams who ran their cars so aggressively at the USGP. RB and McLaren actually raised their cars and planned for it, thus not failing the post-race inspection.
