The advantage is ultimately until the end of the current regulations, so the end of 2025. That’s potentially 5 world titles they could win fraudulentlyThe big question is you go over one season, how long do you get advantages for .
Clearly you will then be a step ahead of the game in the next season
They won’t need to weasel out, the FIA won’t penalise them other than a fine and perhaps a suspended sentence.Certainly why Christine was so coy about answering questions about the cost cap. Let's see how they weasel out of it.
A fine will mean every team will just go over that next seasonThey won’t need to weasel out, the FIA won’t penalise them other than a fine and perhaps a suspended sentence.
Do they pay people extra for being off sick? Wonder if they've got any jobs going.The argument it’s catering and sick leave is nothing short of ridiculous, merc laid off staff to meet the cap
A fine will mean every team will just go over that next season
If the FIA want these rules to stick they have got to give maximum sanction possible, it has also got to be visible, not a fine or caution.They won’t need to weasel out, the FIA won’t penalise them other than a fine and perhaps a suspended sentence.

Other teams will go crazy if there only get a fine with the car already having a notable advantageFine, followed by a change to rules and punishments which mean it’s a points penalty in future
If it is a fine then it must come out of this years expenditure, not an add on.The argument it’s catering and sick leave is nothing short of ridiculous, merc laid off staff to meet the cap

First reply is the best.
This shows me they’ve tried to hide the breach.
‘Released under the cost cap’
If that’s the case it should be a far harsher punishment IMO
as in ' they couldn't care less?'Reading elsewhere they should get a reduced budget cap for next season. I see a small problem with that punishment.
Exactly, just breach it again.as in ' they couldn't care less?'
I certainly don’t disagree with that, but the sport is f*cked and the FIA will not create a storm.If the FIA want these rules to stick they have got to give maximum sanction possible, it has also got to be visible, not a fine or caution.
Sporting penalty for 2021 Abu Dhabi GP of 5 secs for Max would settle it.Exactly, just breach it again.
Only one punishment will send a message, but no way will the FIA pull that trigger. Unless of course Ross Brawn wants to go out in a bang.
Either that or sat with his lawyers working out how to make a watertight argument that RBR's overspend had a material effect on last year's title race.I bet Toto is sat back, huge smile and smoking a cigar watching this shit explode.
