Very questionable ... the "Decision" is postponed to tomorrow/Saturday ...(it is actual 10 p.m. in Sao Paolo).

I am happy they are taking their time and doing more investigations into what happened because the outcome could play a huge part in deciding this years world champion.

So from what I can see from the rule book is.

1. If it's a fault that happened during qualifying then there potentially could be no action.

2. If its been a genuine mistake made by a Mercedes mechanic then Hamilton will start the sprint race from last place.

3. If Mercedes deliberately cheated then at the very least both Mercedes cars will be banned from taking part for the whole weekend or if they get a full penalty Mercedes will be excluded from the remainder of the season and all their Driver and Constructer points they already have will be null and void.

I would like to think they never cheated but I guess we will soon find out.

Now Max has been summoned for a rule break.

And here is what the rules say about Article 2.5.1

It is confirmed,that Hamilton´s Mercedes has failed the FIA Test.

The technical directive 011-19 regulates how the inspectors measure. To do this, the car's engine has to be started so that the hydraulics work in order to open the upper flap. Then the inspectors try to push a circular measuring gauge with a diameter of 85 millimeters with a force of 10 Newtons through the two wing elements. If the measuring prism slips, the test has not been passed. Amateur shots show how the stencil slips through the slot without the use of force.

This value was confirmed during the technical inspection. When open, however, the maximum value of 85 millimeters was exceeded.




For Max,is could maybe a "political" Decision:
It was confirmed,that Vettel for Example has done such Things in the Past with no Aftermath / Penalties.
But for the 2021 Championship,they maybe "punish" Max this Time......

Max has been very stupid the fact there is a video of him touching the wing of Hamiltons Mercedes has made it near impossible for Mercedes to be badly punished for breaking the rules. Mercedes could well argue that a simple touch from an outside party could be enough to have dislodged something and triggered the DRS rules breach – even if such a theory seems quite far fetched.

Had Lewis pushed Max off then he would have been given a penalty. Its bullshit and clear that the FIA are doing everything they can to make sure Lewis doesn't win the WC this year.

See once again the FIA are trying to punish Lewis for stupid reasons. He has once again been sent to see the race stewards.

For whatever reason, Max was not blaimed for forcing Hamilton out of the track, they overly punished everyone this season for this very reason. Overall, I don't like on track punishments, but whey just one driver is getting away with it, it is kinda annoying.

In the end, It was better this way, the non punishment made Hamilton's race even more impressive.
