I heard someone saying something about being able to communicate "critical errors" or some other nonsense. If I recall, Perez had brake failure in Austria exactly because his team couldn't tell him his brakes were on the verge of failure.
Absolute micky mouse nonsense. Should have been a DQ and then everyone would have known the FIA were serious. Add in the qualifying BS with only certain laps being disallowed and this is taking on the air of a circus.
Me thinks HAM should be asking the team for a bit a clarity as to why they were so quick to assist ROS while telling him he was on his own two races ago.
