Seems a little silly to me. One of the most technologically advanced sports in the world and they can’t measure temperatures properly.

The problem is that the ambient temperature is supposed to be checked by an independent verifier, and it seems the verifier could not confirm the ambient temperature was high enough to put the investigated cars in the danger zone. It’s not just a question of bias.

The FIA once again demonstrated that decisions are taken according to who is friend and who is foe.
McLaren gets slapped with the loss of points and a 50 m fine for something that was never proven.
But 4 drivers keep their points in spite of doctored fuel. Mosley must be very happy to be able to slap R.Dennis once again.
McLaren should just pull out of the Ecclestone circus and start a new F1. This season has been a shame and a shamble. A waste of excellent and honest drivers (not Alonso, and now it seems neither Raikkonen).

Well deserved WDC for Kimi!

And an attaboy goes out to you Oliver for keeping us entertained with your F1 thoughts during the season…not suking up, just giving you your dues. It takes a lot of commitment and effort to write like this for the whole year…
