Mercedes must be arguing how the DRS slat is over the limit cause of some defect and not intentional. Would be really bizarre if Merc lied but this is F1 and cheating is only cheating if you are caught. Well this is even weirder since Mercedes was also suspected for this in the Mexican GP IIRC but was legal.Īll the teams have their own " inspectors" and they usually inspect before entering parc ferme. Max, though, went straight for the offending part, but that team has experience, especially in that area and those methods, don't they.

But for such a stupid and obvious method, well, deservedly.Īs it is, they are lucky to be where they are, considering that they started believing a championship this year to be winnable so late in the day.

I can't believe that mercedes would be so stupid to try such a trick this late in the game with so much, literally everything, at stake.
