    This is jut ridiculous. F1 and FIA fucked up the security and Ferrari gets penalized for it.

      Not trolling, genuinely asking. Why do you say this? I have been working 18 hour shifts all week and have not been able to follow up on anything F1 related. Could you post the backstory or some links where I can inform myself please?

        The damage to the Ferrari car floor, battery and even the monocoque was caused by improperly secured drain covers. FIA should have found this problem before allowing cars on track. F1 as organizer should have done a better job preventing this in total.

        So while usually the track organizer is not actually F1 itself you can argue it’s not their fault something like this happens, in this case it’s stupid that the problem is caused by the entities that are also applying the penalties to the victim of their negligence.
