    See above article which came in the month of march
    this is what im hoping caused the oil ban , but im just saying that was the first thing they said when they discussed the oil issue, He said surprising it was Mercedes who questioned FIA on Ferrari using it, and said isn't interesting that when it get so close like this, you do get teams who want to get a solid understanding on anything that could give the other teams advantages ...something like that

    RB launched that issue for clarification before start of season in order to negate the quali advantage which mercs is getting not Ferrari (Ferrari didn't run that system).
    How come mercs lodged against Ferrari??? That crofty is an idiot. He's hamster slave.

    Vettel: We tried something in the afternoon, but I think it is difficult to find the rhythm here as the track is not easy

    Vettel: I think we are close. Red Bull is very fast and today it was not just for one lap but throughout both sessions.

    So initially RB asked for clarification then mercs responded.
    Then Ferrari asked again for detailed clarification, now mercs is suspecting us whether Ferrari is using such system.
    Interesting war

    I hope he stays in F1 for a long time, or he will have his own show, some type of show.
    probably a talk show

    Mercs suspected ferrari at Canada. Where FIA took the samples, then next statement has been released by FIA not mentioning the team name publicly. So there's something behind it.

    But the same thing happened with Ferrari about flexi floor. Which was suspected by RB. FIA deemed it legal.
    So I think mercs is just trying to throw stone on Ferrari which can lead to two things
    1. Development war
    2. If mercs loose they will show this as the reason.

    come Quali if mercs are faster by more than 0.3~0.4s i think it'l give a good indication that Ferrari had been using it in previous races?. But hopefully this clampdown means merc boys cant use it either... if they were

    Clampdown is for next year, I think so.

    For those interested in seeing updates brought to Baku by various teams in the aero dept. In the end are sector times and trap speed for FP.

    On seeing FP2, Ferrari didn't have new parts on it.
    So in fp3 we can see either Ferrari with new parts or fine tuning earlier set-up.
    Mind you, this oil burn concept proving to be lethal if top teams are using it for quali.
    Yest Mr horner was saying it's bringing about .2-.4ths difference. So we would see who are the gainers & loosers.

    Somehow RB are sustaining in high power tracks.
    Such was their low DF aero package. But still I can't believe how did they nail S2?? Which is twisty. By maintaining good top speed. Tyres were on in all sectors.

    Saw some smoke coming out in FP on a RedBull waiting on the pit line for the green flag. Commentator said it was most likely, because of the burning oil in the gas tank.
