Turkía: La madre de todas las batallas

[El abuelo]

Que yo recuerde, el año pasado Ferrari probó sus escapes en un día de filmación...
y " Aunque era dentro de lo legal que lo hiciesen".. hubo protestas por parte de los otros equipos ( Redbull sobre todo) ya que "Iba contra el espíritu de la norma"
Y así, en un principio.. se pensó en cambiar la normativa...
FIA Bans Filming Day Testing
The FIA are set to ban the testing of new parts on in season filming days, it was revealed this evening.
Teams had been using a legal loophole to use so called ‘filming and promotional’ days to test new parts. However following complaints from various teams, there has been a change in the regulations which means that the only parts that may be used on the filming cars are ones which have been raced.
Concerns were raised within FOTA after both Mercedes Benz and Ferrari tested new parts during film days.


Recuerdo que en los días de filmación, se usan neumáticos diferentes a los de los GP's, construidos solo para las filmaciones....

a) Track testing shall be considered any track running time undertaken by a competitor entered in the
Championship with the exception of :
i) promotional events carried out using tyres provided specifically for this purpose by the
appointed supplier ;

Y NADA MAS.


Ferrari puede testar lo que les apetezca... pues la norma dice CLARAMENTE en que condiciones se han de hacer los test..

Otra cosa es el acuerdo que tengan 'de caballeros' entre ellos...
Pero si alguno se pasa del presupuesto ( lease Redbull)
¿ Por que otros han de respetar los acuerdos ' de caballeros' ?

iii) four one day aerodynamic tests carried out on FIA approved straight line or constant radius
