Don't quite get why everyone is being hard on Ferrari.
Most all teams (and Red Bull in particular) have developed all kinds performance gains over the years that were later deemed as illegal or the regulations adjusted to make them illegal.
Thats the nature of the sport...Ferrari and RedBull have especially pushed the limitings of the regulation for years. Its hilariously hypocritical of RB fans to call out Ferrari on a technical wheeze that was within the technical regs at the time.

^I'm a RB follower and used to be a Ferrari one but anything that's said on here I think mostly is done in a humorous way or it's intended that way and being human some may appear a little ott. On other sites there were the continuous things like 'ferrari international assistance' jokes coming a lot from Merc fans but things are changing quick from what I see now Merc and another Merc engined team are losing fans hand over fist because of their stance on certain political issues.

seems like Red Bull asked to have another look on Hamilton's pass on Bottas when he was out.. on footage, right almost after Lewis passes from the screen shows yellow flag but the next one is green..

Watching SKY live and they just announced HAM has received a three grid penalty for not slowing under the yellow during yesterday's qualy....SKY's announcers said they have never seen a penalty occur this close to the start of the race which is only 40 minutes from lights out....

Just saw. It seems that he will start 5th and not be in the way of a first corner lunge/lurch.
