If there's a risk it could happen again then it has to be addressed before an incident happens not as a response to one.

And to suddenly change the rule out of the blue mid-season right after a race where this performance helped them win with an undercut, despite the fact that the issues you describe have been a known issue ever since refuelling stopped years and years ago and they’ve never thought to introduce it between seasons before? That doesn’t seem remotely suspicious to you?

El_Duderino 09 wrote: » That might be an idea, but it would slow the pitstop to maybe 20 seconds. So it would give extra advantage to a one stop strategy and even more tyre saving and tiptoeing around on race day. I'd say that the opposite of what we want to see.

El_Duderino 09 wrote: » The f1 rule change is not explicitly about slowing down. Pitstips, or even making them safer. It's about enforcing the rule that all elements have to be manual. They explain I he video someone posted above that the wheel guns can automatically send a signal to the traffic light to release the car. That's not manual. The traffic light isn't manual and the wheel gun signal isn't manual. So it's more about that element than anything else.
