    Only 4 cars were checked. 50% of them failed. Imagine how many others would have been disqualified if all cars were checked.

      But why should they ? It is known that a hand full of cars are checked. If they run illegal cars and they get picked, then tough luck I guess. They just could‘ve run a legal car and they wouldn’t have a problem

      ​@@braul9093Yeah.. this is the weird one for me. I understand picking a handful of cars, but when a couple of cars fail, surely you have to check their teammate's as it's a high likelihood that their cars were also running illegally.

    Why are all cars not checked? imagine if LeClerc or Lewis lost out on the title to someone who wasn't checked.

      1: This is called a spot check and it keeps all teams in check. There is not enough time to check all the cars, so knowing that at any point in time you could be checked is a deterrent.
      2: Verstappen, Norris, lewis and Leclerc were checked, 2 were with in regulation and 2 weren't period.:
      3: There are literal photos of all the cars going through the same corner at COTA and Norris and Verstappen's cars were noticeably higher than the others by almost a few inches.

    Check ALL the planks after the race, if any in the "random" test fail... give a 10 place grid penalty to any others that fail ... a bit inconsistent but better than the current situation.
    New plank and skid blocks should be allowed after the sprint ... or have a new plank for the sprint and its qualifying session then replace it for the main race.

      @bruhmoment2088 ... they collect them (as they are a throw away item) and examine them later ... they have time because they have a week to issue the grid penalties ... and the 'fault' is a slam dunk!
      In fact they could just examine the skid blocks ... again replaced items.
      The problem is really if a grid penalty for some is more unfair than ignoring the problem.
      The championship is affected in the amount of money each team gets, and any team ending up lower in the points than they should be loses a great deal of money.
      Checo's car should also have been checked as it directly affects the leading positions in the championship.

    Now everyone complaining the only way will be to check every car after every race . Just like not really track limits 20 year ago but now its over the top, i thought these skid blocks got checked after every race for the last 25 plus years anyway, why is it in the news again

    Because a milimeter provides a super big advantage and so much more speed, I bet an extra lap and it would be quicker than a red bull, honestly it’s ridiculous that they think it’s gonna provide a disadvantage to other teams

    It's not fair because the team had only one practice session thanks to the sprint weekend to get data about skid wear, and even if they notice a high skid wear in the sprint they cant do anything because of parc fermé

Yes plank was thin by 0.1 mm for sure it gave Mercedes "huge" advantage 🤣 Rules are rules so disqualification was properly in this situation but ppl think please before you wrote some rubbish.

      Nobody cheated. The problem is that there is not enough data and time in the practice runs to set the right height (especially with bumpy Austin). That weekend there was a sprint race which caused the problem of not having enough time and data to set the good height of the car.
