Re: Formula One Motor Racing
The logic of the engine rules seems to be...

If you fail to finish, due to mechanical fault or damage, then you MAY replace the engine.

If you finish, then you must make the engine last two races.

Where the loophole was, they "failed to finish" by simply pulling out of a non-points placed finish. though quite how they prevent anyone claiming they had a problem, unless they leave it to scrutineering to decide if the car was actually in a bad enough condition.

How long before the first argument over changing a "dangerous" tyre... the mechanics had better have something to make sure the tyre is punctured... oops, I mean to check the tyre is punctured.

Just like the problem of team orders - anyone can mess up a corner.
