If you read the regulations they clearly state that "On inspection, the restictor shall be 34mm".
It was. On inspection. It was exactly the same as the ride hight rule in F1 that stated the cars "shall be 'x'mm high in the pitlane" They were. The drivers just jacked them down on the track. Farcical I know. The FIA accepted that all 3 drivers in Toyotas case knew nothing about the 'modification' -------------------- JDM ST205
Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000 Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying. |
