Should they? It was kinda fun tbh, gives an interesting twist
Did they fix something on Checo's car before sending him out again?
My understanding is that you need a valid reason to retire a car; you can't just park it if you're out of the points in order to preserve your engine, for example
So, if they decided to park him, there must have been a safety reason. Putting him back out without addressing that would mean they either retired him without a reason, or put him in danger by going back out again
I thought this would be the reason he would have to stay out after he returned to the race. If youโre saying that the car is now safe to drive, arenโt you not allowed to retire it 2 laps later without a reason? I was hoping that rule is what would have punished RB for this sneaky move.
I thought it gave an interesting twist too. I guess I would feel different if I wasn't a RB fan. Hard to say.
One other possibility comes to mind. What if there are no rule changes, but instead if the stewards think a team might try to take advantage of this, they decide at race time to hold their ruling disclosure until after the race?
Well, I personally don't like stuff happening after the race. I rather have it during the race. But in your spirit of keeping it simple: if the stewards think a team has done something to evade punishment, they can consider the punishment not correctly served.
