    And what if 2 back markers failed and nobody cared. Random is about as fair as you can get. Just because it doesn’t seem fair doesn’t mean it wasn’t.

      Universally applying a rule by measuring all competitors shouldn’t be contentious.

      People baby the FIA too much. I am sure they can find a way to make it work–especially considering 50% of the cars they randomly tested failed.

        Pretty much every Motorsport body does it this way iirc. Nascar doesn’t inspect every car after every race in excruciating detail, they just spot check anything they think could have been manipulated.
