Quote:
Having considered the matter extensively, the Stewards determined that the team gave some instructions to the driver that were specifically permitted under Technical Directive 014-16,” read a statement from the stewards. “However, the Stewards determined that the team then went further and gave instructions to the driver that were not permitted under the Technical Directive, and were in Breach of Art. 27.1 of the Sporting Regulations, that the driver must drive the car alone and unaided.
cliffs: when his gearbox went poof they said CHASSIS 01, CHASSIS 01, CHASSIS 01 which is an engine mode or something. this was allowed because the advice was needed to avoid a catastrophic failure on the car.
however, when he was later told 'avoid 7th gear' and asked 'what u mean, double upshift past 7th?' and the bloke replied 'affirmative'.. that was illegal
