Is the time a limiting factor here? I read the results of 4 cars checks came 2 hours after the GP finished. Given we have night races that are followed up with FP1 less that 5 days later (following Friday morning), there possibly a logistics issue if doing those checks across 20 cars canโt be completed the evening of the race for any reason. Possibly isnโt just a headcount issue too if particular equipments needed? Thereโs time needed to ship the cars to other countries.
Watching Tedโs notebook teams are often well into teardown not long after the race ends, so perhaps losing a night becomes an issue for the back to back races.
Iโm not sure to be honest, but just a thought.
No thatโs a good point on the timescales that I hadnโt considered. Although I assume the planks detach - could they all be handed over the the FIA for testing at a later date?
I am guessing FIA mandates that no work be done on the car if it had been selected for random tests. How will you ensure it is the same plank if it is delievered well after the car has been disassembled
Most parts appear to have the irremovable/tamper proof stickers on with a serial number. Put one on the plank which is registered with the FIA. When itโs sent to the FIA after theyโll know if itโs the correct plank or not.
