Sometimes I wonder if they are really this inapt or just trolling the whole world and having a good laugh.
99 was the year that the FIA decided to measure barge board indiscretions with them not actually being fitted to the car!

Why not just have Charlie Whiting standing on the endplate while someone else looks to see what's happening.

It's not going to work though, is it.

Stories like: "Charlie tests Ferrari wing after heavy lunch with Martin Whitmarsh" would be the norm wouldn't they.
