[Team] Ferrari: in F1

[F1Guy]

Hilarious!

Not once since I posted in this thread on Ferrari and the covering of the FOM camera (post #68 >), have I ever said that Ferrari are doing something "illegal" or they are "cheating". Go back and read from post #68. Read carefully.

I was merely pointing out that the reason given by Ferrari for why a dry ice bag is placed over the camera, and the actual reason for why they do it were two very different things. Nothing more, nothing less.

Ferrari (and their ignoramus fans) have said the ice bag was to cool electronics inside the camera housing, when in fact, it was to block the camera from recording/broadcasting information that Ferrari wanted to protect. Ferrari obviously have something in their car set up procedure that they don't wish others to see (speculation is it's something to do with Ferrari's ERS, which has been cleared by the FiA). Nothing illegal or cheating about that. It's been going on for years in where teams have tried to protect an advantage they have over the other teams.

But we have the usual suspects who will leap to defend Ferrari's actions, but these same individuals are the only ones who bought up the subject of Ferrari doing something illegal and/or are cheating. See below for example.

There's also a completely made up assumption that if a team is hiding something then it must be illegal.

Guilty conscious maybe?? Hilarious!

And then the usual petulant posts by the usual suspects will soon follow.
