makes sense really. if they do run their cars this year in anger then surely they will learn things and want to make improvements. a couple of tokens would seem, as Brawn suggests, allow for that while keeping an eye on costs so good compromise.
also, apparently one team has a cooling issue with their car?

I read that. My first thoughts were:
1. Practicle solution for those that need to make adjustments in a "frozen" development cycle.
2. Teams will try to game this.
Basically it is a "get out of jail free" card. Problem is, will a team not have a "big" problem and will then use their joker early to try to develop the car. Then later they do have a real problem, don't have a joker and complain and ask for more! I can't seem to find any details on how the this limited token system works. Is there multiple tokens, etc.?
