Martin Brundle believes the FIA should have checked the planks of all 17 finishers in Austin on Sunday, after Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified for being found to have excessive wear on that part of their cars.
Martin Brundle: ‘If 50% of the tested cars failed, then shouldn’t all the finishers have been checked?’ As the current ground effect era aerodynamics rely on the cars being run close to the ground, Brundle thinks the remaining finishers should have been checked in this area, despite the “beyond comprehensive” tests that already go into the cars after races.Explained: Why Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified from US Grand Prix
