- Mercedes is the real offender here. They knew very well that the brake ducts of RP were illegal, but said nothing.
- it's peanuts, and only because Ferrari kept appealing against legality of RP brake ducts, the only team left taking actions after even Renault, who made the original protest, dropped it. Coincidentally after dropping the protest Renault have started flying
I used the word "fine" but I should have used penalty, RP should not be allowed on tracks for using illegal parts.
Ferrari is not allowed to run with their original engine - even though officially nothing wrong has been found - and it's probably the only "clean" (as not illegal) engine this year.
