FIA has to 'react because the majority of the teams was in the cost cap. And they can't be penalised for being in the cost cap...' F1
‘Breaking the cost cap is a more serious breach than cheating’Jost Capito says breaking last year’s budget cap is a “more serious breach than cheating” as it gave those teams an unfair advantage heading into F1’s new ground effect aerodynamic era.
Rival teams are up in arms as not only did Red Bull win last year’s Drivers’ Championship title, but this year they are racing towards the double. Williams team principal Capito reckons the advantage of overspending would be so great that it should be considered a “more serious” offence than cheating on the track.“And if somebody doesn’t stay in the cost cap, it has to have serious implications. Because not having stayed in the cost cap last year is most likely development for this year’s car.“So it has to have a sportive impact on this season. It doesn’t make sense to have any financial penalty on top that you spent the money.
