I wonder if they will undo any of these suspiciously numerous speeding penalties. Vettel got one removed once, because of poor positioning of sensors. Which meant he took a shorter line than what the FIA assumed.
Maybe that's in play here today as well.
What ? Speed measurement is done ONLY via 'distance between sensors' on a curvy pit entry where different driving lines are possible ? Is this the ONLY way FIA measures 'pitlane speed' on all tracks ? I thought they should already have some redundancy built into this (what if a position sensor fails), like using an additional radio sensor with doppler effect (like what the police use on highways) mounted on a fixture at the entry of pitlane.
The number of pitlane-speeding penalties was way too high for all of it to be driver error.
