Don't forget that DR came through the same Red Bull system as Vettel, so Marko will presumably not look on him the same way as he did an interloper like Webber. I'm sure he'd still favour Vettel to some extent, but it's not the same relationship with Dan as it was with MW.
Daniel Ricciardo has been stripped of his second place finish at the Australian Grand Prix after his car was considered to be in breach of fuel flow regulations. According to the FIA sensor fitted to the car, the Red Bull exceeded the maximum allowed fuel flow of 100kg per hour, and after over five hours of deliberations the stewards ruled the car was run illegally. They stated the car was not only in breach of the fuel flow regulation (Article 5.1.4 of the technical regulations) but also Article 3.2 of the sporting regulations, which requires team to ensure compliance with the technical regulations throughout the event. Red Bull made clear that it intends to appeal the decision. The debate over the legality of the car centres on the FIA fuel flow sensor fitted within. After differences between the sensor's readings and the team's readings during Friday practice, Red Bull fitted a new sensor on Saturday, which failed during qualifying. For the race the FIA technical representative instructed the team to revert to the original sensor from Friday and apply an offset to make up for the discrepancies in the readings. Red Bull considered the original fuel flow sensor to be unreliable and for the start of the race chose to use its "internal fuel flow model ... with the required offset" instead. However, a technical directive issued on March 1 states that only the FIA, and not individual teams, can decide if an alternative fuel flow measure can be used.

I think as far as Aussies are concerned the FIA can get ****ed They need to check on the Mercs, they've always cheated
Not quite 300,000 but 80,000 kliks in my ownership of 7yrs4mths came up on the way home and only been on a tilt tray once. Fantastic trip my daughter loved the track but has reservations about my sanity.
I'll nearly be Giovarni Millard's age for that one. My daughter and I had a little disagreement on the way home. She said you were both very nice. wtf
Great to see Mr Ricciardo's pit crew & strategy team are the same ones Mr Webber 'enjoyed' in his time at RBR... Boooooo....
