Tired from 2 races, makes a mockery of the intent of the sporting regulations. Qualifying engines were banned for a reason. Before someone jumps in and says the rules allow it, the intent admitly offered by ToTo Was to help new and ailing PU manufacturers, not to be exploited by the dominated PU manufacturer.
If Merc took a new ICE for each race this year, would it kill the sport? Probably and certainly erodes the credibility of Hammy’s performance.
Hammy is actually building creditability performing with near equal equipment. Overrunning an ICE discounts his efforts.
It reminds me of ZR1 corvettes during track days, you’d pass them in a 993 on the technical sections only to be passed in the straight. Vette driver was always confused why no one is interested in his great passes, meanwhile the the guy running the spec Miata is getting congratulated by the entire paddock for shaving a tenth off.
