Does this mean they have to repair it, cos I think I read they're not allowed to use spare cars anymore?

What I think you heard James is that they are not allowed to have a spare care all made up and ready to go anymore like they used to do

Now they have to either use the spare shell and out it all in or fix his old one

Hope this helps

Who needs telemetry when you can tell by watching pictures on tv

By the way, who was running full fuel loads, hard tyres and testing out different strategies and aero packs/gear ratios/damper settings etc?

Or did they all just turn up and go as fast as possible straight away
