Yes the FIA have handed the advantage to (6th and 13th) McLaren and have ruined the chances of (1st and 3rd) Red Bull.

I was at Stowe Apparently Ian was there too but we didn't bump into each other - I blame the free champagne!

Are McLaren the only team left in F1 that don't use team orders nowadays?
