I wonder if its possible that a team could get through all 5 engines in one weekend. Would that mean they start the first 5 races at the back of the grid?
What about cost, if a team does 5 engines, does the supplier provide more free? or is there a charge per unit
Lets assume there is a team that are a little stubborn about cooling requirements and are unable to make the compromise to aero, lets say that team blows an engine in each practice session and quali AND in the race, would this mean their engine bill could suddenly increase by a theoretical maximum factor of 20x (5 engines for each of the 20 race weekends)
Say Renault (for arguments sake) are the most expensive provider and charge 20 million euros per season for 5 engines, could this mean a team with a stubborn aero designer could be needing 400 million euros by year end
If every single human being in the world (7 billion) drank a fizzy drink that added 0.05 cents profit to the drinks maker that could be diverted to marketing, I reckon that would just about cover the bill
