    Whilst there’s loads of camera’s about, they don’t have one set up exactly in line with each of the twenty start positions. Doing so would require a lot of effort and reviewing the footage is arguably more subjective that simply just having a sensor at an arbitrary point. Nothing is perfect but the sensor is a least in theory consistent.

      The camera that showed that his wheel was outside the box was his on-board camera and of those there is one for every car. But teams cannot protest this because the ruling said that video evidence was used, therefore there is no new evidence even if the stewards just didn’t look properly.
