Therefore, seeing as the car did not stop and the car was found to be within the 600kg weight limit with the neccesary fuel then clearly BAR did not break the rules.

BAR says the car needs the extra fuel to run. ok, with that being said, is it possible that BAR setup the car to NEED this extra fuel, so if they got caught with the extra tank they would have a EXCUSE for the extra tank which wasnt in the blue prints given to FIA which would seem like they were trying to HIDE something.
do you honestly think BAR cant have the car running without the extra fuel tank?? seems like after the ban is lifted they are going to have to run the car withou the extra tank. so if its possible to run the car after the ban without the fuel tank, im sure it was possible to run the car before without the fuel tank aswell.
so with all that being said, was the extra tank really needed??
i highly doubt it, a team spending MILLIONS of dollars on development cant find a solution for this "problem".
anyone think yet of who might of tipped off the stewards about the extra tank??
heres what it think might of gone down, and its not far fetched either.
when the whole Button wanting BMW thing went on, after it was all settled for this season, it was said that if Button scored a certain amount of points BAR would be able to retain him, though if he failed to get the certain amount of points then there would be nothing holding back BMW from signing Button. so with that being said, Button knew of the extra tank, knew it was illegal, told someone from outside F1, and they slipped that to the stewards, which then lead to a FIA appeal and the banning of the BAR for 2 races which means Button wont be getting the points needed for BAR to retain him which means he is FREE to go to BMW.
so if there is any truth to this whole thing, and Button ends with BMW. who do you think is going to partner Button?? now dont be so quick to say Webber, to be honest is hasnt proven himself yet. he might of looked good with the Jag, but he has yet to win my vote with BMW.
