Well, he may have and they edited that out to avoid appearing pedantic. I have a little first-hand experience to call on when I say this; the print/digital media are not reknowned for attention to detail and accuracy are they!
And why let the facts get in the way of a good story! |

I guess what I am trying to say is that with the amount of liberty the online media take with the truth, if Debae had in fact corrected them then they could simply have re-worded their question to be correct when they wrote the article and kept Debae's answer the same. Conspiracy??? |

Personally, I doubt it. It could have been a telephone interview on a bad line, and if Didier wasn't hanging off every word they said, he may not have picked up on the "discrepancy". That's just the way these things are sometimes, but isn't that how good conspiracy theories start out in the first place?

I enjoyed all three races. Good clean racing.
Why was Booth allowed to switch cars? |

Isn't that unfair against the drivers with smaller budgets who can't switch cars?
In most series spare cars aren't allowed. |

What happens in other series if a driver is sick or injured? They often get a fill in. In this case the fill in just happened to be someone who normally drives. But his car had died. Also it was pre race, not during a race.

we didn't stop people changing cars but added, "No points shall be awarded to any Driver who competes in any race in a vehicle other than the vehicle in which that Driver commenced Qualifying. Where a Driver did not participate in Qualifying, the competing vehicle that the Driver uses to start his first Race shall be the eligible vehicle. " |
