Judges: Mercedes got unfair advantage

Mercedes did gain an "unfair sporting advantage" from its use of a 2013 Formula 1 car in the secret Pirelli test even though that had not been the original intention, claims the FIA International Tribunal. In its official decision on the matter, the International Tribunal explained that Mercedes and Pirelli had both acted in good faith in regards to the test, but that did not get around the fact that regulations had been broken. That is why it elected to give both Mercedes and Pirelli a reprimand , while also banning the Brackley-based team from taking part in July's young driver test at Silverstone
