Ferrari Doesn't make the rules. Their participation (or lack of) did
not keep a rule change or course change from being made. FIA decided
to keep the rules and the course the same. They could have made the
same decision if Ferrari was in the room and agreed to the change. If
you don't like the decision that was made, blame FIA not Ferrari.
That's like blaming the horse that won the derby because your horse
got disqualified.
