“The stewards reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video and determined that the video appeared to show that Car 4 moved before the start signal was given,” their report began.

“However, the FIA approved and supplied transponder fitted on the car did not indicate a jump start.

“Article 48.1 a) of the Formula One Sporting Regulations states clearly that the judgment of whether or not there was a jump start is to be made in accordance with the transponder, which did not show a jump start. In the circumstances, we took no further action

It does. He asked if people will "get away with it". They won't. 99.99999% it will work correctly. Nobody is going to test it / risk it.

The question was ‘if it’s faulty will people get away with it’.

You answered ‘you don’t know if it’s faulty’

That is not the answer to the question. The question that answers is ‘can you game the system with a faulty transponder’.

The answer to the question is actually yes. If the transponder is faulty the driver will get away with a jumpstart.
