Once every team denied involvement I was fairly certain nothing would come out of it. The FIA embarrassed themselves yet again

And if they didn't look into the allegations, they'd be called a Mercedes/Wolff lapdog. I don't see any problems with looking into allegations. That's their job.

I agree with this, it was a no win for anyone so the least you could do is stick to the process. All they've done is promote an issue and leave a shitload of unanswered questions.

The original FIA statement didn't even name any names. It were the Wolffs who issued statements along the lines of "We are being investigated and how dare they!"

What's with condemning any form of investigation in recent years seemingly everywhere? Seems like everyone must make up their mind after an allegation instantly and everyone saying "Hold up, let's look into this" is immediately victim of a shitstorm.
