any time a crane is on circuit (i.e in front of barriers) then its a VSC to cover themselves for what happened to Bianchi, where previously it was up to the driver how fast they thought they could get through waved yellow flags (and get away with it) .
got to hope ferrari's 2017 car will be competitive otherwise the team will just implode
Forgot that it was an engine issue that caused it so it's unlikely they could've rolled it back through the gap in the barrier. So I guess the crane was necessary.
in theory there is a rule that all cars must be able to be placed into neutral which disengages the rear wheels so it can always be rolled back - but i think that may have changed with the new hybrids jiggerypokery......
