Everything I'd heard was that AM were in the minor category and RB in the major one.
I think that was the initial leak, yes. But reports have been revised in the last week to both in the minor one, resulting in various sources trying to equate $$$ to time on the track (which is ludicrous). Horner's protestations of innocence now look a little silly. But then the tit-for-tat bickering over the last few years has made them all look silly. And the last thing the sport now needs is the inevitable appeal process. But it has rather made its own bed...

Yeah I mean I was fairly confident that the rumours would come to be (roughly) true, and never really understood why Horner decided to go on the counter-attack. Regardless of whether they breached the limits or not surely the best thing is to say that people should wait for the official verdict. But then unlike most top TPs, I'm not in the shit-flinging business.
But yeah, the FIA once again coming out looking the worst of the bunch (IMO) and likely setting a precedant for teams breaching the limits assuming the (potential) gains outweigh the (potential) punishments.

It's ridiculous that there's nothing outlined in terms of repercussions of breaching the limits. Especially in a sport where there's a significant amount of bending the rules to breaking point.
