    There should be a precendent! If something comes off the track and damages a car through no fault of the team, they should be able to repair. Why penalize the driver for an environmental condition.

        Drain cover incidents are nothing new (sadly) but history seems to fall to two categories: incidents with not as much damaged and requiring no restricted parts, or ones that happened during the race with no opportunities for repair anyway.
