The fact is several other drivers did a one stop without running into the weight issue and in the past, we have had drivers do almost the whole race distance on a set of tyres after switching to a hard after an early safety car(lap 2 or 3). Never in those cases has the car been underweight. This is a cock up by Mercedes and nobody else.
