Ferrari has always exploited loopholes w/ Brawn/Todt/Byrne; it's very surprising that they didn't this year. I guess you really need experience to find these kind of things.
You usually wait to protest after the race so you can exclude people from the results (due to illegal cars). If the teams lodged a protest before a race, and opponents then change their car to 'legal' status, there is still a chance for them to get points.
As for the political drama... it's been enough where I have dropped a significant amount of interest in F1.
I was watching the Malaysian race and Steve Matchett was mentioning it was illegal to cover the cars w/ anything... so Toyota had maybe 5-7 mechanics blocking a TV view to their diffuser.
