Why is Ferrari's engine legality always being questioned?

Why is Ferrari's Formula 1 engine being scrutinised? How did Racing Point find out about Renault's brake bias system? Is Sebastian Vettel any good at car development? Our ex-F1 technical director answers these questions and more

This continuous innuendo about Ferrari and its power unit also annoys me.

Mercedes had without doubt the best power unit in 2014 and '15 and then Ferrari started to catch up, but Ferrari never really made much noise about it.

It seems that now rivals are asking questions, but sometimes that is just to clarify a grey area. If it is a grey area and the FIA says 'no, you can't go there' then they will clarify it and Ferrari may have to back off a bit.
