San Marino GP 24/04/05 Post Race Fuel Drain on Car 3 - Jenson Button
The BAR car number 3, driver Jenson Button, was weighed after the race with 606.1 kg. To confirm, that the car number 3 has respected the minimum weight of 600 kg at all times during the race, the team was asked to drain all remaining fuel out of the car.
For this procedure the car's front end was lifted to allow all remaining fuel within the fuel cell to be drained completely. With this method 0.16 kg of fuel could be drained. The team was asked, whether this was all fuel on board the car and they declared it as empty.
