Nope, it was left up to the teams to decide. Apparently the weight of the system is enough of a detriment to ballast locating that some teams have elected against it. During the race they even mentioned one team has it on one car and not the other because of a dramatic difference in driver weights.

The technical discussion of the season will revolve around KERS and diffusers. I hope the race stewards all have lots of chill pills at their disposal, because they are gonna be put through some **** this year.

I also just read the FIA stewards findings in regards to the Toyota wing issue, Toyota said they tested the wing at double the FIA test weight and it was fine, the short sweet version of the response would be the FIA telling them that they don't know what they are doing then.

"It is suggested that Toyota F1 review and make adjustments to their in house testing proceure so as to avoid any future false positives leaving them afoul of the sporting regulations"

Is that the nicest worded "You're an *******" you have ever read or what? bahahahhaa
