I seem to recall, sometime last year, someone posted on here about the McLaren F1 team, and a comment by Mercedes, that the engine, once up to speed and over a certain amount of revs, did not rely on the spark plugs for ignition.

Does anyone remember that, and if so, how does that fall in the light of the issue Vettel had????

There was something along those lines written somewhere but it's inconclusive in this case because RBR use Renault engines not Mercedes.
