Is Ferrari the only constructor to have held a seat on the WMC, F1's regulatory body? If Bernie is the F1 teams' representative, why is there even a need for Ferrari to have a place? On the grounds of impartiality, should the constructor's seat be rotated on an annual basis?
Yes

Well put it this way, it would be comparable to Glaxo having a privileged position in detriment to their other competitors sitting on either the FDA or MHRA in the UK and having an input into regulatory policy for drug testing before introduction into the market.

I don't disagree with the idea of rotating the role, it's just that I have never heard of any complaints from any of the teams. I don't know the history behind this, or how the role is organized, but if they didn't believe they were being properly represented I'm sure we would have heard about it by now.
