Red Bull Alters Car Design After FIA Rule Clarification

The FIA has responded to suspicions of rule exploitation by Red Bull, leading to procedural changes ahead of the US Grand Prix.

  • Red Bull has made changes to their Formula 1 car following discussions with the FIA about potential rule breaches.
  • The controversy centers around a device that allegedly allows for ride height adjustments during parc fermé conditions, which is against regulations.
  • While Red Bull admits the device exists, they claim it is inaccessible once the car is fully assembled and ready to race.
  • The FIA has not found evidence of the device being used but has implemented new procedures to monitor compliance more closely.
  • The changes come as Red Bull trails McLaren in the constructors' standings, with six races remaining in the season.
