McLaren’s CEO Zak Brown says aspects of Red Bull’s explanation of its bib height adjustment device “don’t stack up”.
“In the numerous correspondence we have with the FIA, this part came up and we have agreed a plan going forward.” “Why would you design it to be inside the car, when the other nine other teams design it to be outside the car?” he said.“They chose their words very carefully, saying “when the car is fully assembled”, but you’re allowed to not have the car fully assembled in parc fermé when you’re working on driver comfort.
“I think it needs to be a very thorough investigation because, if you touch your car from a performance standpoint, in or after parc fermé, that is a black-and-white material, substantial breach, which comes with massive consequences,” he said. “When you see cleverly worded comments like ‘You can’t do it when it’s fully assembled’, but I know the car isn’t always fully assembled, and then the FIA feels they need to put a seal on it, why would the FIA need to put a seal on something if it wasn’t accessible?
