The FIA insists it will not be backing down on its clampdown on flexi floor and porpoising in F1 despite resistance from teams. Full story with all the details:
In the wake of driver complains about the safety implications of excessive car bouncing, motor racing’s governing body introduced a raft of measures aimed to trying to eradicate the phenomenon.
While some teams have welcomed the FIA’s intervention, others have been annoyed at its actions – and believe the governing body should have no right to dictate how teams set up their cars. In a statement, the FIA said it was absolutely resolute that the porpoising was a ‘significant safety matter’, so there could be no change of direction with its plans.
The FIA also fears that, as teams pile on improvements for their 2023 cars, the increased downforce could trigger greater problems next year.From the Belgian Grand Prix, the FIA has reaffirmed it is sticking to a two-pronged attack in a bid to sort the issue.
