Marko does have a good point (cringe!). Ferrari have been using a similar system that Red Bull employs.

I didn´t care about RBR either... but this thread is pretty pathetic if it's based solely on that article. It's only about Marko (a reasonable man ) saying stuff and Ferrari denying them.

The only thing we know for sure is that RB got busted in Canada. And that Marko is a moron.......

you would think that F1 (FIA) would have it on all cars an adjustable switch in the spot of the ride height adjusters

Red Bull found itself last weekend having to deny suggestions that it breached the sport's regulations by having a system on its car that could adjust the ride height without the use of tools.

I'm going to need more than the word of Helmut Marko before I accept that Ferrari are/were cheating. Marko's team were actually caught by the FIA. Ferrari are merely being accused by another team, and a team that has been repeatedly asked to change their car. Not exactly "busted" as you put it.

I'm sure these teams aren't the only ones and I'm half expecting McLaren to be busted any time soon lol.

Cheaters, all of 'em.

It wouldn't surprise me if other teams, Ferrari included, have or had similar devices but until the FIA confirms it, Red Bull are the only team to have been proven to have an illegal adjuster on their car. So it's boots away as far as I'm concerned.

Yet another journalist who doesn't know what "refute" means

Ferrari are cheating ? Prove it...or shut up

I'm on Pino's side

I didn't really worry about this story until you said that. Pino's usually wrong so perhaps there's something in it after all

That's because Red Bull is just some simple drink, and Ferrari is so much more... With that said, Red Bull is just jealous because Ferrari seems to have a better car on a couple of circuits. Have they proven anything? No.

I'm usually wrong as well, and two negatives equal a positive, so we should be alright

Given that Red Bull have now won a race (Monaco) and finished on the podium (on the road - Germany) with cars that had "illegal" parts on them within a week of those results, I'd keep quiet if I was them. Mind you this is probably just a diversion tactic.

And Ferrari have been cheating since 2010. It's a brilliant device called Fernando Alonso.

You trust the faeces that come from the lying mouth of Marko?

No, I was being facetious! My point is that I don't trust anyone in F1. Red Bull have been the team to beat for the past 2 years (could've been 3 if it wasn't for those Brawn paper towel "cheaters"), and now there's a glaring spotlight on them. Red Bull have not been disqualified from any race nor has there been a protest from another team. Why? Because Red Bull are within the regulations.

How did Brawn cheat?

Brawn could've had a long comfortable career as a coach, and director at Ferrari as opposed to the hell he has been through (that is Mercedes). I didn't pretend to know how far ahead from the field they started as Brawn, at least he got JB a title with Brawn F1 Although I think he could have given it to Rubens, being the elder-statesman. But either (Rubens) or Bunsen) would've won the wdc if he had someone like Jaques as a teammate. Scrub bro's

They didn't. That's why I placed the word cheaters in quotations. The same exact complaints about Red Bull being cheats today were being said about Brawn in 2009.

Brawn had a clever design! brawntoaster.jpg
