New reports coming from the FIA in Paris are saying the noses submitted by the Red Bull team have been found to have a unique ducting system , allowing the crew member to channel air away from the arch section 450mm forward of the heel template on his shoe , to allow for more grip when running to the car , simply by lifting his eyebrows , looking surprised .
Several of the other teams expressed surprise at the Red Bull looking surprised when either of the drivers came in for a pitstop when they appeared ready for them .

Reports from Maranello are saying the Ferrari team plan to protest the Red Bull nose's flexibility , slot or not , more because it's red is too close to Corsa Rosso than because of excessive nostril flare .

It was a shocking decision at the time and cost Montoya the championship in 2003.Niente è vero, tutto è permesso

But is it Ferrari? Brawn GP had their DDD's given the OK, MGP had their W-duct given the OK. There's that name again... Ross Brawn!The world according to Taki Inoue: https://mobile.twitter.com/takiinoue/st ... 7249326080
Meeke had a big gap to Rossel after stage 3 (20 sec) at stage 4 had a puncture and now the gap to Rossel is just 2 sec Gryazin strangely slow,anybody now why?...
