Try the german article that I linked.
Sounds clear, it's 30 mm longer, but it was homologated like that so it's FIA's fault and they can't penalize them. When trying to write a clarification they found some minor details also for other competitors, but 3 cm is massive if you ask me.

@reff92 Compared to previous years there has not been a single exclusion of a manu team for a few years now. People will remember Focus (in Monte around 2000), 206 in Argentina with water pump or Focus 06 in Portugal getting punished for 3 vs 4mm thick rear windows. Compare that with 30 mm longer rear wing!




But minimum height is 1270mm, which is around the height of Porsche Cayman and a bit less than 992. Abarth 124 is 3-4 cm lower and Alpine is around 2 cm lower. Both BMW M2 and M4 are aroud 12cm...
