F1 Ferrari accused of cheating

This should be interesting to watch. Last year it was the flexible rear wing, the 'sliding' front wing and now we have the moveable floor.

I am confident that every car is cheating in one form or another. The cars are so sophisticated that there is no way to police the teams in every area. This is part of formula one racing and always has been. The teams will continue to find innovative yet not so legal ways to make their cars quicker. FIA is constantly trying to play catchup with the rules but the teams remain one step ahead most of the time.

Agreed that nothing will come of it. For instance, I believe their wheel disks are plainly "movable aerodynamic devices" since, if Renault's mass damper (which is isolated from air flow) is, how can these not be? Yet they persist.

If FIA cleared it then it should be no issue; all teams bend the rules a little; Chapman was a genius at creative rule interpretation....
McLaren's big issue is speed, or lack thereof....

LOL, what a surprise, his cars are one sec plus a lap slower against the ,what appears not to be pushing, Ferrari's and now good ol' Ronnie claims there must be something illegal. What will be illegal when his cars are starting to blow up again when it gets hot ?
