Cheating ❌ Trickery ✅ The FIA say there was some stretching, but not breaking of the regulations in 2022 when it came to flexi-floors. F1
A group of loophole-finding rule busters had been used to sniff out potential grey areas in the new 2022 Technical Regulations, but a part they seemingly missed was flexi-floors.
But, ahead of the Spa Technical Directive, there were also hints from the FIA that some teams had been stretching the rules to their very limit with the design of their floors, prompting additional flexibility checks.
Ultimately 15mm was the figure settled on, Tombazis saying the teams will quickly forget the good done for them before in such situations. “We try to be as even-handed as we can, and we definitely don’t look at benefitting one more than the other or anything like that. But inevitably, the psychology of being in a competition is such that it makes you think always that somebody is out to get you.
