McLaren boss Andrea Stella has accepted the Formula 1 governing body’s verdict to close investigations into the Red Bull front bib adjuster and is ready to “move on” from the debate.
Ahead of the United States Grand Prix, it was revealed that Red Bull had a device in their car that could adjust the front bib height, leading to concerns about potential illegal modifications. The FIA decided to seal the device to prevent any rule violations. Despite McLaren CEO Zak Brown’s push for further investigation, the FIA has officially closed the case, as confirmed by FIA Single Seater Director, Nikolaz Tombazis. Red Bull Team Principal, Stella, expressed trust in the FIA’s decision-making process and emphasized the expertise of the technical department in handling such matters. Tombazis acknowledged the complexity of dealing with technical disputes in Formula 1, citing the challenges posed by the human element and competitive loyalties. Although the situation raised questions about the difficulty of detecting unauthorized modifications, all parties involved seem willing to put the issue to rest and focus on the upcoming race at the US Grand Prix.
