Uneven surface, Red Bull downplays the impact of the FIA ​​decision

Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko said he is convinced that the FIA's decision to ban the use of any type of holes in the bottom of Formula 1 cars will not be a handicap for the Austrian team at the Canadian GP.

The world champion team will be forced to modify the RB8 following a clarification from the FIA ​​this week. Several rival teams had considered an official protest at the Monaco GP, won by Mark Webber.

Marko downplayed speculation about the impact of the FIA's decision: “We didn't plan to use that fund in Montreal anyway,” Marko said. “We had prepared a different configuration with an ad hoc version of the fund. So there will be no need to modify the cars for Canada. In any case, the FIA's decision also concerns the other teams, not just Red Bull and in any case our preparation for the race was not disturbed by this decision."
