There's no protest. Its media lies. McLaren & Ferrari confirmed there was no protest.. Ferrari said they wont pursue anything & Red Bull think it will be legal.
Not a big deal at all.

Of course if copying it in a hurry isn't that easy, then the FIA must deam it illegal because McLaren cannnot be allowed to win. Good idea Redbull dragged Ferrari into this. That way if it needed to be banned, then Todt can do just that.Ferrari are not invovled Mclaren have spoken to them and its turned out its just RBR stirring it.

But 6mph is a big advantage especialy in Bahrain with its 3 straights

So I guess its the same principle to produce more downfoce that Ferrari are rumoured to be using for their DDD (only Ferrari have a slit on the diffuser itself).if that slit is what makes the difference, then it should be easy to copy thus Redbull should drop the bullpoo.
