what is that?
Here is an example. Think of like the standard maximum width of a diffuser to be 750mm plus or minus 1mm (example).. Some teams might have 749.9, other teams 750.9999... Then RedBull has 751.00056mm!

Not to say that is the thing that was disputed though.

I think they might work to higher resolutions than 1mm.

Unless the Mclaren guys have eyes that can determine μm differences I doubt anything like that is the case here anyway and Horner is just talking red bull.

I wouldn't put it past Horner to be talking bull, also the example the Ram gave was just an example. All he was saying is the redbull had their hole out side the limitations set.

"We had to run a version without those [diffuser] wings and found that it was even better than before," said Horner.
He's talking about some wings that needed to be removed, not a hole...

Being a Schumacher supporter I have the utmost respect for Adrian Newey, for so long it was only Adrian Newey designed cars beating Schumacher to more titles.

His efforts with Red Bull this year can only strengthen my respect for him and it's wonderful to see one man can still make a difference in an F1 team. I'm sure McLaren were very sorry to see him go.

I don't think you're giving enough credit to Rory Byrne or Ross Brawn. Schumacher hasn't won in a car not built by either!

I think their job was slightly easier, Adrian won with good drivers, Rory and Ross had one of the best to drive their hardware around.

In terms of car design, Adrian has done the better job. That '92 Williams virtually breathed.
