... [B]y Singapore, I would be quite surprised if Adrian Newey doesn't manage to re-engineer the RBR's floor to allow the droopy nose and still pass the new test.

I'll be the first to admit I was wrong. It took Newey until the first race after Singapore to get the droopy-flexy-nose-wing back in operation. But they did appear once again to be genuflecting.

The front wings, yes, but i think in Singapore you could still see that the front lip of the floor was very noticably flexing from those rear facing onboard shots. An aero part which has arguably just as many knock on effects as the front wing with these current cars... thing is, not every car has had a camera mounted that shows that part of the car so we can't say categorically that the other teams' floors are not doing the same. Perhaps Red Bull put their camera there to make a point!

And that's where you gotta give credit where credit is due... it certainly is not cheating if you can't get caught during any pre or post race tests. Red Bull has out manufactured everyone this year.

"I don't want to be part of a forum where everyone has differing opinions." Boom...
