FIA clarification has no impact on Red Bull says Horner

By on

Christian Horner from Red Bull Racing has responded to the FIA's clarification on ride height systems by saying "It has absolutely no impact on the specification of our car", in an interveiw with our colleagues at 'autosport'.

After excellent performances in the first three qualifing sessions of the 2010 season, the RB6 has been at the forefront of accusations from other teams suggesting that the Red Bull car has some sort of ride height system on the 2010 challenger. However, after declaring the RB6 legal to race on Sunday, the FIA deemed any such system illegal.

With the Red Bull Racing car being at the centre of such controversy, Christian Horner has responded in an interveiw with 'autosport' by saying, "No. The car that we will take to China will be exactly the same mechanically as it was in the first three races. It has absolutely no impact on the specification of our car."

"I don't know what they have on their cars, so all I know is that it has no impact on Red Bull, despite suggestions to the contrary."

"Fundamentally, we've got a fast car. The guys have done a good job and it's inevitably one of those things that people perhaps make accusations when you are running competitively," he said. "But I take it as a compliment. I'm sure if we were running 14th, similar accusations wouldn't be made."
