Hello
My first impression is that the other teams are pissed because they did not think of it.
I am sure a new rule will be in place very soon to stop this.
We live we learn we apply.

FIA think they find a way of testing floor that will stop any team of cheating. They also think that this new way of testing and rules clarification will have an effect on top team that was cheating with that floor.

Last race, reporters said that Ferrari was realy not at the top for the race. Ferrari reply that Massa did mistake, and Kimi's engine problem, didnt alow them to push at max. Take note that the those who were using a moving floor, was illegal, and Ferrari was pointed as one of those team. Massa said that they didnt change nogthing to the car, theyr floor was built as per the rules. Lets see in next race if it was only 1 bad race for the red, or is it cause they cant cheat anymore with the floor of the car? Time will say, or we maybe never know.
