Red Bull Accuses McLaren of Using Illegal Car

McLaren Risks Disqualification

Red Bull has accused McLaren of running an illegal car at the Brazilian Grand Prix. The accusation comes after Red Bull noticed that McLaren's car was running much lower to the ground than usual. This gives McLaren an advantage in terms of speed, but it also makes the car more likely to bottom out and damage the floor. The FIA has launched an investigation into the matter, and if McLaren is found to have violated the regulations, they could be disqualified from the race.

McLaren Denies Wrongdoing

McLaren has denied any wrongdoing and claims that their car is legal. They argue that the car is simply running lower to the ground due to the smooth track surface at Interlagos. The FIA is expected to make a decision on the matter shortly.

Red Bull's Concerns

Red Bull is concerned that McLaren is gaining an unfair advantage by running an illegal car. The team has been struggling for pace all season, and they believe that McLaren's illegal car is giving them an unfair advantage. Red Bull has called on the FIA to take action against McLaren, and they are hoping that the team will be disqualified from the race.

FIA Investigation

The FIA is currently investigating the matter. They are looking into McLaren's car to see if it is in compliance with the regulations. The FIA is expected to make a decision on the matter shortly.

Potential Consequences

If McLaren is found to have violated the regulations, they could be disqualified from the race. This would be a major blow to McLaren's championship hopes. The team is currently third in the Constructors' Championship, and a disqualification would drop them down to fourth.
