Tombazidis è unleashed, qualcuno non deve essere contento del dominio totale RB

Teams found ways that the floor plank doesn't wear out too much (insulating material between chassis and plank, or with fastening screws in the plank).
FIA want to stop these plank tricks by outlining clearer rules in this region
TD039 (introduced summer 2022) has been modified to attempt to address the grey areas the FIA see teams exploiting.
Also want to clamp down on flexible front and rear wings. At the front the issue is the entire wing assembly flexing relative to the car. At the rear it is the planes of the wing flexing relative to the endplates.
(As rumoured) AMR front wing twisted too much at the mounting point to the nose
Toto Wolff said that AMR already had to go a step back and now it's interesting who has to improve as well and how important it will be for lap time
Most teams say they are clear but in reality a lot of teams used the FIA measurements in Monza
Hass has to change the rear wing, Williams something at the underfloor
Rumours say that at Mercedes the rear wing could be in the focus, RBR floor
anonymous engineer says that the effect of the flexi-wing-TD (TD018) is bigger than the underfloor TD (modified TD039)
Because if you have to change the underfloor you max loose a bit of downforce.. if however the front winged flexed than the aero was designed for it, you risk not only loss of down force but also balance problems (AMR is not mentioned, but that's been their problem obviously before summer break)
