Ferrari boss issues blunt verdict on Red Bull ‘bib’ controversy
Fred Vasseur's judgement on Red Bull 'bib' and McLaren 'mini DR🐎S' issues

Ferrari’s Fred Vasseur insists the FIA can be trusted to solve the Red Bull ‘bib’ controversy.
Red Bull admitted the presence of a device in th𒁏e cockpit of the RB20 which could change the height of the ‘bib’.
F1 forbids significant c🃏hanges to cars between qualifying and the grand prix, and Red Bull have denied breaking any rule.
Red Bull agreed to make changes after discussing it with the FIA 𝓀but that hasn’t satisfied McLaren CEO Zak Brown who has vented his frustration at🔴 the issue.
Now Ferrari team principal Vasseur has weighed in on the debate which hasꦡ engulfed this weekend’s F1 Unit﷽ed States Grand Prix.
“If RB really modified the car in parc ferme it would be more than cheating, it would be a huge thing,” Vasseur ཧtold .
“But I don't know❀ the details, the FIA will do its ཧjob.”
Although McLaren have made their annoyance clear at this latest technical controversy, Ferrari🌱 have reminded them that they were also at the centre of a dispute.
McLaren made changes to their rear wing after tal⛎ks with the FIA, after Oscar Piastri edged Charles Leclerc in Azerbaijan.
“The McLaren wing in Baku was not legal for me,” Vass💖eur stated.
Video footage of the McLaren rear✨ wing at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix prompted questions.
It was l🎉abelled ❀‘mini DRS’ for its ability to rotate and open the slot gap.
McLaren did not break any FIA rule but spoke to the FIA about how to avoid furthဣer issues, including this wee🧜kend in Texas, with their rear wings.
But clearly the Ferrari boss h🥃as not forgotten after m꧂issing out on a grand prix win via Leclerc.
McLaren lead the cons🀅tructors’ championship ahead of Red Bull and Ferrꦕari.
