Red Bull boss Chrstian Horner has slammed the FIA’s ‘very unfair’ plan to ban porpoising, whilst also taking aim at fierce rivals Mercedes. The Silver Arrows have endured a number of porpoising problems throughout 2022, in a campaign of struggles for the constructors’ champions and their cars.
The issue within the Mercedes vehicle has caused chaos for their star man Lewis Hamilton, who has since suffered with back pain. After Hamilton had to be helped from his car due to the injuries last week, the FIA have decided to come down hard on the problem that has plagued a number of teams this campaign.
As a result, the governing body has imposed a strict limit on “vertical oscillations”, warning there will be punishment for those teams that do not comply.
