Ignorami.

I may be standing for a long time...

seems a team may have been operating a cheat tea-tray mechanism. Who could it be?

I may have missed some online sarcasm, but I would suggest they're the most obvious culprit.

Here, I'm considered to be Brad Pitt, I guess where you are you're Arm Pitt...

Hmmm well that is an answer we might discover over the weekend if we see a massive performance drop for one team......

[thegreenhell]

According to Mark Hughes on the-race.com, the suspected team was discovered by the FIA and made to run without making the change in Singapore, so it's possible we've already seen the result of this. I imagine that any gains from this will be marginal, so any drop-off from not running it will be subtle and hard to detect from the outside.

Ruh roh....

I was honestly expecting it to be McL. If this is true and RB go even further back then the rest of the season will be very interesting,

Colour me surprised. Not.

Whatever team it is, if they've been doing it for a while it will be interesting to see if the FIA have the balls to apply a retrospective punishment because it's clearly illegal.

All of this nonsense is going to kill this sport. There needs to be retrospective punitive action or the viewers will lose confidence in what they see. How long has this been on the car? What is delta improvement for the device?

It’s crazy

[Snappy89]

Well I'll be. I didn't think they'd try and do something else dodgy but here we are.

[LHRFlightman]

Red Bull. Confirmed.

It's Red Bull, so expect no further action.

No. Definitely not as it turns out. RB cheating? Quelle surprise!

Madness. Out of interest; what would be the legitimate / non-illegal reason for having a device like this built into the car?
