He has never been that far behind a teammate including the likes of Kimi and MS. Simple, the car is developed around Alonso and Felipe has to make adjustments.

That really would be pushing the boundaries for a part of the car that is supposed to be rigid.

Looking at the front of the Red Bull, though, the endplates are much closer to the ground on one side than the other.The BBC footage from the Williams on board camera (I wish Red Bull had one there!) showed much more suspension travel that I expected in an F1 car - which may just be due to the nature of the Hungaroring.Could what you have seen of the rear floor just be extreme (in F1 terms) body roll due to soft Hungaroring suspension settings?

The proof of the pudding would be very easy to check out: I'll bet there are signs of rubbing on the undersides of the wing tips.

Maybe it won't drop so low because they'll be less downforce in the wet? Wonder how the front wing will operate in standing water, bit like a rain scoop?
