FIA's Single Seater Director Nikolas Tombazis has said that Red Bull's bib design was not a big issue. The Austrian team's device could help it adjust the ride height of its car during race weekends.

Adjusting the ride height would help the car generate more downforce. However, the reigning world champion said it had the device at the front of the car, but did not use it once assembled.

Ahead of the ongoing 2024 United States GP weekend, it was reported that Red Bull would work with the sport's governing body regarding the issue. Speaking with Sky Sports, Tombazis said:

"At the previous race [Singapore GP], it was pointed out to us that certain designs could allow a change of the height of the front of the car, which some people call a bib, in parc fermé, and we didn't have any indication or any proof that anybody was doing something like that.
