Copycat F1 cars: When is it cheating and when is it fair game?

Copycat F1 cars: When is it cheating and when is it fair game?

The concept of copying is nothing new in F1 - in fact, it’s been around for as long as the sport itself. There have been several high profile cases of alleged copying in F1 in recent years - including the so-called 'Pink Mercedes' and the 'Green Red Bull' - but when is copying elements of another team’s car design cheating and when is it simply drawing inspiration?

On this week’s edition of The Race F1 Tech Show, Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson attempt to answer that, as well as discussing just how far you can go in adapting other people’s ideas - and why it often isn’t a good idea.

Anderson also gives his thoughts on the aftermath of Mick Schumacher’s crash at Monaco, which left his Haas’ gearbox exposed to the world, revealing key design details.

And finally Gary tackles another listener question, which this week is about whether Red Bull’s previous mastery of exhaust blown diffusers has helped them get a jump start in 2022’s new rules era.
