Teams fear exhaust saga not over yet
Formula 1's leading technical directors are not ruling out the prospect of arguments over the legality of designs that make use of exhaust gases dragging into the start of the season. Although the FIA made it clear earlier this year that it will not tolerate any aerodynamic exploitation from exhaust blowing this year, some teams are still pushing the limits to see what they are and are not allowed to do. The location and angles of the new periscope exhausts are strictly defined for 2012, but AUTOSPORT has learned that that has not stopped some outfits from trying to find ways of diverting the flow into other parts of the cars - like specially designed rear air ducts when they can then be reflowed over other aerodynamic devices.
