How Formula 1 teams have jumped upon a floor loophole.
"Formula 1's rule book has expanded massively over the years, and has got increasingly more complicated as new regulations have been added or evolved.
One consequence of a constantly changing rule book is that sometimes rules can end up contradicting each other – or a clause aimed to stamp out a certain design gets made irrelevant.
This is something that happened with the 2017 floor rules, as a regulation originally intended to stop teams exploiting holes in the floor was made inconsequential."
