Formula 1 to close Red Bull loophole?

Formula 1 bosses will reportedly soon outlaw controversial engine settings being used by Red Bull.

The issue arose during the German Grand Prix last weekend and senior officials have now had a meeting on the problem.

They are not happy that the Red Bull computing seems to be able to apply a traction control-style that limits wheelspin when exiting a corner.

Red Bull were earlier today cleared by race stewards for their use of this engine map at Hockenheim but it is expected that a new rule will be implemented to prevent further use of the technology.
