Williams ?just wants diffuser clarity?

Williams technical director Sam Michael insists that the team is seeking clarity on whether or not 'hot-blowing' exhaust blown diffusers are legal, rather than pushing for the system to be banned. Williams played a part in triggering FIA technical delegate Charlie Whiting's decision to ban the system in the build-up to this race, a move that was subsequently put on hold subject to Technical Working Group discussions next month. But despite believing that the concept, in which the exhaust continues to be blown while the driver is off the throttle to maximise downforce under braking and at corner entry, is illegal, the team is willing to continue to develop its system if the FIA deems it permissible.
