Williams have revealed that the FIA have banned the reactive ride height system which was pioneered by Lotus.
Last November, during Formula One's Young Driver test in Abu Dhabi, it emerged that Lotus were running a reactive ride system, which is aimed at increasing stability and aerodynamic performance.
Lotus pioneered the system with Ferrari revealing during their Wrooom! event earlier this month that they were working on developing their own reactive ride height system.
However, reigning World Champion's Red Bull Racing say that while it is "interesting", they have yet to go down that route.
"It's like all of these things, it's about how they work and how they are integrated in the car," team boss Christian Horner told Autosport.
"Things have to work as a package rather than as individual components.
"It appears to be an interesting concept but I'm the wrong person to be commenting on it."
And Red Bull's decision not to rush the system could be the right call as, according to Williams, the reactive ride system has "just" been banned by the FIA.
On Friday, speaking on The Flying Lap with Peter Windsor, Williams' chief operating officer Mark Gillan said: "The FIA have just banned that particular type of system... from a cursory look it looks as though they are aiming to ban that type of system."
Other reports state that the teams were informed of the ban by the FIA on Friday.
Good news for Red Bull, not so much for Lotus and Ferrari.
