Red Bull team prinicipal Christian Horner expects the FIA to allow a hole in the floor of his car to remain after protests from rival teams.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has said that he is confident the FIA will rule that a hole in the floor of the car is legal.

Rival teams raised the issue at the Monaco Grand Prix but never really made a protest as Mark Webber raced to victory on the streets of Monte Carlo.

Horner admitted that the design was a little radical but that there are many grey areas in the laws governing the sport that are "open to interpretation".

"The rules are written in such a way that they are open to interpretation and our interpretation of that particular rule was accepted by the scrutineers, by the technical delegate and the other teams got a little bit agitated," Horner told Sky Sports F1.

"But we were always confident that our car complied fully with the regulations."

Horner, 38, expects a decision to be made by next weekend's Canadian Grand Prix.
