Red Bull must prove suspension strength

The FIA stewards have asked Red Bull Racing to verify "the integrity of the suspension" of the RB4 to show that it should not be deemed "of dangerous construction", following David Coulthard's problems in the Friday morning session in Malaysia. The Scotsman ran off the track, possibly with some kind of steering problem, and the car then ran over a kerb. This caused further damage, with the right front suspension breaking and the car ending up in a gravel trap on the opposite side of the road.
