The stepped Floor became mandatory for the 1995 Season.

That's right vekkuli, i refered to the reference plain, that was not correct. I meant the area of the plank, wich more or less would become the stepped floor from 1995 on.
In 1994, from or after spain, they started with the use of this "wooden plank" and the shorter diffusers.

Yes. Schumacher was disqualified from a Race later that Season for too thin Wooden Plank ( worn in the Race ) before They started using Titanic Particles for the Plank not to wear out so much.

After 1,5 hour of masking hell i managed to paint the dark blue color, i used a custom mix of tamiya acrylics for the dark blue. (Purple blue is Zero)
