Aston Martin debuted a number of upgrades for its AMR22 car ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix on Friday, including design concepts that immediately drew comparisons to Red Bull's RB18 car.

The FIA revealed that it investigated the matter after noticing the similarities during routine pre-event checks, but determined that Aston Martin had followed the correct processes in designing the updates, thus complying with the regulations.

However, Red Bull responded with a statement stating that transferring its intellectual property would be a serious violation of the regulations.
