Wasn't Mercedes consistently saying their performance issues weren't due to the sidepods? The primary issue was the floor and having to run a higher ride height.

Assuming that was true, then it makes sense RB would want to go after the benefits of the zero pods if they can maintain floor and suspension performance.

If I was in the merc aero team and red bull made it work, it would resign out of shame

Read the article, it claims that it will be from the race in Japan

The article is wrong. It's not zeropods. They're just pedalling clickbait.
