The FIA intervenes following intense scrutiny of McLaren's controversial rear wing design, which rival teams claim breaches aerodynamic regulations.
McLaren has come under intense scrutiny following the Azerbaijan Grand Prix for it's rear wing. Specifically, the contentious 'mini-DRS' feature has been accused of flexing under high aerodynamic load, allegedly breaching aerodynamic regulations. The FIA has now stepped in and asked the Woking-based squad to make changes, according to a report from Motorsport.com.
Leading up to the Singapore Grand Prix weekend, Red Bull's Sergio Perez bluntly commented:'It's clear that it's out of the regulation. It's an illegal car. But it seems like, it is allowed. I'm very surprised.'Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc also claimed that the design was 'controversial.''From what I've heard, it's controversial to say the least.
