Formula 1 teams look set to face tougher flexi wing tests from the Spanish Grand Prix in June in a further FIA clampdown, The Race has learned
“Formula 1 teams are facing tougher flexi wing tests from the Spanish Grand Prix in June, as the FIA cracks down on front wing tricks. The FIA has issued a draft technical directive to strengthen the flexi wing tests, reducing flexibility by one third. This will require teams to modify their front wing designs to meet the new requirements. Teams like McLaren and Mercedes have been using flexi wing tricks to balance their cars, but the new tests aim to level the playing field. The new rules will come into effect on June 1 at the Spanish Grand Prix, impacting teams’ aero elasticity strategies. The changes mark a significant development in the ongoing battle for performance and compliance in Formula 1.”
