Mercedes’ front-wing design has caught the attention of some in the pit-lane.
Red Bull’s motorsport advisor, Helmut Marko, believes that other Formula 1 teams will closely watch the results of scrutineering at the Spanish Grand Prix regarding Mercedes’ front-wing design. The Brackley team switched to a more conventional-looking front-wing in Canada, which appeared to show some flex during on-track sessions. Despite passing FIA checks, teams are aiming to incorporate some level of flexibility in their wings to enhance downforce. Marko acknowledged the situation, citing past experiences with ‘flexi-wing’ checks on Red Bull’s cars. While there was no protest against Mercedes in Canada, Marko emphasized the importance of scrutineering in upcoming races to ensure fair competition among all teams.
