Max's car having the rear wing changed...apparently a large crack according to Marko.

A way to get around parc ferme?
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

I would guess Bottas changed his wing in Mexico without penalty.
AFAIK if it's the same spec, then it's OK.

According to Adam Cooper, Albon's only hard set was damaged in their storage and FIA cannot replace them and he will not be able to race on them today

I'm sure it's all ok, I was just wondering if a team could get away with changes that way. Not big changes or the FIA would probably notice, but adding/removing a bit of wing. It was idle speculation, not an accusation.

Quite sure they would check the setting of the wing before they allow the change, then just check whether the wing is the same spec and is set up as before...

No VSC after Vettel retirement? I thought VSC(at least) is obligatory while car is being retrieved.

Interesting, after what happened in Sochi, it's not.
