This week, the FIA issued a statement to say that it had investigated the reports and that McLaren's wings were legal. Asked at Friday's press conference about this statement, Vasseur said, “I think there's some kind of confusion between what happened with the front wing and the rear wing. The front wing, we all agree, could be a grey area because in the DT, the first paragraph of the DT, says you can't design a part of the car with the intention of deforming it. Intent is hard to deal with.”
What about McLaren's rear wing?
Last weekend, televised images showed part of McLaren's rear wing flexing upwards on the straight. Despite this, McLaren passed all the tests. As for Vasseur, he's still not entirely convinced by the design: “The story of the rear wing is completely different because on the article, you also have maximum deflection, and that's black or white. It's not gray, dark gray or light gray. It's black and black. And for me, it's clear.”
