Static tests and on-board cameras will be in use from 15 JuneLewis Hamilton has questioned advantage gained by Red BullFormula One is to introduce new tests to ensure teams are not
BREAKING the rules by using flexible rear wings. The issue was raised by
Lewis Hamilton during the Spanish
Grand Prix, where he questioned the advantage Red Bull may have gained from using what he called a “bendy” rear wing.
What are described as “moveable aerodynamic parts” have long been banned. However, teams always attempt to push the boundaries of these rules and wings that could flex under load may reduce drag on straights, increasing straight-line speed. After qualifying in
Spain where he took pole, Hamilton suggested Red Bull were managing to get round the rigorous tests on movement of wings when the cars are stationary.
