Flexiwings 2024

[Farnborough]

I understand it to be considered as "movable aerodynamic surface" that proven by its specific construction to facilitate that movement.

As people have described "grey" or debatable as to its inclusion.

Clearly, to design that characteristic into the component for the gain it was targeting, is covered by that wording. Loosely maybe, but definitely under some level of control that necessary "discussion" with McL team.

But not hard in definite and absolute limit, like the other two incident given as examples.

I don't think there was a TD or rule change on the RW . FIA just told McLaren to change their wings

Exactly, TD 34 is very clear on that matter. FIA looked the other way for show and extra profit I imagine (they get a share of the yearly income)

FIA are not serious people.

They DQ Russell for being a bit underweight, DQ Ferrari for 1mm plank wear. Then MCL shows up with a wing that opens 30% when it's not supposed to and whatever, too late to DQ post race.

It's always been like that. If parts get approved pre- and post-race there's very little chance a DQ is given if all the tests were ok. FIA simply had to react already during Spa FP1 or FP2, when race sim runs were made, flap tips going up and the whole trailing edge going 20mm down is a total joke
