F1’s governing body will respond to the saga involving Red Bull’s bendy Barcelona rear wing by further intensifying the static scrutineering tests, according to a report on Wednesday.
The specialist publication Auto Motor und Sport claims that, after viewing the footage from David Coulthard’s rearward-facing camera in Spain, the FIA’s Charlie Whiting is concerned that the wing of the RB3 is indeed flexing illegally.
A new static test, requiring the development of bespoke equipment, is being devised for the upcoming Canadian grand prix, and for the time being Whiting has apparently ordered that both Coulthard and teammate Mark Webber’s cars be again fitted with the rearward-facing onboard cameras in Monaco this weekend.
