The soap opera surrounding the Red Bull Racing and Mercedes rear wing has been running for weeks now and since the qualifying session for the Qatar Grand Prix the FIA have introduced stricter tests. According to Anthony Davidson it's all down to a certain part of the rear wing, he explains in the video above.
According to the Sky Sports pundit it is not the deflection of the rear wing that is the problem, because on the video it is clearly visible that the rear wing itself does not deflect that much. In the video you can see that it is all happening at the inside of the rear wing.
