The rear wing of McLaren’s F1 car has been a hot topic of conversation following the team’s victory at Baku last weekend.

“RacingNews365 can confirm that the rear wing has not been deemed illegal by the sport’s governing body - however the team must implement adjustments to control how much the element moves.”

I’m surprised FIA pushed McLaren to change their rear wing. I would assume FIA would take the same stance they took vis-a-vis McLaren’s front wing. Still, I think this will make the MCL38 slower on the straights without DRS, and that’s about it.

Isn’t this only affecting their very low downforce rear wing spec?
