Formula One: ‘Deformation Was Clearly Visible,’ Says Helmut Marko On Mercedes’ Front Wing Dispute

Canadian Grand Prix: The 2024 Canadian Grand Prix saw Mercedes replace the front wings of the car. The newly placed wings were seen ‘bending noticeably,' which is against the rules of the sport as it 'ensures better aerodynamics.'

Following this incident, Red Bull reportedly filed a complaint with the FIA to ensure fair racing, a fact that has now been confirmed by the team’s advisor Helmut Marko.

“They have a new front wing, and on the TV pictures from Montreal, you can clearly see that Russell and Hamilton's wings are bending noticeably. However, the wings had the necessary strength when they were approved. That doesn't surprise me. I don't know how often we had to check our wings,” said Marko to OE24, an Austrian newspaper.
