Explaining Mercedes’ non-compliant upgrade

Sky’s Tedജ Kravitz said: “You are not allowed front wing furniture to direct air flow into any direction that you want.
“♍What Mercedes have done with their new front 𒊎wing is to say: ‘These are just front wing slot gap separators that are not designed to capture air and push it outboard!’
“It looks like they are.
“This is where the questions from the other t⛄eams have come from.
“They say: ‘These are slot gap separators masquerading as airflow co🎐nditioners to push the outwash’.
“An accidental benefit?
“What the FIA cannot do is guarꦚantee that stewards will agree when they get to the circuit.”
