Charles Leclerc reveals Ferrari discussions over McLaren’s “controversial” wing
F♛errari have discussed McLaren's "controversial" rear wing interna💞lly, Charles Leclerc says.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc says Ferrari have discussed the “controversial” rear wing of F1 rival McLaren internally.
Ahead of this weekend’s S🍸ingapore Grand Prix, F1’s governing body the FIA confirmed they are “reviewing data and any additional evidence” that emerged over the Baku weekend of McLaren’s rear w✱ing.
Television footage from the Azerbaijan Grand Prix appeared to show a part of McLaren’s rear wing flexing up𝓀wards on the straights, prompting fresh scrutiny amid an ongoing flexi-wing row.
"Yes, [th🌺ere is] definitely a dialogue that we've already had," Leclerc told media including Motorsport in Singapore.
"I mean, I think Fred [Vasseur, Ferrari team principal] will go on that matter a bit more into detail, but from what Iܫ've been told, it's controversial to say the least. So, yeah. I'll leave that here and I'll let Fred comment on it a𝄹 bit further.”
Leclerc finished second behind 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri in Baku and admitt✨ed he was surprised by the strength of McLaren’s straightline ꦜspeed during the race.
"I mean it was a good move," the Monegasque said of Piastri’s race-winning overtake. "However, as I said when I ๊saw him going on the inside, I knew he was there. I knew it was an oppoꦚrtunity for him to get past, but I was not more worried than that.
"I knew that he could take the lead, but I also knew that I🦋 was꧟ at the beginning of the warm-up of the tyres, and I didn't want to push on them, so I didn't want to start going stupid in terms of how defensive I would get.
"However, I was wrong because obviously his straightline speed was really, really strong a🍸nd after that I never had the opportunity to pass again.
"I don't think on the attacks there was anything better I could have 🍸done. I could have done a better job defending. However, aꦅgain, I didn't know how quick they were on the straights after that.”
Speaking♔ in Thursday’s FIA press conference, Piastri insi🌱sted McLaren’s rear wing is “legal”.
"As long as it ജpasses all the tests - and we get tested a lot, it passes, so it is certainly🍰 not the magic ticket or magic bullet for why we're competitive,” he said. "It is legal, it passes all the tests, so I am pretty happy with it.”
Teammate168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lando Norris, meanwhi🌳le, said he is “prou⛄d” of McLaren’s dubbed ‘mini DRS’ trick.
“Everything's been tested, everything'🌞s legal,” he explained. We’re do🌸ing what we can, that's what Formula 1 is for – exploring everything within the rules. We've cleared all the tests and everything and FIA are happy.
“So now I'm proud, I'm happy with what the team are doing – they're pushi♔ng the limits and that's what you've got to do if you want to fight at the top and fight against peo🌊ple who are also known for doing such things and exploring every area possible.
“Now I'm more proud of the team for pushing every single area that we can. We've not been in situations where we cou▨ld do that in the past but now we're in that position so I'm very happy.
“It'🌼s actually a cool thing to see, I think, in my opinion.”
