The Immortal Dragon wrote:Red Bull passes new flexi-wing testI'm not surprised; the fact that Adrian Newey was not at all phased by these new tests indicated that he was 100% confident the RB will would pass scrutiny! Hopefully we can now get back to racing instead of all the bullsh*t legality of parts that has plagued F1 this season!

Or did RBR modify their wings/underbody to pass the new test?I doubt that anything was changed; I believe it's simply because Spa plays into the hands of the teams that have got their "F Duct" system working the best; e.g. McLaren!
