https://www.grandprix.com/news/merce...-in-qatar.html

From said article:

Not true," a team source told Auto Motor und Sport. "The wing was not changed.

"The wing was rock solid anyway. You could have hung 100 kilos on it - so maybe Red Bull will ask for 105kg next time."




The only proof I have found about a wing change was the changed wing from the one that failed the drs gap inspection in Brazil, and this occured in Brazil.

Otherwise nothing else discussed wing changes at all.


Again it's most likely the Brazil top speed came from the new pu, especially if the rear wings were the same in Qatar, and there's absolutely no evidence that I can find that says it was a different wing.

It’s been reported by a few news outlets, but actual picture proof would be nice.

End of the day Saudi should be telling.

I certainly wish him well and that there is NO reason for him to be unable to be on the boards at all. The fact is though he was on the forums yesterday, which is great, BUT I have PM's NOV 8, and 9th, he has not responded to.

There's a lot of evidence now to point the finger at Mercedes using an illegal rear wing in Qatar, if a team is found to have been using such a part in race and it's proven with pictures then immediate disqualification should occur.

I'd like you to give a plausible reason on why he has not responded to my PM's, granted you don't know what it's about but the subject does to him.

Sure why not, let’s go see what the school boys think.

Using your rationale RB would have been disqualified for the rotating rear wing they used earlier this year.

I hope that is the case but will find out if he comes back, which I hope he does.

Honestly, you are still here so I don't buy your reasons unless you are saying he can't deal with it.

DQ them both then MKSixer wins the bet and starts PMing Autobacs for $$$.

Then BOT and PER fight it out for the last two races.

MKSixer, hope you are doing alright and have a speedy recovery. We miss you, (some of us ) around these parts.

Ok let me explain. You are implying Mksixer cannot and does not want to deal with two members here. I'm preety sure he is more than up to it. If you are here, so can he. Please confirm you understand

The race talking about the Merc rear wing.

Best line in the video: "if redbull haven't found conclusive evidence chances are someone on Twitter hasn't either". Hmm sounds familiar.
