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.
The lying hounds changed it, take it from me.

Take it from you? A Max fanatic that's so heavily biased you can't even make rational arguments. You're the last person to be listened to when it comes to anything that doesn't benefit Max & Redbull.

M5Rick: Mercedes wing is illegal!

FIA develops new test and Mercedes wing still passes.

M5Rick: Oh uh well... they must have changed it. I know they did because my years of watching F1 has provided me with more expertise than anyone in the F1 paddock. Ironically my expertise is confined to a F1 subforum on a BMW site. My superior knowledge has led me to conclude that Redbull & Max = Good and all other teams & drivers = Bad. Take it from me, I'm an expert.

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.
Read the article on GPblog site.

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.
