The FIA imposed a stiffer load test on front wings to try to limit the amount teams could exploit their movement on track for aerodynamic advantage.

Lewis Hamilton says the introduction of a new rule clamping down on front wing flexibility at the Spanish Grand Prix was "a waste of money" A new front wing in F1 costs about Â100,000 , in addition to research and development resources.

The Ferrari driver added that he "wasn't expecting" anything of the change before coming to Spain .

Verstappen: "It's time to shine in turn one, yeah. Make it three [cars] wide for the pictures. Why not? Why not?" The Dutchman says he will try to put up a 'really, really good fight' But that doesn't mean that we're not going to try, he says.
