SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Formula One leaders McLaren will modify the rear wings on their cars after talks with the governing FIA at the Singapore Grand Prix following concern from rival teams. The British-based team went top of the standings in Azerbaijan last weekend but drew scrutiny of how the rear wing functioned at speed,

While the McLaren wing passed the FIA's standard static flexibility checks, Marko pointed out that the regulations also prohibit significant bending during actual racing conditions. "That wing bends in the race," he claimed, "and it gives them an advantage."

Oscar Piastri’s win last week at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix put McLaren top in the teams’ standings — the key to F1’s lavish prize money — but teammate Norris only took a small bite out of Verstappen’s lead.
