FIA yet to test Ferrari wings, as Red Bull gets clean chit

Ferrari's alleged flexing front wings are not yet taken up for scrutiny by FIA, although Red Bull got clearance for theirs yesterday.

Along with Red Bull, the McLaren MP4-25 was also subject to the new stricter tests, during post-practice inspection by the FIA at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit on Friday.

According to Jo Bauer, F1 technical delegate, "(both cars were) found to be in conformity with 2010 FIA Formula 1 technical regulations."

Ferrari too would have to go through the inspection test, the schedule for which is not yet confirmed.

The inspection might be conducted either today post-qualifying or tomorrow post-race.

However, there are reasons to be positive, as Ferrari's front wings were not considered to be as flexing as that of the Red Bull's and thus the team must be confident of it getting the all clearance from FIA.
