Verstappen takes old rear wing in place of ‘super-dangerous’ upgrade
SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium: Max Verstappen will race with a conventional rear wing at this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix as Red Bull reacted to his claims that their ‘Macarena’ wing was “super-dangerous.” The four-time world champion spoke out after crashing in the final stages of the British Grand Prix, prompting a controversial safety car ending to the race, two weeks ago. That crash followed a similar accident in practice in Austria a week earlier. Ferrari mechanics coined the name ‘Macarena’ for the rotating wing’s dancing action after they trialled it in pre-season testing and some practices.
