People say that the days of innovation in Formula One are over. That we will never again see six-wheels on a car, rear wings that tower over the grandstands, and single-seaters made of anything other than carbon fibre.
Oh really? Check out Sebastian Vettel’s Red Bull touring in for a pit stop at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix after damaging its front wing. And watch closely for the wobble when the front mechanic grabs the nose. Yep, looks like it’s made of rubber. Busted!
