Of course fans of the competition will call Vasselon's reasoning weak. But whats actually weak is the same repetitive arguments over it.

The race was nearly 3 weeks ago, the test day a month ago. All the rulings, scrutineerings, protests did nothing to stop Toyota running the wing. Seems his reasoning is quite sound if they ran it during the race. You can yell all you want but unless the aco/fia do something, it probably wont change.

I look at it like his explanation. If a gap is closed or opened between the two wing elements as a consequence of flex, whatre you going to do? Test the flex. That test was passed. Thats a nice sweet and short answer by Pascal Vasselon. No way hes going to delve into details of it. So his answer is satisfactory. "We may have some flex" "But like in F1, we passed the deflection test".
