"Craig Scarborough, a respected Formula 1 technical analyst, is convinced Ferrari’s controversial front wing will not make it to the first race of the 2023 Formula 1 season and was included on images of the launch-spec SF-23 purely to divert attention away from other areas of the car. ..."

Australian Grand Prix chief Andrew Westacott told Melbourne’s Herald Sun on Monday that he had “positive feedback from the FIA and Formula 1 that technically speaking a fourth DRS zone will be implemented”.
