F1's much vaunted flexi-wing rules change are finally coming into force from the Spanish Grand Prix.
After complaints from various quarters, the FIA announced earlier this year that, from the Spanish GP, tougher flexi-wing checks were to be introduced from the Barcelona event.
Flexi-wings have, and will always be, an ongoing debate in F1, with this latest episode erupting last summer around the time of the Belgian Grand Prix.
The FIA started to monitor the flexing of some of the leading teams, but every team has passed all the tests performed to date.
But in a bid to try and stamp out flexi-wings, for now, tougher load tests are being introduced from the Spanish event on the front-wings, but will it have any impact?
