Marko confirms: 'FIA has now picked up on that'

Max Verstappen had problems with his DRS during the second free practice. Red Bull had to repair the Dutchman's rear wing several times during the session.
According to Helmut Marko, there is no reason to panic. "That was a technical error," he assures on Motorsport-Magazin.com. "Of course, it's all on the limit here and when DRS is then used, there are incredible forces on it. There are also unbelievable bumps here. That will be amplified just as much for tomorrow."
It could be seen how the rear wing of Verstappen's Red Bull wobbled when the DRS was open, something that obviously shouldn't happen. The team seems to have fixed the problem by now.
FIA to look at rear wing
Marko confirms that the FIA will also look at the rear wings. Red Bull suspects Mercedes of having an illegal rear wing. "The centre blade of the rear wing is still in our sights and if I understand correctly, the FIA has now picked it up as well." Marko gives no further details.
