Default McLaren's rear wing gets green light

McLaren will be free to use their controversial rear wing in this season's opening grand prix in Bahrain after it was given the all-clear by the FIA.

Rivals Red Bull had asked the governing body to issue a clarification about the MP4-25's nostril above the driver's head that diverts air flow away from the rear wing in order to reduce drag.

The team claimed the wing gave the Woking team an advantage of 6mp/h in straight-line speed.

However, McLaren maintained there was nothing untoward about the wing and they were vindicated on Thursday.

FIA technical chief Charlie Whiting inspected the car in Bahrain and was satisfied that the design doesn't break any regulations.
