Feb.21 (GMM) Niki Lauda has admitted his opposition to the debuting adjustable rear wings this year.
Drivers will be able to press a button to stall the rear wing this year if they are within 1 second of the car in front and within a 600 metre zone on a straight."This artificial intervention of technology is a poor compromise," said the triple world champion, referring to the supposed problem of overtaking in F1.Referring to the new rear wings, Austrian Lauda - who turns 62 on Tuesday - told Blick newspaper: "Ultimately it's a manipulation of the racing."
