You could incorrectly argue that. The regulations state the wing has to pass a series of static load tests. Theirs passed these tests and was therefor legal.
Passing a test doesn’t make something legal otherwise Lance Armstrong would still hold all his Tour de France titles. But alas this is an old argument which as been done to death so there’s nothing to gain by going down that rabbit hole.
except that with the 'flexiwing', the test was the
only quantitative mark provided to judge how much a wing could flex, which is a completely different situation from the being on doping or not. Passing the test meant, by definition, being within the limit. Until the FIA decided to change the limits mid-season, which is problematic. But hey, there's a whole topic on this elsewhere.
