If the FIA says that, it's imho unlikely that fines and penalties are going to be given. According to the articles, the FIA also said that the cars pass the current tests and are therefore not illegal.
So I don't understand when people here say the cars/wings are illegal where the FIA says not up to this moment 
It's not as if the FIA cant figure out how stiff these wings are. It's not as if something is hidden in software or such a thing. There is nothing concealed or anything like that. |
As in the case of Ferrari and their fuel flow cheat, passing a test does not mean compliance with the rules. The rear wing deflection is evident in multiple videos and is a de facto representation of non-compliance with the rules. Passing a test does not mean you comply with the rules.

It is the duty of each competitor to satisfy the FIA technical delegate and the stewards that his automobile complies with these regulations in their entirety at all times during an Event."
