McLaren to debut its own 'upside down' F1 rear wing in Austria

McLaren will debut its own 'upside-down' rear wing at the Austrian Grand Prix, running it during Friday free practice sessions on June 23, 2026. The innovative design, which rotates the wing so the top flap is inverted in straight mode, was first introduced by Ferrari during pre-season testing in Bahrain and raced at the Miami Grand Prix, where Red Bull also unveiled its own version. McLaren's design is still experimental and is expected to make its competitive race debut later in the season.
