If you look at the 2 top strakes on the right side of wing as on the pic they look to me shallower than on the other side.
Know more now from what happened ..
MAX went in the pit from wets to Inters . But he requested via the board radio to get a little more downforce on his front wing .
Tire change was normal like usual . But to set more downforce , 2 mechanics are required for the left and right side screw , took 4 sec.
They had to turn 3 clicks . But one mechanic turned the screw to the right and the mechanic on the other side turned the screw to the left .
The previous version of the front wing had the thread to the right . MAX drives now with the new version wing where the thread is to the left .

So , one of the two mechanics turned the screw to the wrong side , and that makes a difference of 6 clicks or 6-7 degrees .
Marko confirmed the whole situation was a mistake...
