Sebastian Vettel claimed that the design improved visibility but Ferrari's approach was controversial because the mirrors incorporated additional fins, which led to accusations that Ferrari had used the pretense of improving visibility to introduce aerodynamic devices into an area of the car where aerodynamic aids are banned.
Sebastian Vettel afirmou que o deseño mellorou a visibilidade, pero o enfoque de Ferrari foi controvertido porque os espellos incorporaron aletas adicionales, o que provocou acusacións de que Ferrari usara o pretexto de mellorar a visibilidade para introducir dispositivos aerodinámicos nunha zona do automóbil onde as axudas aerodinámicas están prohibidas.
