Anyway looking at the video, it certainly doesn't look like a moveable aerodynamic device. It looks like a flow guide vane and not a downforce generating device. Something to perhaps help smooth out some areas of rough flow over other parts of the car. I certainly don't see it twisting relative to speed. Anyone else agree?

You can't just call something with any aero-elastics a moveable aerodynamic device. Either way it's a video from a test session (assuming my Spanish is still okay and that's the title of the youtube video), so doesn't show McLaren doing anything wrong.
