Likely scenario is that he starts the sprint race from the pits. After all the stewards have his wing.
If Merc then took a new pu it would at the very least also be a pitlane start on Sunday. Gasly took a new pu after his crash in the Italian sprint race and that's what he had to do. Odds are Merc won't do that.

It would be absurd to claim that Max caused Lewis' wing to be altered in any way by 'his' examination.

He must have been give a heads up by someone to actually have something to 'test' the gap with more than just a glove or finger if I had to guess maybe one of their high res photo guys.

Max in violation of the sporting code where only officials can touch in Parc Ferme. 2.5.1 Inside the Parc Fermé, only the officials assigned may enter. No operation, checking, tuning or repair is allowed unless authorised by the same officials or by the applicable regulations. Penalties include fines, reprimands, grid positions, deletion of qualifying laps, just about all the FIA's tools up to and including disqualification, suspension, exclusion Just posting this for reference Where was the Buxton alert? I can't unsee that dooshbag now?!?!!??!

Mercedes have been given the okay to change Hamilcheat's wing for P2 as the investigation is not yet concluded.

A rear wing produces ~400 pounds of downforce. So it makes perfect sense Max damaged it with half a gram of finger force.
Yeah give Max a penalty or whatever for touching the car. But Hamilton must be DQ for blatant cheating.
Otherwise Red Bull must Alonsoed the rules for the rest of the season.

Karun Chandhok @karunchandhok For those asking if Max could have manipulated the wing, let’s all be clear that the wings are designed to sustain hundreds of kilos of load without breaking.
Andre the giant could sit on it! As fit and strong as Max is, I doubt he managed to bend the wing…. 8:04 AM · Nov 13, 2021·Twitter for iPhone

Ted finally said something of value. His piece on the DRS wing opening measuring tool and how it works was pretty good. I didn't know there was a minimum, measurable force it must take to push the device through the slot gap.
