On the one hand, yes:

1.3.024 Any device, added or blended into the structure, that is destined to decrease, or which has the effect of decreasing, resistance to air penetration or artificially to accelerate propulsion, such as a protective screen, fuselage form fairing or the like, shall be prohibited.

On the other hand, there is clearly a secret protocol by which Bianchi & Pinarello can have their brake fairings passed, but Cervelo, Giant & Specialized can't. Far be it from me to suggest that Italian bicycle manufacturers get an easier ride from the UCI Equipment Commission, which is made up entirely of Europeans.

As long the cover is within the 8cm "box" of the steerer tube/headtube it's all fine, no geographical favouritism

Just making up the rules as they go along and then issuing "clarifications" when manufacturers who have paid the necessary bribes seem to get favourable treatment.
