You are seeing the numerical noise around 1.
Try
plot(f,-4,4,ymin=0,ymax=2)
Interestingly, I do not see numerical noise in (2/3*(cos(x)^2 + cos(x-(2/3)*pi)^2 + cos(x-(4/3)*pi)^2)).plot((-1, 1)), but I do see it in (2/3*(cos(x)^2 + cos(x-(2/3)*pi)^2 + cos(x-(4/3)*pi)^2)).plot((-4,4)).
Go figure...
Look: u(x)=cos(x)^2
v(x)=cos(x-(2/3)*pi)^2
w(x)=cos(x-(4/3)*pi)^2 and plot
plot((v+w+u)*2/3,-4,4)
