Since its introduction in Bahrain, the protruding outer lip (in red) on Ferrari's wheel rims has been the subject of much discussion, with rivals questioning whether it constitutes an illegal moveable aerodynamic device - the movement being the wheel's rotation. Ferrari say the lip is a functional...
An interesting change for San Marino. The base of the spoon at the centre of the main profile is flat. The profile then tapers sharply upwards away from the nosecone before flattening out. There is then an additional upward step before it flattens again as it joins the endplate. This design has...
For Imola, the width of the main profile has been reduced, while the horizontal section of the endplates has been increased by the same amount - around 4cm. The endplate change dramatically reduces the vortices created by the front wheels, while the reduced width of the main profile cuts drag,...
Part of the revised aero package for Imola. Though the boards themselves look little different, the changes are in the cross sections of the winglets attached to them. The lower winglet has been slightly enlarged to better manage airflow passing under the car. The upper one is also slightly bigger,...
Part of extensive changes to the Ferrari at Imola, designed to improve performance and overall balance. New endplates sport a flat upper profile instead of the previous sculpted one, with a horizontal triangular fin at the rear (1). This improves airflow management close to the wheels. The...
A slightly different configuration for Imola. The double-decker concept has been revised, with the additional upper profiles shortened by around 5 cm, to reduce drag and improve top speed on this fast circuit. The key factor is the reduced surface area exposed to the airflow. The angle of the wing...
