Front WingFront Wing EndplateNosePerformanceLocal LoadRevisedConfirmed3 parts

Revised front wing footplate with new vanes arrangement and endplate diveplane addition, optimized wing elements spanwise loading distribution.

New SM mechanism links and integration in the nose, revised nose shape with raised lower surface Evolution of the front wing platform raced so far, with enhanced tip flow features coming with front wheel wake control benefits as well as increased aero balance capacity. More integrated SM mechanism links returns tidier centre line flow features. It also comes with flap lips modulation.

Reduced keel volume.

Redesigned front floor leading edge profiles and claws, front floor board elements optimisation (horizontal and vertical ones). Optimisation of rearward floor corner winglets, reprofiling of diffuser sidewall cutout. Updated diffuser winglet angle of attack and diffuser / tail expansion profile Benefiting from an improved onset flow quality, this entire floor update is targeting overall aerodynamic load increase across the main car operating window as well as flow features robustness improvements together with improved flow topology and energy towards the rear corners
