WINGSWINGS• The front wings on the car can produce 25-The front wings on the car can produce 25-

40% of the cars downforce.Each front 40% of the cars downforce.Each front aerofoil is made a mainplane (1) running aerofoil is made a mainplane (1) running almost the whole width of the car almost the whole width of the car suspended from the nose (4). Onto this are suspended from the nose (4). Onto this are fitted two aerofoil flaps (2), one on each fitted two aerofoil flaps (2), one on each side, which are the adjustable parts of the side, which are the adjustable parts of the wing.wing.

SuspensionSuspension• In recent years, suspension members In recent years, suspension members

have been streamlined into an aerofoil have been streamlined into an aerofoil shape. According to the rules however, shape. According to the rules however, they are not allowed to produce they are not allowed to produce downforce, and are simply shaped that downforce, and are simply shaped that way to reduce drag, and to keep the way to reduce drag, and to keep the flow heading for the sidepods relatively flow heading for the sidepods relatively undisturbed undisturbed

Barge BoardsBarge Boards• These devices These devices

were first seen were first seen in 1993 and their in 1993 and their purpose is to purpose is to smooth the smooth the airflow around airflow around the car and into the car and into the radiator the radiator intakes intakes

Brake CoolingBrake Cooling• Modern racecar Modern racecar

brakes can heat up brakes can heat up until they are red until they are red hot. This is where hot. This is where aerodynamics aerodynamics comes into play comes into play with the addition of with the addition of small air intakes to small air intakes to bring cooling air to bring cooling air to the brakes the brakes

component for the component for the performance of a performance of a Formula One Formula One racecar.These devices racecar.These devices contribute to contribute to approximately a third of approximately a third of the car’s total down the car’s total down force, while only force, while only weighing about 7 kg weighing about 7 kg
