Do you mean how the Williams front wing is split into three parts, with each part higher up and further back than the previous one? I really doubt Williams, being such an experienced team would deliberately break the rules in such an obvious way.

Also didn't Renault have something similar last year?

Isnt it straight copy from McLaren's front wing? ;)

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

Its the same configuration as the MP4/20 front wing, which was split into 3.

Could be wrong, but I thought you were allowed as many wing elements as you like at the front. There's a restricted space you're allowed to put them in, but within it, it's as many elements as you like. Correct me if I'm wrong.

remember the article in F1 Racing a few months ago, where Williams designed the car they would/could build if there were no tech regs? any one got that issue handy to scan it and post the pics?




RIP Jules, never to be forgotten. #KeepFightingMichael

I do Muks. Instantly remembered it when rapid_f1 mentioned the no regs car. Haven't got the article to hand thought, it'll be at home somewhere.

If I remember right, they had a ground effect car with six wheels (2 at the front, 4 at the rear), a strange body shape including a flat undertray, continuously variable transmission, and a whole host of banned electronic driver aids, including TC, LC, active suspension, the works. They ran a simulation and they reckoned it would do Silverstone in under a minute, or something ridiculous like that.

the car has 5 wings at the front, correct?
Isnt it if the wings are attatched to the endplate they count as 'wings'
So Williams have 5 each side. And i believe there is a limit of 4 lol.

3 elements, and the other little bits are technically part of the endplates, so don't count even if there is a limit.

ahh thanks
i just found some more info...
and to be classed as a wing element the wing has to stretch from either side or be in between two elements.
hense why BARs 3rd wing was illegal last year.
