The wing’s sole purpose is to make overtaking easier, but the real indication of any success won’t come until racing starts. The top element of the wing has to be able to lift at the front until the slot gap is 50-mm and it’s hoped that the resultant reduction in drag will increase speeds by up to 10 mph. One of the most controversial rule changes for 2011 is the introduction of a moveable rear wing. The ban on double diffusers and the F-duct, for example, forced aerodynamicists to seek new downforce solutions KERS had to be incorporated into the layout and teams had to prepare for the arrival of a new tire supplier, Pirelli, for the first time in five years. New rules, which were only confirmed by the FIA’s World Motorsport Council in June 2010, forced teams to redesign much of the aero components from their 2010 cars.
