Italy Tech Corner: Force India Delta Wing





Force India have a new mainplane on their incredibly slim rear wing for the Monza race. The new delta wing shaped element will produce more downforce (larger planform area), in an attempt to counter the DF lost due to the wing having a lower Angle of Attack this weekend (in a bid to reduce drag).

The VJM07 has lost its endplates louvres, also decreasing the rear downforce, to stop vorticies building up at the rear of the car – creating drag.
