In Maranello, engineers led by Diego Tondi have extensively redesigned the new front wing, debuted in Singapore. First of all, it is possible to notice that the design of the main plane has been modified and now features a more pronounced spoon shape in the central area compared to the previous version. The intent is to open a central blowing under the nose to direct an airflow channel towards the lower part of the floor, leading that flow towards the entrance of the Venturi Channels.
Additionally, the flaps' design has been altered to enhance the upwash effect in the center and the outwash effect at the edges, a concept reminiscent of Ferrari's SF-23 wing used early in the season before being replaced in Austria. The junction between the front wing flaps and the side endplate has been modified, drawing inspiration from the work carried out by the engineers in Woking, with the front wing that McLaren also introduced in Austria (but this year).
Beyond aerodynamics, Ferrari has started exploring carbon element flexing, following weeks of discussions with the FIA. Historically, the SF-24 featured a rigid front wing, but Team Principal Frederic Vasseur and Tondi are now pushing the boundaries to match rivals. Strengthening the 'Composite Materials' department with talent from other teams has facilitated this effort. While replicating McLaren and Mercedes' advancements in one update is challenging, this marks a clear step in Ferrari's ongoing development for next year as well, pending any regulatory changes from the FIA.
