A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Much more simple from behind due to the double floor?

Really lovely detail on the front wing. Also interesting detail on the strake, being similar to what they do with the diffuser, STR seem to be the only team having this

I think most teams are using the front wing as a "diffuser" as such. Most undersides I've seen have had strakes.

But none have the rounded edge on the strakes the Toro Rosso has, similar to what teams do with the diffuser.

They indeed seem to be using the front wing as an diffuser, mainly on the inner side

I didn't see much of STR in the last race, save for Hamilton's double overtake on them. Did they end up racing the bulged fairing exhaust?

@Crucial_Xtreme: RWEP Extensions are the same as in Spain... I'd say it is still the launch-spec.

Here is my illustration of rear wing assembly ran in Mugello (just for comparison of beam wing cascade profile):

It looks like the McLaren style exit on top of the leading edge of the sidepod that RBR and Ferrari use except it helps flow all the way around the sidepod and not just the top. I think.

How can we know if its the 4th fastest car ? We could only rly know that if the same person drove all 12 cars around the same circuit.
