Ferrari F2012

The French wing is in background. Was it ever tested in free practice?
I wonder how the French test was seemingly wasted.

[Sevach]

The new endplate kinda reminds me of that one wing they tested, tested and tested some more... but never ran.

Hopefully they fixed it.

To my eye those look like intakes rather than exhausts. Or is perspective playing tricks on me?

The 2 large shark gills?

Been there most of the season.

In the picture above the footplate detail before the rear wheel is very interesting. they have pushed the ruels to the limit a la rbr by adding a radiused area and they have brought the external part of the footplate as close as possible to the wheel, almost touching it. Good exploitation of a rule loophole

Yeah..it looks more like intakes....hmmmm what's going on ferrari...

You mean this additional/"conditional" cooling hole... on that pic below (Korean GP) is in "cold" (aprox. T = 293 K) weather covered with small plate...

they are the holes for the nuts to bolt the wing to the floor, they're usually covered with tape(@ScarbsF1)

F2012 with removed floor (thanks to Scarabs who noticed this one).

I know I am struggling to see what holes members are saying is an intake or outtake all the holes present have been there for ages. The one at the side of the exhaust is always seen in pre race pics but is covered as well sometimes.

Hi, maybe the holes pabloeing and huntresa refer to could be the ones encircled and pointed in this picture:



Just a guess.

I don't think it's DDRS á la Red Bull, but maybe some kind of passive F-duct?

[thisisatest]

i believe those holes circled are holes to access the mounting screws or nuts. they fasten vertically to the beam wing and to the floor. the car has these on other parts, such as the turning vanes by the radiator intakes.

BBC F1 technical analyst Gary Anderson
"Ferrari have two different rear wings here and they're back-to-backing that. But they've just done a straight-line test so they really should know which is best. I call that wasting time at a race meeting. They also have two different front wings here. Now, they're a bit more tricky to be sure about." BBC
