I simply do not see it. The carbon part is the leading edge of a wing shaped profile but I do not see a gurney.

Yeah! I suposed that is right side of upper wing element! I also think wing is some mixture of previous Lotus and red Bull wing (nice curved). I also think that it is two cascade wing.

But the most strange thing on it is that, this wing upper element looks like they have very low angeled? (Very similar angle like those crossectioned little wings with low agle of atack in 2008...)

Yet, I just did. It's a very innovative front wing design. We might even expect other top teams to be copying this concept.

Looks like its a flexi wing too. should make about 100kg of Downforce at 100mph. I agree, that should assist them in making their first foray into Q3.

Trolling is a art people nevar forget.

Nice to see a piece of 2012, wouldn't mind if they'd all just be able to hurry up and run the darn things!

THIS IS THE GP2/11 CAR BUILT BY DALLARA, NOT THE CT-01. MY BAD

Pictures taken from their Caterham Racing page. Surprisingly the blade-type roll hoop is replaced with the normal roll hoop. The front look like RB6

Thx Paul!





Hmm remind me on last year variations from Red Bull... If i connect this with this picture...


I am preatty sure in that they want to much as posibble copy red bull FLEX wing...

I've got exactly the same impression. It's giving us hints, that it might be similar to late RB7 wing.

[raymondu999]

The cascade seems the same like last year though.

yeah! thats the impression i get too..at least the cascade looks like last year's

[amouzouris]

actually its missing the CNN sponsor sticker

[raymondu999]

Yes; but when was the last time a team launched a car with a new-spec front wing? Most launch with end-of-last-year spec wings

[amouzouris]

true...so can we assume that they found the lost downforce from the EBD so they can use last year's front wing (or even a new, better one) without upsetting the balance?

They don't really need a new wing for less downforce, it's easier to adjust the current one.

oops...i got carried away by my optimism

[allstaruk08]

maybe a new front wing with less downforce that better optimises the airflow
