Never thought about what goes into the brake drums, crazy stuff! Aston Martin’s design with the fins is cool.
the Mclaren front wing looks sick, love the semi-detached upswept flap tips! F1 tech just keeps getting better.
wow, didnt know alpine had 2 different wing configs in Belgium. This is some top notch tech details. Thanks!
interesting to see how each team has their unique approach, Ferrari’s front wing got my attention, gotta say it’s pretty clever.
red Bull’s high downforce rear wing…talk about risky! Hope it pays off.
Haas going for the cost effective route, huh? Fair enough, F1 is expensive enough as it is!
Can’t get enough of this, love all the intricate details, especially bout the Alfa Romeo’s rear wing! So extreme!
