Aston Martin's modified rear wing has been described as 'game-changing.' F1
“That effectively may mimic last year’s rear wing with a higher downforce, it obviously squares out the end plates. So it’s like a 2021 rear wing. I absolutely love it.
“It catches more air. It stops the spillover of air from that rear wing main plate out to be lost or not worked by the rear wing to do any kind of downforce generation that we’ve seen on every other cars. [It’s] stopped the outwash, stopped the spillover and to regain a lot of the downforce they’ve lost since last year’s rear wing.”
The unveiling of the updated rear wing has unsurprisingly turned heads of other teams in the paddock and it would not be the first time Aston Martin have been accused of bending the rules. Before the Spanish Grand Prix, they unveiled their modified car which looked strikingly similar to Red Bull’s but, despite threats of investigation from Christian Horner and Helmut Marko,Kravitz reports that it is the same this time round and that Aston Martin consulted with the sport’s governing body at every stage.
“Now, is it legal?” Kravtiz asked. “Well, all the other teams of course as you can imagine say that it’s not the FIA’s intention of what they wanted these new rear wing rules to do but Aston Martin say that they have consulted with the FIA throughout the rear wing’s developments and had it approved at every stage.”
