A new front wing appeared at Melbourne after being tested first at Barcelona on March . The new design has a completely new main plane close to the endplates (1) , stepped central zone (2) , additional “r” winglets (3) and redesigned flaps ( lower inner profile, having also a wider movable span) (4) . The team with this new wing seeks improvement on airflow management around the front tyres area and furthermore around the nose sides of the car .
