Ferrari introduced a new floor in Friday practice for Formula 1’s Japanese Grand Prix. But what it’s trying to achieve and how does it work?
Ferrari has introduced a new floor for their Formula 1 car at the Japanese Grand Prix in order to improve consistency. The modifications focus on losses management and load distribution to increase the car’s efficiency. Charles Leclerc tested the new floor during practice, while Carlos Sainz compared it to the old specification. The new design aims to provide more consistent downforce for the drivers. Ferrari has made small changes to the underfloor leading edge profile and increased the length of the small tunnel in the outer foot area of the floor to achieve a more consistent seal. These aerodynamic adjustments are considered fine-tuning for the car.
