showing the floor’s leading edge and the intricate design of the floor fences on the FW45.Photo by: UncreditedOverall, the Williams FW45 featured various modifications throughout the season in order to improve performance. These included the use of tube-like fins on the front brake caliper to reduce weight and improve cooling, a wider inboard section of the front wing compared to rivals, and an S-shaped diveplane arrangement. The team also utilized different rear wing configurations, with a lower downforce variant in the early races and a higher downforce version in Monaco. The car had a disc fairing at both the front and rear brake assemblies, and a newer specification flap distribution for the front wing was introduced at the British Grand Prix. Additionally, different floor cutouts and floor fences were used throughout the season to optimize aerodynamics.”
