Ferrari has revealed that the front wing it has brought to this weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix is catered towards widening its 2024 Formula 1 car’s operating window.
Ferrari has successfully bounced back from their development setback at the Spanish Grand Prix, rectifying the high-speed bouncing issue that hindered their championship contention. The team introduced an updated floor at the Italian Grand Prix, leading to a victory for Charles Leclerc in Baku. Despite the uncommon practice of implementing new components at a street circuit, Ferrari has expedited the release of a revised front-wing design before the autumn break. This modification was prompted by the FIA mandating all front wings comply with regulations due to concerns about McLaren’s version. Ferrari’s performance engineer Jock Clear explained that the new front-wing design aims to enhance downforce and balance on high-downforce circuits like Singapore. The team’s recent success and driver confidence at challenging street circuits are attributed to the improved stability and drivability of their SF-24 challenger compared to its predecessor.
